Welcome to Individual Ideology

Question everything...know nothing.
Politics and Religion for too long have attempted to define the most complicated and ever changing facets of our minds, our individual ideologies. We have been shoved into boxes and labeled like a package of Rice-a-Roni. We as human beings must feel like we are a part of a whole. That is why we ask the questions; liberal or conservative? Democrat or Republican? Religious or spiritual? When in reality not one of these terms we have coined could ever truly define who we are. Now is the time to rip off our labels, climb out of our boxes and reclaim our individual ideologies.

If you would like to discuss a specific topic, let me know in the commentary section.

Religulous



Thoughts invoked by Bill Maher's documentary, Religulous.

Is religion ridiculous?
Is faith, faith in God or faith in man?
Can you believe in God or a higher power without the guidelines of religion?
Can you be a moral human being without religion?
Are religion and blind faith dangerous?
What if you have great religious faith and follow every doctrine of your church only to discover you picked the wrong religion?
Do you now go to hell?
If you are religious, do you believe everything your church has always believed?
If your church still preached what it did 200 years ago, would you still be a member?
Since churches are created by man, and men make mistakes, how do you know which aspects of your religion are truly part of God's plan?
What if there is no God?
What if there is?
Has God ever talked to you?
How can you tell the difference between God and your conscience?
Is the sense of right and wrong taught through religion or is it innate in every human being?
What would happen if there was no more religion?
Would there be less war?
Would there be less judgment?
Would we finally see Peace on Earth?

I don't know. You tell me.
