Having a reverence for God and prayer is a good quality in people as long as it's not attached to some fanatical religious ideology.
I think when someone gets to a point where they can have peace and be graceful about their reverence for God, that's when life starts going more in one's favor.
Fearfully practicing a religious ideology and shoving it down peoples' throats, humiliating oneself in various ways (praying several times a day face down on a rug for example, ROFL!) and doing other things that take empowerment away from individuals... is very much a poison to any civilization. That's not 'faith'... it's enslavement.
What you describe is a gentle sort of faith and a quiet, but intensely powerful belief and knowing.
Well, thank you.
I do feel a deep connection and personal understanding of God. I believe there is only one God. I don't buy into religions because I think every single one of them is more concerned about their church than actually helping people be free and to understand our creator. They enslave more people into mental prisons than they've ever enlightened, in my opinion.
