Religion - For the sheep. Sorry, but thats the way I see it, maybe Im wrong. I see the religious institutions manipulating society for their own good, for no other reason than to perpetuate the church, and to get even BIGGER. And the congregations go for it, they eat it up. Church's have the potential of being a very good thing for society, yet they always fall a little short of the mark.
Spirituality - Its essential for me to believe in God, or a Higher Power, even if the only reason is so that I dont think Im God. Im perfectly capable of running around all day thinking that I know what is best for everyone, myself included.
Well guess what? I dont.
And as long as I believe in a Higher Power then there is a pretty good chance that Im not gonna tell you how to run your life.
Karma - I absolutely think its true, Ive seen way too many 'coincidences' for that stuff to be random. I used to be a, umm... not very nice person, and guess what, really bad stuff happened to me all the time.
I also believe that Karma is entirely based on Intentions. Not actions. I think that if you try to do the right thing, then you are in good shape, no matter what else happens.
