Religion in a Nutshell
Jul. 9th, 2024 08:23 amMy spiritual path in life has, to date, wandered near or through each of the following:
- Christianity: Earth is a test for sorting beings into good and bad.
- Taoism: Earth is. (What more do you want?)
- Buddhism: Earth is a nightmare from which one ought to awaken.
- Occultism: Earth is a kindergarten where beings learn the basics of how to live.
- Neoplatonism: Earth is a borderland where exiled divinities eke out a meager subsistence.
While each of these has a fragment of truth to it, none of them have been entirely satisfactory to me. I was pondering, today, what I might say if somebody asked me to describe my religion in a single sentence. This is what I came up with:
- Earth is a womb where baby angels gestate before birth.
