Nice! I have friends from the whole spectrum of religious, atheistic, spiritual movements. I can have it if we disagree; I'm not sure about them though.

Although I currently aren't, I've been a members of 2 religions; one involuntarily because it's official state religion, and the other almost voluntarily because of my appetite to understand spirits, God etc. I have also extensively researched various other religions and spiritual paths and I still do. In my opinion some have started with good intentions. But due to the influence they can have on people they can be a good method of control. So black hats might want to control them.

Bottom down, I think it depends on oneself to know truth; and one's truth is the most legit than anybody else's for himself alone; and that can be shared and be made mutual with others or not. It is potential.

Quantum physics has tampered with what I mentioned too to a degree.

Also I've found some amazing (though cryptic) stuff in some (I'm picky) ancient philosophy. Socrates was such a clever guy.

Wish you well!
