If you travel to many different countries, you quickly learn that buildings people reside in have many different names. In America, it is our "home" or "apartment", in other countries it may be an "adobe" or "hut" or "castle". Though there are subtle differences it’s core remains the same; it is shelter.
What if all the religions of the world, are simply individual perspectives of the same God, with different names. A being wearing many masks, due to interpretations, the understanding of different cultures, and the misunderstanding human race as a whole. What if every culture’s perspective on God is not meant to be defended or justified.
What if the great destiny of humanity is simply to learn from each other, and what if we combined all of Earth’s religous perspectives? I wonder if each would be a piece of a larger puzzle, that when intertwined, would reveal the true face of God...

| In my humble opinion, you have reached a true concept of our beholding God. I smile as I wonder have you gave Him reason to smile. . . surely you have. peace elle |

Makes one think indeed.
Myself I do not believe in any organization of religion.
I feel it takes away from the true teachings.
I feel each of us needs to follow our heart and soul and know him within ourselves rather than have a group decide the rules of the one we call God.
Nice write
