    it's just a feeling, while i feel that i'm a mostly good person, and i have matured...some of my words are clearly not my own.....my pastor asks me to speak on the spot to the congregation on a topic that i typically get maybe 2 or 3 minutes before i speak....i ain't that clever, lol

    Interesting.... how do you know that they are not your own. Do you feel like your body is taken over and the spirit is speaking through you.

    it's a different feeling.....

    you said it yourself when you sing at times you feel like you're almost being taken over.....

    when i'm speaking, sometimes i gotta hear it back to even catch what i'm saying... i constantly get distracted by all the eyes on me, i'm looking at my mom, my wife, other members at the church, i be thinking i know what i'm saying...then i watch it back and i'm like

    "oh ? i said that too?....i don't remember saying that"

    ? 's weird as ? yo

    Before we delve into something else I would say studying Hebrew and multiple religions and spiritual systems and scientific research there is energy source where we all originate. Humans are made up the same composition that makes up a star and our planet was part of a star at one point. Now, there is researching showing melanin can neutralize radiation and stop electro magnetic waves. So there is more to us than that meets the eye. A lot of mythological stories were just that stories to explain concepts and complex ideaologies that priest, griots and religious men tell us. I don't think there are an actual hell and heaven but its within the persons mind, acts, and motivation that the person allows or others do unto them. I study almost daily to fins truth and reasoning. Religions are just the deification of a culture and adopting another persons religion is adopting their culture whichis behavior and their view of the world, universe and beyond. We can see similarities other cultures and ttheir role in creation of other religions and those peoples twist to their beliefs and studies for example black churches and white churches proceed differently. Black's churches have a voodoo feel to it while white churches appear to have a ancient info european religious feel to it.

    Is that because of your African American cultural tradition?

    James Baldwin spoke on something similar.

    Nella Larsen wrote about the gravitational pull back to the church, but it was because a sense of culture versus actual religious change because all she saw was contradictions and sinners dancing under halos.

    @ohmars what is your perspective as a Muslim. How did you know that islam was the right religion for you, even when you live in a Christian society?

    To each their own as long as it builds a better you. Some need other good folk to be around some have to walk a lonely road and some in between but the purpose is to be a better neighbor and a protector.

    I don't think we are 100% on the same page here, but I agree with this in a sense.

    I am a believer of the Scriptures and an Israelite. Many of these mainstream churches seem like stumbling blocks for those seeking The Most High. We are spiritual beings. So its only natural to want to connect back with the creator at some.point in life.

    but these churches are only stifling true spiritual growth. That's why I don't agree with "religion" per say.

    DONT FULLY AGREE WITH THE BOLDED... AS BELIEVER OF ANY FAITH, YOU SHOULD WANT TO GATHER WITH THOSE OF YOUR LIKENESS AND LEARN, PRAISE AND WORSHIP...

    NOW, DO PREACHERS, PREIST, ETC HAVE THEIR OWN AGENDAS? OF COURSE THEY DO, THEY ARE HUMAN LIKE ANYONE ELSE.. BUT THE BIBLE TEACHES US TO PRAY FOR UNDERSTANDING AND HAVE DESERNMENT...

    @texas409 like how did you know it was ? ? How are you sure that he specifically spoke to you.

    There is this thing called the Holy Spirit that ? gave man when Christ died. It sure wasn't me speaking that night when I woke up out my sleep saying everything that was taken from you you will get back and the way doors opened up for me in my life after that night was only ?
