All you are doimg is taking the Greek point of Gods with many conflicts and plugging it in ti monodeistic thinking.

The Greek makes more sense.

As I said, you don't need a religion to have that peace.

Well if I'm reading you right you still need a belief in God, correct?

Nope, God created our spirit in his image. Trying to put God in man's words is a mistake. We are the masters of our own physical world, God made it that way and stepped out, his is the spiritual existence. Whatever happens here, life, pain, death, love, hate, evil, good, we do to ourselves.

Religion is man made, heaven and hell are man made, words of time and place that will have nothing to do with our spirit after life. If you place your faith in man's words and tenets your path may be much harder.

I'm sure I can't explain it right but it will probably be many paths and levels of spiritual well being. From a path of hopelessness(hell) to the rapture of enlightenment. There will be all eternity to travel whatever path and advance at whatever level we desire.

Can't say what works for you but you don't need a religion, that is a silly man based trap. I believe in God but I also believe we are nothing but worm dirt once the breath leaves our bodies.

Thinking a week of depression in 95 years of living is a pretty good run.

There is the good side of mankind as well. We just get inundated with the bad stuff everyday and lose sight of the fact that there are still many good people on this earth.

But we must stop eating it.

The thing is, you can't count on the good stuff. But you can bet your ass on the other.

I believe the body is, but I believe we have a soul that is eternal.

Wow. I dint think I was that smart.

Nah, I'm just saying stupid myopic people made a stupid myopic God.

The Buddhists made a much more rational God. Even cooler- their God says he's not actually a God! I'm not sayin.... I'm just sayin...

If it is a place that dreams do come true I'm assuming there are 20 year old twin Ukrainian chicks behind every harp.

Well I can't deny that all we were and would have been on this earth will be ashes, I'm going to be cremated. If there is no spiritual continuation... well I won't realize it, so nothing lost that I didn't have anyway.

I do hope to continue relations with those I care for after ... it'd be cool to flip each other off again for fun.
