I was going to post this under mythology, but here goes: HEAVY THOUGHT ALERT!!! I was listening to a philosophical discussion (no screaming please Min! LOL) and an interesting questions was posed: "If there were no religious rules whatsoever, can an individual craft a god or belief to believe in on the individual level, keeping it truly personal, without imposing it?" Yes a bit Utopian, but just a question I am truly interested in the responses to.

You already know my opinion.

The answer is Yes.

People LOVE to exclude others whenever possible so if you follow that line of logic you will find that there won't be much, if any, evangelizing.

I know some people who have a belief system that is totally exclusive.

They wouldn't dream of sharing their beliefs because they would run the risk that somebody else would embrace it and then it wouldn't be exclusively theirs.

Well:

Amy Farrah Fowler: I don't object to the concept of a deity, but I'm baffled by the notion of one that takes attendance.

I think so. That is what I try to do.

I certainly keep it to myself.
