Religions are based on mythology anyway. Spiritual people are usually just superstitious. So the new category could be named Mythology, Superstition, and Folklore.

Actually I'm welcoming other suggestions. I didn't really like the new name myself, anyone got a better one?
2007-12-09 16:47:49 · update #2
Probably.
But have a heart for the poor people over there. Do you really want to inflict the likes of Fireball, Catholic Crusader, Lyin' of Judah, Francine, et al. onto those unsuspecting innocents?

maybe not. All religions have myths and folklore granted but not all myths and folklore have religions. Where would you discuss Pecos Bill or Paul Bunyon? Washington chopping down a cherry tree or throwing a silver dollar across the Potomac. Is Chuck Norris a myth, folklore or religion?

Hahaha, there is a huge difference there. Spirituality and by extension religion actually has health benefits. Mythology and folklore are just fun stories to repeat and offer insights into the past.

I agree, even however there's a delicate difference between a fantasy and a faith. In a fantasy, each and all of the persons who particularly have faith in it are lifeless. in a faith, they're nonetheless alive. This additionally made me keep in mind yet another analogy. Whats the style between a cult and a faith? In a cult, there is a few guy on the remarkable who knows its a sham. In a faith that guy or woman is lifeless.

What do you mean, should it be? It has been from the begining, it's all a part of the GREAT DECEPTION...it started with Catholacisim, and that gave us the Protestant Christianity that we practise here in America today. The Jews were already decieved by the Rabbis by the time the Messiah showed up on the scene, and any other religion is man made also. The Messiah's message was Not to believe in him ( as in believe in my name ) but to believe in his message, and his message was about the Reign of God is at hand....that's what we are to beleive in. The church today likes to preach a message ABOUT the Messiah, but Not about the Messiah's message!!!

In the warped mind of the blasphemer and non-believer anything is "IMAGINABLE", so technically, yes to answer your question.
Ridiculers will come up with anything to discredit God and his word, the Bible. It's so sick anymore, but that's how most are in the world; blasphemers first, nutcases first too.
Thanks.

No...here's why...The God concept or the conceptualization of a God is not myth...Given that the concept is actual you don't have myth...Now I am not specifically saying there is a God...There is a concept that would be too difficult to overcome. PEACE!
