My input on religion, without reading any posts here (not enough time)
I view religion as a place and belief to hide away from the "truth" the one and only truth which is in spiritual concepts PURE LOVE. We have lost our touch with our true selves. We need to reconnect within unleash you. It is important because humanity at this time is going through tremendous change one being increased spiritual awarness now we must convince them to practise and teach them pure love and get rid of religion and Faith and any belief system.
Any types of religion such as Christianity, Hindouism, Paganism must perish if humanity is to unite ance create a new beautiful world that we've been polluting and destroying since we've existed.
Its the inevetible folks, those who do not cooperate will perish and those who do and find it within and enligthen themselves to the purest level of love possible will then be able to transcend into this new world.
