What to discuss here Sikhs. Discipline, willpower, perseverance triumvirate god. DPW. Worship of concepts and ideas, hammer, anvil, and . Rituals and rites involving discipline, etc. Thrice daily practices of willpower, etc. A true religion is one which does not contain verifiably or observably false precepts and tenets, and is not based on falsehoods that are promulgated to be true. Tales and fables that are created for the religion are specifically not taken to be factually literal, but rather to exemplify the precepts of that religion in a elegant or powerful way in a story form. There are no fundamental falsehoods in a true religion. How to create a god.
The market as a god. Symbolized by a miniature agora.
What shall I call my type of religion? That of worshipping ideas and concepts, and practicing tenets based from them
The worship of concepts and ideas. There are an infinite number of gods, because there are an infinite number of ideas.
In the name of Reason.
Take the pros of being atheist and religious, and eliminate the cons of each.
Aldous Huxley "And this revival of religion will at the same time be a revolution. From being an activity mainly concerned with symbols, religion will be transformed into an activity concerned mainly with experience and intuition-an everyday mysticism underlying and giving significance to everyday rationality, everyday tasks and duties, everyday human relationships." (he was talking about how newly designed drugs will make people go on trips and become religious or spiritual)
Religion should be of at least some practical value. It should direct actions and behavior in useful ways.
Being virtuous is a consistent system. One virtue for example should not nullify another, though there may be some uncertainties and a kind of push and pull between being honest for example and being careful or protective of something.
Many moral ideas have a practical, personal benefit aspect to them as well.
Have you seen the light? The light of Reason and the Scientific Way. Also, the truth about yourself and the path to betterment.
Astrolabe as a symbolic representation of Scientific Method and therefore an object of worship, among others.
"Knowledge is freedom". "May the power of Reason guide you". Perhaps say a grace or chant except it is before you engage studying rather than meal time.
Pyramid of Self Actuated Development.
Fulfilling your natural duties and acting upon your responsibilities, to your fellow man, to society, as a cop, as a parent, as a citizen of a country.
You may be required to wear a watch. Or eat a type of diet. Etc.
How do you define morality?
Developing oneself through religion. Buddhist enlightenment, Puritan frugality.
Which is more important, your temporary life, or realizing your dreams? Your life, or success, freedom, and victory?
Combining all the cultures' gods. Gathering them together.
The religion needs to work. It needs to sustain itself with worshippers. It needs to be able to last.
Religion which provides one a competitive edge.
Worship of gravity, time, money, masturbation, socialism, a civilization.
Really worshipping the Universe and Nature, and the specific gods are aspects of this. It is something like Hinduism, except scientific as well.
Define ideas and terms more precisely and with as much exactness, this enhances clarity of what one is speaking of. Language should generally be precise and well defined, with a large vocabulary and logical structure. Is creative structure better though?
Religion...steroids for the soul. The power of belief is a fascinating thing. It can be used for self-betterment. It can empower you.
You have a duty to make your day full and interesting. What did I do today? What did I learn? Accomplish things every day. Absorb life experiences and sensations like a hungry beast. Seek novel experiences. Revel in the memories you are creating. Eat life up.
If math be for us, who be against us? Math is on our side.
Worshipping a meaning of existence, a path of life philosophy.
Worship of skills, of science.
Religion of survival.
The busy bee.
My purpose is something like, train my mind and my body to the height of perfection that i can, to go on adventures and explore the great big world around, to attain wealth and power, and to enter beautiful women.
God of memory, god of ice skating, the spiritual side of it all.
The cheetah. The turtle.
Founding the modern religion movement, living without money movement.
Worship of the road.
