If your god is so real and so powerful, shouldn’t ALL religions in the world be the same?

Question by Guy: Why don’t we destroy all current religions and create a new One World Religion with the help of the spirits?
Why don’t we destroy all current religions on Earth and wait for the God(s) and spirits that really exist to come and help us to create a One World Religion that would start again fresh?
That would stop religious wars and conflict between religion and science

Question by Daniel-Joseph: (Christian) Is this game sinful?
Hey, I’m helping with a christian game but I feel that if I make it i’m turning life into entertainment, am i? the game might include spirtual warfare but even if I don’t add that, I feel I’m still possibly sinning.
At the moment I want it to be an online 3d-chat, as I said it might have spirtual warfare (but is that right to turn into a game either?) I don’t think were having money since atleast some of us don’t want people just running round for cash.
It’s not that I think the game contents might be wrong to have (although I’m weary of having spirtual warfare, because it’s somthing serious, and not possibly somthing I should make into a game) I just feel I’m turning life into entertainment.
Best answer:
Answer by Bride of Jaysus Does it entail playing hide and seek with a priest?
The human mind does not want to experience God, but to catch it by becoming a specialist in religion and spirituality. All believers of religion and spirituality are because God is one. However, the perception of God’s name, logo and technology differ according to the religion of faith and understanding of God.
All religious and spiritual people claim it is the perception of God. But true God can not be seen, it is out of our language. According to the transformation state of mind, it is an expression of our emotions. The most common meaning of spirituality is the state, quality, manner, or spiritual being. Spiritual means relating to God or having the nature of spirits. The most common sense of religion is a set of beliefs, values and practices based on the teachings of a spiritual leader. Having or showing belief in and reverence for God.
“Christian” sees and believes in Jesus Christ (God) and asks the most spiritual. “Hindus” sees and believes in RAM (as God) and spiritual needs. “Muslim” perceives and believes in Allah (God) and believes that they are spiritual All our observing and showing the reflection of the inner self, by invoking the conscience — a subtle house of nature for all
None of the follower of the religion and spirituality has seen the Spirit, God, and agrees to God is one. Religious people can be the Christen religion, Muslim or Hindu. They claim that the perception of God for their religion is true and best book and according to their religion. Proponents of spirituality, without exception, see religion books of all religions are love letters to God from their lords, who have experienced the spirituality of unconditional love.
All religions are tools that help withdraw from attachments, enmity and fear of many things. All religions are tools a tool to purify the mind by redemption of thoughts of selfishness through prayer. Religious leaders and places of worship and religious books are tools of the focus of consciousness to free himself from his thoughts of many accessories, hostility and fear of many things in the world. This gives relaxation to mind based on devotion and trust invoked in the consciousness.
Spirituality is diving deep into the field within itself without being tied to a spiritual leader or a book of religion. Proponents of spirituality, without exception, are free of any ceremony of the church, mosque or temple. Followers of spirituality depend on meditation and there are many ways of meditation.
Lords of all religions who have lived spirituality – Christen, Moslems and Hindus, etc. are not religious but spiritual. Their authors and supporters of their preaching and religious believers were of specific religion with rituals specifically.
A researcher from any religion can be spiritual without being religious. But to be truly spiritual is to express unconditional love to all, regardless of religion. Religion is to focus on specific beliefs such as Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, etc. Spirituality is usually focused on itself, the subtle nature or God, which is one for all. Religion is thought to God our knowledge learned from our parents, spiritual leaders and civilization. Spirituality comes from within you is your sense of the unity of God by invoking the conscience of oneself. Religion is the object of your senses and can be discussed with the wisdom of thought. Spirituality is the subject beyond your senses and wisdom of the thought and individual relationships with your inner self and God. You learn the religion but spirituality is an object of meditation in serenity.
Religion is a guide to follow the race to reach God. Spirituality is an experience of God by invoking self-awareness beyond your inner wisdom of thought and language. .
. Many believe that God is by faith and continue the search terms with many rituals and sacred texts of the faith of past centuries and before any conclusion. The ceremony and faith of the scriptures of the religion and spirituality continue to change perceptions, but selfishness is the same.
Some people perceive to consider that there is a God or supernatural being who did not look natural and is a supernatural power is somewhere in the inner chamber of the heart, and it is beyond the reach of their service. They get rid of religious ceremony of faith are able to identify with his inner self. They differ from religious people, but still not to give up his selfishness. They still feel it through selfishness and see God in his humanity. They continue to fear God and do well with morale.
Few are prepared to establish relations with his inner self and the realization of his selfishness. They become familiar path with the true God is one for all, believers and non believers of God. They become aware of the perception of God and spiritual reality.
Some blessed learn to enter the deeper layers of consciousness beyond the selfishness and his wisdom and memory of thought. They have a sense of unity of God is unique to all beings and is omnipresent, omnipotent, and no attachment to the person and is highly moral, eternal consciousness and donors. He is the creator and loving care to all. For him, religion and spirituality are the creation of human thought – everybody love is unconditional right path

Long hair Image by Ed Yourdon
This was taken on the west side of Broadway on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, between 81st and 80th Street — pretty much in front of Zabar’s. I had been walking along behind this woman for a block or two, wondering if she would turn around so I could take a picture of her face. But then it dawned on me — duh! — that no matter how beautiful she might be, her face couldn’t possibly be as interesting as her braided hair, which reached almost to her ankles…
Note: on Aug 7, 2009 I uploaded a slightly edited version of this photo; I used Apple’s "Aperture" program to eliminate hot spots and cold spots, and also decreased the shadows on the woman’s back and jeans, to better highlight her long braided hair. Most people probably won’t notice the difference — but since this is (as of Aug 2009) the third most-often viewed image in my Flickr collection, I felt I should make it as good as possible…
This is part of an evolving photo-project, which will probably continue throughout the summer of 2008, and perhaps beyond: a random collection of "interesting" people in a broad stretch of the Upper West Side of Manhattan — between 72nd Street and 104th Street, especially along Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue.
I don’t like to intrude on people’s privacy, so I normally use a telephoto lens in order to photograph them while they’re still 50-100 feet away from me; but that means I have to continue focusing my attention on the people and activities half a block away, rather than on what’s right in front of me.
I’ve also learned that, in many cases, the opportunities for an interesting picture are very fleeting — literally a matter of a couple of seconds, before the person(s) in question move on, turn away, or stop doing whatever was interesting. So I’ve learned to keep the camera switched on (which contradicts my traditional urge to conserve battery power), and not worry so much about zooming in for a perfectly-framed picture … after all, once the digital image is uploaded to my computer, it’s pretty trivial to crop out the parts unrelated to the main subject.
For the most part, I’ve deliberately avoided photographing bums, drunks, drunks, and crazy people. There are a few of them around, and they would certainly create some dramatic pictures; but they generally don’t want to be photographed, and I don’t want to feel like I’m taking advantage of them. I’m still looking for opportunities to take some "sympathetic" pictures of such people, which might inspire others to reach out and help them. We’ll see how it goes …
The only other thing I’ve noticed, thus far, is that while there are lots of interesting people to photograph, there are far, far, far more people who are not so interesting. They’re probably fine people, and they might even be more interesting than the ones I’ve photographed … but there was just nothing memorable about them.
