I guess the thing with religions is that they comfort people, for they give an easy truth and make sure that people DON'T ASK QUESTIONS. It is much easier not having to seek answers and confront different things. When there is one book that says it all, then why not just stick with it. Unfortunately they don't realize that life is much more than that. They are missing a lot!! I believe there is no such thing as The Absolute Truth, we will never know whose truth is true !!

Religion always seem to cause a lot of troubles... I can not forget the catholic priest who more or less for himself said - when I told him I did not want to take part of any communion (it was during a wedding) - "ah these ?? who want to stay free" much later I understood partly what he ment... What is really "freedom" in these circumstances? yes, a piece of the truth.

What is really “freedom” in these circumstances?

If its not the truth then it is a lie. I don't believe religion is separate from spirituality. The spirit is in the religion, in its words and meaning and in the outcome of your actions if you follow it. Kathleen xx How can there be a “piece of truth”. If its not the truth then it is a lie.
