Stripping Away the Fog Clouding Your Religious Beliefs  
 

  By Gregory B  Articles For Christians


Normally, it doesn't really matter what religion you belong to, it doesn't really matter what spiritual practices you believe that or choose not to believe in. What really seems to matter, is how your religious beliefs can create a fog like cloud around your thinking.

I see this often, whenever I watch videos on the Internet, read articles, watch TV or even while I'm walking through a crowd of people. I will see other people who are wearing shirts, hats or even religious symbols like crosses, to show others what they truly believe in. Sometimes these symbols can be obnoxious, while other times they're gentle reminders that you could be walking behind or in front of someone who hasn't yet been stripped away of their clouded religious beliefs.

They're your beliefs, and it doesn't matter what you believe in, have been formed as a direct result of the environment that you were either raised in for the environment that you now surround yourself with. If you're a Christian who believes that other religions are wrong, and you hang around other Christians who share the same opinion, there's a good chance that you and them will have created a fact out of a simple belief.

When are we going to realize, that we don't need to fight wars over religion, we don't need to force our religious beliefs onto others and we certainly don't need to brutalize or kill anyone, simply because they believed in something different than we do.

I have been stripping away my religious fog, that was installed in my mind as a young child for quite some time now. I am starting to see the problems, that other religions seem to impose on their opposition and I'm tired of it.

If your religion teaches love and compassion, they should also include other religions. The next time that you view another religion or someone else who believes in something different than you, don't view them as the enemy, think of them as a friend.

If your religion teaches love and this is the core of your religious beliefs, then start practicing what you so desperately choose to believe in.
