I personally believe that religion is a personal decision between you and your creator, whoever that may be. Its different for each and everyone because our paths have taken us many different roads. No too people are the same so why would two people's religious choice and personal deity be the same. Oh you say you may worship the same as others, but your own heart belongs to the one Great Spirit that you feel you will meet in the end. In the begining of your afterlife/otherlife, you alone will be the one to stand before the Spirit to answer whatever questions they may have for you. If you believe in reincarnation, somewhere along the way you will meet the Great Spirit. If you believe in afterlife, you too will meet your maker. So I ask, not as a discussion but out of curiosity, what does religion mean to you?
