Religion is not equal to Spirtuality.

Say each "religion" has one grain of truth in it. If it is truth, would not all major religions acknowlege it? How could they not. Look at what they all teach... everything you see, ask

Is this true? Is this even real?

who am i? am I sure?

What is gravity? Is it really true, because they print it in books? How can you prove to yourself that gravity or the "concept" of gravity exists? Prove to yourself that it is real... really truth, so you know without question it is true.

What do you see in nature? Male, female... happiness, sadness. Life, Death. How could God be "almighty" and all good, if he is everywhere and everything? Would not death and sorrow be a part of God, if he was everywhere? If there was just God, would he/her/it be "all good"? How could you tell the differance between good and bad, if bad did not exist? How do you tell if there is "space" in your apartment, if the walls did not exist?

How could one live without death, or die without life?

What if, say, all beliefs where false? Say anything you could put into words was a complete and utter lie? What then, what could you believe in?

What does "there is no spoon" REALLY mean?

and no, you won't find these answers on the internet, or from your teachers or from the preist in church. There is only one place to find them.
