When I visited a national event shortly before the Pandemic, I was enlightened by how many different beliefs people held, the disparate nature of those and the crossovers.






-awareness and much more.
No one person seemed to hold exactly the same views as another.
The lack of a centrally-organised religion meant people made their own minds up and weren't told what to think.
The general opinion seemed to me to do no harm to the planet and to others. Theoretically the latter is a tenet of the major Abrahamic religions, though many followers of them could do with remembering that.
Opposite the queue to get in was a man ranting about how we were all going to hell .. as though we all believed in a hell. He was intent on doing us harm .. upsetting us; yet the attendees did nothing to warrant this. He didn't understand us and, try as a few did, wasn't interested in discussing this or finding out.
I myself am an atheist, but care about the planet. I also love tarot and other means of supposed divination, though more as a way of telling a story or entertaining or helping others, rather than any power.
I am open to all things .. with evidence.
