StudentofUnifying Life	Posted Oct 3rd, 2009 at 2:44PM I don't think any religion is real. Spirituality, on the other hand... Rated: +2Vote for this!
artistaeli	Posted Oct 3rd, 2009 at 2:44PM Religion is a dirty word to me. It implies control of the masses by the few who rarely practice what they preach. Spirituality however is different and free. It is about searching for hidden answers and turning magic and imagination into provable reality though the use of universal knowledge. Rated: +2Vote for this!
luxor	Posted Oct 3rd, 2009 at 1:23PM In the "spiritual sense"- 2 or more who worship the same deity,. On the legal side; real religion is postulated as a (501 based business, aka (non-profit entity)...as for what I personally think; "real religion is something you choose to live in the open as well as behind closed doors. If your religion is different behind closed doors as apposed to your outdoor life- then your religion is "not real". Rated: +2Vote for this!
