Work: Understanding Spiritual Symbols

Here are a few things that will help you start to reveal to your spiritual circle that all religions are simply different systems of spiritual symbolism that represent the very same spiritual truths. You are an important part the religious revolution!


1) FUNDAMENTAL PERSPECTIVE

We respect, honor, and celebrate the immense wisdom, culture, and diversity that is the very heartbeat of all of the world's great religions. We don't want to destroy religion, itself, and lose this precious legacy; we want to end spiritual illiteracy!


2) FUNDAMENTAL SPIRITUAL LITERACY

We're not going to spoil all of the fun for you by telling you how to interpret all of the spiritual symbols found within your religion; but, we do recognize the importance of presenting common interpretations of the most fundamental spiritual symbols.

    "God": The physical, psychological, and spiritual personification of the one infinite and eternal universe.

    "Prayer": Personal communication with "God". YES, PRAYER WORKS!

    "Good"*: That which contributes to a state of wholistic health and happiness.

    "Evil"*: That which contributes to a state of wholistic disease and unhappiness.

    "The Devil": The physical, psychological, and spiritual personification of "Evil".

    *When making judgements about what is "good" and what is "evil", we strongly suggest that you think deeply about the difference between actions and entities (aka the "sin" and the "sinner").

Since so many people have been asking for recommendations for books that nurture spiritual literacy, we have decided to share a few of our favorites with you.


3) THE CENTER FOR NON-LITERAL THEISM

When Theism is properly understood, in terms of its spiritual symbolism, it is referred to as Non-literal Theism (Non-literal Christianity, Non-literal Islam, Non-literal Judaism, etc.) according to the new common God-based philosophical classification system. For more information, please visit The Center for Non-Literal Theism.

We support this new classification for three primary reasons:

    1) It implies spiritual literacy.
    2) It implies rejection of the "false-God" of traditional Theism.
    3) It draws attention to the existence of an unrecognized point of view.
