My beliefs are in the hearts of religions/beliefs which are very similar, not in the doctrine.END CADSYS QUOTE...

got it it took a few times of re reading it with the answere you gave.....But basiclie what you are saying is from your extensife studie you have found a lot of similarities in the belifes at the hart of any religion but religions doctrines is what devides and seperates the religions. So not the core belifes... couse their similare but the doctinasion (rules and culture of the religion)is what creates the diffrence between people ways of worship and wrights and wrongs.....

CASEY IS MY UNDERSTANDING OK RE THE ABOVE AND WHAT YOU MENT

I might be misebntrepriting what your saying to my way of thinking..it as its something similare to what i belive and have said heer (or one other of the threads)

Also i wasent sure if it was within your hart, your religions hart or all religons harts that you weer first refairing to...but at the hart of the religons is what you ment

Its not something i have officalie studied as you have but informal studie and my own research showed me the same thing. Is your studie for ministrie a gateway to becoming a minister of such....

I would love to see the basic principles of all religions upheld or in some form unified.....into some cohesive whole, based on the love/respect of god, the love of man/woman, the love of earth..etc. something that would unite people and not devide them.....

a new religion for those that would want it taken from all the great texts core belifes about the world and afterlife, more as a guidline for living as a moral productive respectfull life....

I like the new age movement and their a lot of similarities between diffrent philosiphes ....but its a bit fragmented...yea it makes the indivduel search hard to find or make sence of it all but it lacks communite and a commonalitie of teaching...
