The only thing we would believe in would be a God. Whether or not God is the source behind the Big Bang, or the creator of everything, or if He is simply the unknown particle or force science is yet to discover. There would be no bounds to what God is. God would just be whatever we're searching for. There would be no laws, commandments, churches, books, teachings. Absolutely no one would be converted. It would simply be a religion where we can all contribute in our own way. Please don't bash this question, as it is more a thought to ponder. I mean, does God have to be defined considering that if he is almighty and all powerful, he is not bound by our imaginations and mental constructs of who and why He is. He simply is.

Please excuse the my part of the question, as there would be NO heirarchy of faith.

Well you are on your way there I think!
This is the right way to progress in self realisation, I see you understand that God is "undefinable" "unknowable" and simply "everywhere"!
The funny thing about this is that God is literally "everywhere" spread about before you but you do not perceive! So I say read more search and do not stop searching for the more you look the greater the vision you will have to know that there is even more to know then you could have ever imagined and when you see that you will realise that you know nothing as you begin to see the mountain of potential understanding wisdom and knowledge spreads out before you endless in it vastness, and you ask why did I not realise this before...what I AM is trapped in side of me and cannot see for fear is holding me. The glimpses that I see are always telling me that you only will see if you let go of me... for where I AM is one and one only is me.
so you see your God is very much here with me!

too late its called Deism
Deism is a religious philosophy and movement that became prominent in England, France, and the United States in the 17th and 18th centuries. Deists typically reject supernatural events (prophecy, miracles) and divine revelation prominent in organized religion, along with holy books and revealed religions that assert the existence of such things. Instead, deists hold that correct religious beliefs must be founded on human reason and observed features of the natural world, and that these sources reveal the existence of one God or supreme being.
Peace Be with You

you`ve gone and high jacked my religion except that i have a few more rules which are maybe my commandments to my self these are some of the important ones but not necessarily in the same order
1do as i would be done by
2 have kindness and compassion
3 show tolerance
4 be true to myself
5respect all of nature
but seeing as you are dead against rules you can be a break away Denomination so long as we can accept each other
i quite like mine to have restricted membership (me) it saves on the squabbling

I'm with ya. Although, I believe there is more to a religion than the "God". Remember other religions have Enlightenment (which could be considered an alternative to God also).

We swear that we've created the guy or woman and all of us be responsive to what his soul whispers to him. we are closer to him than even his jugular vein. (sixteen) considering the two scribes are sitting on each of his shoulders, he does not utter a notice which isn't recorded today by the watchful scribes. (17) The man or woman will relatively experience the affliction of dying (18) and (the guy or woman will learn), "that's what you were attempting to run removed from". (19) The trumpet will relatively be sounded. this can be the day (approximately which you) have been threatened. (20) each soul would be observed (by an angel) in the back of him and yet another as a witness. (21) (he will learn), "You have been thoroughly heedless of this present day. we are transforming into rid of the veil out of your eyes and your imaginative and prescient will now be sharp and robust". (22) His (angelic) better half will say, "(Lord), the checklist of his deeds is with me and is all waiting". (23) (they'll learn,) "Throw into hell each persistent disbelievers, (24) who's an opponent of sturdy, a suspicious transgressor (25) and an idol worshipper. Throw him into intense torment". (26) His satanic better half will say, "Our Lord, i did not deceive him, yet he himself went off course". (27) The Lord will say, "do not argue in My presence; I had relatively sent you a warning. (28) No notice is to be exchanged in My presence. i'm not unjust to My servants". (29) On that day we will ask hell, "Are you finished?" that's going to say, "Are there any further?" (30) Paradise would be delivered close to for the pious ones (31) (and that they'll learn), "that's what you have been promised. that's for each guy or woman who grew to become in repentance to God, saved his promise, (32) feared the Beneficent God in secret, and grew to become to Him with a repenting coronary heart". (33) (they'll learn), "enter Paradise in peace and, therein, you will stay continually". (34) they'd have therein despite they choose and could obtain from Us greater rewards (35)

It's fine to have your own philosophy and beliefs, but why do you want to "convert" others to your beliefs? That is the problem with religion, people are not satisfied believing, they feel that have to "save souls" and convert the "heathens" and the "infidels."

And yet to define Him according to your limited understanding, to disregard His laws, commandments, teachings, worship, and His word the Bible... to do all this is nothing more than putting Him in a box... is it not? No thanks... I'll stick with the truth and follow Jesus.

If your God isn't defined, why classify this as organized religion?
I think you're agnostic.
