The Spirit Works with Believers

Our lives become stories, our stories ideas and ideas spirits of an era…

How do spirits interact with the material world?

If the vehicle of our spirit is the body, what is the vehicle of the spirit of God? Does he hold the keys to every vehicle? Does he let us drive with specific instructions perhaps?

Myths are the last fighters of stories turning into oblivion…

What we nowadays call myths of a culture (because of the amount of magic involved in the story) was the actual religion of the people back in those days. Most Abrahamic religions in this day and age require certain amount of  faith to follow suit with the accounts that are being read.
It seems that the process of religions transitioning to “myths” is dependent upon how effective we are at battling mysticism in our writings and passing on the information without making it sound sensational.
Sensationalism in stories captures attention but they are short-term gain long-term pain.
In these times, writings require deep analysis to understand what is said for the title is usually misleading. The catchy play of words and the double entendres that make words sound grandiose, also bleed out apparent true from it and twist the apparent meaning into something that falls in subjective interpretation.
Understanding ancient scriptures had never been more difficult, a tedious task that requires understanding of the spirit of the author.

The process from true to religion and then myth seems to be a cancer that affects all fantastic stories; as if the very same thing that makes the story sound spectacular is pushed too much in the narrative and gets turned into an agent of destruction. Transition from  myth to oblivion happens fast. Seen true events of our collective story, been forgotten because of narrative decoration is  just painful.

Since every major Abrahamic religion has magic tone element that relies on faith, then every single one is on the edge to become a myth; just like it happened with the beliefs of the Egyptians, the Greeks and the Romans.

The task here is to eliminate the magic and mysticism surrounding religion so that when reading about what took place, anybody can ground on reality what took place, without having to resource strictly to faith. After a deeper understanding some skeptics might reconsider the possibilities of those events been facts; regardless of the means used for these things to come about, please know that all knowledge comes from above and the spirit works with believers

Taking a step back from religion to story fortifies our beliefs…
