HOW TO TELL IF YOUR BELIEF SYSTEM IS BOGUS.

1)It preaches/teaches absolute truth.

There is no such thing on the relative plane. There are provable and unprovable realities. Truth is relative and individually held. Truth may change as one gains experience and wisdom. What may have been true before, may not be true today based upon increased insight, experience and wisdom. Truth is whatever works for the individual to propel them toward higher realities of beingness. The ultimate reality in 3D – ALL IS ONE.


2)It presents life as a win/lose, good/bad, saved/lost proposition.

The goal of life is in the process of living, sharing, learning, creating. In other words, the goal is in living life to the fullest. There is no single goal or destination on or off this planet. Life always continues between and through periods of rest and activity, through form and formlessness.


3)It provides a man-like superhero/savior that is all determining and all necessary to find your ultimate destination.

Again, there is no goal or destination. Human life, at this time and on this planet, exists and expresses through an ongoing process of rest and activity (multiple incarnations). We are eternal in nature as ensouled beings. There is no way we can be lost in the process, nor do we need to be saved from anything that might impinge upon our soul. We are infinite beings. Mini source/creators capable of unlimited creative ability - individuated fragments of source/creator.


4)It discounts as false, anything and everything that does not support the belief system – especially when argued that the belief system was instituted by an infallible source (whether a book or an entity) as a matter of faith.


It is not for us to label or determine what is right or wrong for other individuals. People find and use their own tools or truth that compels them to identify and act. All is subjective in the area of belief, and thus, faith/belief cannot define nor determine what is true for all people. The key to true knowing is to become an exponent of reality by expanding and purifying awareness to map to all that is. At the highest states of being/consciousness/awareness, beliefs cease to exist - for all is encapsulated in beingness.


5)You look at people around you as either being closer or further from “truth” by how well the align or misalign with your truth. You look at others as good or bad, right or wrong, righteous or evil, saved or lost for all eternity based upon what they believe or fail to believe.

The most insidious/divisive byproduct of belief systems is the relative psychological disposition it confers upon its adherents that impels them to segregate themselves from those unlike them and moreover, to look at others unlike them as less than themselves, especially through the eyes of their created “god”. Looking at the history of continuous bloodshed on this planet, competing beliefs is ever near the core of all disharmony and contentiousness.
