Religion is a system of beliefs that forms an egregore through the accumulation of believers’ attention. The more people believe (give attention) in a “single God” or “Cthulhu” or mountain, and the more people there are like them, the stronger and bigger the egregore becomes. The strength of the egregor directly depends on the attention of people, or the amount of energy that each soul transmits to it, and not its “age” or truthfulness.

Religion can’t be inherently good or bad. God or Deity isn’t responsible for how followers of a particular faith interpret the paradigms of its founders.

Any egregore can work as “dark” and as “light”, primitively speaking.

“Dark” egregores are the easiest to connect to. They have denser “bodies”, are easy to understand, and popular. They can give you short-term relief, but for that, they will literally eat your soul.
Dark egregores are not created by “hell and demons”. They’re not bad, yet part of the “self-cleaning system”. If you don’t want to evolve and create – be fertilizer for those who will.

“Light” egregores don’t need attributes, churches, worship, gifts, or sacrifices. Their development occurs through the evolution of the soul and consciousness. It is more difficult to connect to them, and for people with a weak will, it is impossible altogether. They are not “fashionable”, and they don’t “sell indulgences”.

Light egregors will help your soul grow, and won’t “sugar-coat” your mind. They’ll run you through all the rings of hell in order to make you closer to the next level.

According to your faith, so be it unto you.

This is not a threat, but a statement of fact. If you believe that the pastor is the holy truth, that the words from the book are immutable, and that sinners are roasted on spits in mystical caves – that is your choice, and that will be your reality.

It is also illogical to slander any confession simply because a handful of its followers have behaved worse than animals for centuries. Again, it’s not a problem of religion, but the result of the CHOICES and ACTIONS of the people themselves.

Religion is what a person chooses to believe in. Imagine it as the mechanism of a sewing machine. It can be used to create a unique dress, to sew hundreds of thousands of identical towels, or to hit someone with it.

Religion is one of millions of tools for the harmonious development of the Creator’s Universe, no more and no less.
