The way I did is that I came to discover my own higher self within me.We all have a human soul that is free from all religious bondage and dead letter laws.Since this awareness I have found that service is for me a way of life and a way to forget about my own petty problems.Service to both man and God is the way to a lasting peace of mind and is something we all should learn to engage ourselves in at this time for the world is in need of advanced souls who can point out the way for us all to go. Religion is a man made effort but true spirituality is a living relationship with the true creator and this is what we have to aim for.

Close your mind to all other thought than your own thoughts and to all other ideas other than those things that you agree with.
That is, in my hopefully kind opinion, why so many people get so little out of religion...many religious people think that faith means, in part, having a closed mind to all but one opinion.
We could all benefit from this statement:
"We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul--We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things."

By buying a King James Bible and becoming a Christian and renouncing the false religion of Catholicism.[actually it was a NKJV until I studied the history of all the versions and got a pure Bible].

I grew up free from belief on supernatural beings.
Well, except for Santa when I was real small, but that can be excused on account of piles of solid evidence under the tree at Christmas.

Prayer...
It took a lot of prayer, to break free of religion and legalism. It took prayer partners, and having a willing heart, to listen to God. I asked for wisdom, and the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
I remember that a friend of mine, literally put her fingers on my ears, and prayed all that wrong teaching, and religion, come out of my ears..

Simple, I learned to think for myself, then naturally I started questioning everything that I was "told" to believe.
