Religion

[close] A space for thoughtful discussion on theology and beyond: meaning, morality, and the depths to understanding human life. This group welcomes diverse traditions, philosophical inquiry, and reflective dialogue about sacred texts, inner life, ethical questions, and the role of religion in the modern world. The goal is not preaching or debate for victory, but understanding, exploration, and respectful exchange of ideas. Remember that respect comes first. Disagree with ideas, not with people. No insults, ridicule, or hostility toward beliefs or non-belief. Feel free to share perspectives, interpretations, and experiences, but this is a discussion space, not a place to persuade others to adopt a faith, so basically no preaching or conversion attempts. Stay thoughtful and on topic, posts should relate to theology, meaning, morality, sacred texts, literature, psychology of belief, or religion in society. Interpretations are welcome, claims of absolute authority are not. All comments and conversations must be in English. Don’t hesitate to open a topic under any theme that has already been featured. If you’re unsure where your topic belongs, you’re welcome to ask in the Open Discussion under the thread titled Topic Creation. And don't forget that we also have a Cafetaria for casual conversation or introductions in the Open Discussion section.

[close] Behind every human being is a soul that is seeking to reawaken its awareness of God and fulfill its purpose and destiny to be a loving companion of God. You are invited to share your thoughts, opinions, and questions on this eternal quest to restore God consciousness from the perspective of the spiritual philosophy of the Edgar Cayce readings. The comments and discussions of this group should focus on spiritual topics developed in the readings and life readings material, and not medical readings and health issues. Topics for discussion can include concepts of mind, consciousness, creation of the soul and the physical universe, the soul-body interface, and human existence. Other acceptable topics include the relation between the readings and traditional Christianity, the concept of reincarnation, and scientific discoveries as they pertain to cosmology, the mind, and consciousness.

[close] Modern Day Witches is a group for anyone who practices witchcraft, regardless of any religion or spirituality, to share helpful and insightful books on the craft or related topics.
