In short, this religion is the only one answering all the questions what humans asked themselves last 10 thousands years.
What is the goal of our existence?
What is the aim of myself?
How I can serve not only my ego and feel proud?
How to get avoid all the destructive or magical-oriented stuff like conservative religion, which actually is only the real social-manipulation tool or fraud?
What else doubts you have? Click/Choose your position:
Yes. You have to. You a part of the society, you are the product of the current civilisation. But you NOT must, for sure. You can stay just a consumer if you wish.
How does it excuse you from having the aim for your existence? If you do not care where you are from, maybe you are still interested in which direction it is going.
You can pretend to be aside, but enough to continue to develop yourself to be involved in human evolution.
Have you read about futureligion? Looks like you really didnt get the whole idea yet. It has nothing against your delusions. Sure you wish all good to your kids and your neighbours. Just continue to include and count their interests in your action.
