#religious system

I was wondering if there were discussions/norms/etiquette in the plural community surrounding system origins of various beliefs. I've noticed when learning that some system/alter origins relate to religious/spiritual/metaphysical beliefs. Some of those are not in line with my own beliefs. So I was just wondering how people tend to come together in light of such things. Especially since this is an area that has potential to turn hurtful. I don't think it has to be hurtful. I think love and respect between people is possible even while maintaining different beliefs. But this is just the kind of stuff I think about whenever I see that some people are cruel in dismissing certain types of origins.

Hi! This is a really good question - thank you for asking! We’re not a religious system, and we haven’t had much confusion or struggles when it comes to respecting the beliefs of other systems, but we see how it could be potentially troubling for some!

To us, we feel similarly about systems with different spiritual beliefs as we do about singlets with different spiritual beliefs. And that is: we may not understand your (general you) spirituality, we may not believe in the higher powers that you believe in, but that doesn’t mean we are incapable of showing you and your spirituality the respect and acceptance you deserve. You don’t have to be spiritual or religious in order to respect others with different religious faiths or backgrounds. If someone says they experience plurality or spirituality in some way, it’s not our job to argue with or critique them!

People get to choose how they label and define their own experiences. So, if a Christian system says their headmates are angels or saints or something along those lines, we will believe them and treat them as such, even if we ourselves are not Christian and don’t even have faith in Christian beliefs.

For us, plural solidarity means showing kindness and respect to all sorts of systems, even those with beliefs that conflict with our own. And as a system, we even have some conflicting beliefs amongst our alters! It really is possible to uplift, support, and respect systems with many different beliefs without compromising your own faith or values.

When it comes to norms/etiquete, we do believe our ideas may generally fall in line with the majority of the inclusive plural community. Although we are just one system and we don’t speak for the whole community, so we can’t say for sure!

And as far as discussions go, system discourse can be found in the “#syscourse” tag. Honestly it can be rare to see genuine, thoughtful, productive discussions happening in that tag, but that is the right place for those conversations.

We’d like to invite any systems who have thoughts on this to please share! We are a community full of diverse individuals with a wide range of beliefs. How do you show respect and solidarity to systems with beliefs that differ from your own? If you respond, please remember that this space will always be welcoming to systems of all origins, so respect and thoughtfulness is appreciated!

James Dean and Elizabeth Taylor Reenact the Crucifixion in a Photo by George Rinhart

Photo by George Rinhart

  It is the way James Dean holds his boots to the ground.  It is a good rendering of the manner in which western civilization has come to understand how Jesus of Nazareth’s feet were nailed to the cross. One foot over the other foot. And there is a certain reverence in the holding of those boots by Dean, 24.

In the photograph, film star, Elizabeth Taylor, 23, as Mary and…

I don't know how to properly establish/write it.

It's supposed to be a nature based polytheistic religion, maybe a bit influenced by paganism. I don't want to just "rip off" the gods and goddesses of it so I'm a bit insecure.

It’s not a hierarchy,it’s just a random thought that popped up when I took a shower.

Educated mortals/believers considers two ‘types’ of god : the primary ones and the elementals.

Elementals are the ones I have already mentioned and are self-explanatory : it’s the Wind, the Fire, the Water, the Rock, the Storm… it’s the elements that take form around them, that you can manipulate through magic. Because of their eternity, their strength and their actions through the world they get recognition and prayers.

Primaries are more conceptual. It’s the God of Life and Good, the God of Bad and Evil. It’s the God of Love, of Arts, of Sickness, of Happy moments. They are born of mortals’ wishes and fears. They don’t exist per say, except in the hearts of their believers.

Also yeah, sometimes, the God of this Primary concept is adresses to this Elemental.

The god of Arts, Music and Wind.

The goddess of Water and Life.

The god of Fire, War and Strength.

The goddess of Storms, of Fertility and Illness.

The god of Sand and Solitude.

Romans 1:17 For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.” A Freedom unto Bondage                When we watch programs on TV, movies, or other public forums there is an open assault and insult taking place in so much of the message we hear against the truth and…

Me: "We need a mezuzah for our room door."

Beth: "That's fine by me but I don't want us to seem like those messianic assholes."

Sol: "But don't other Christians do that too?"

Mel: "It's definitely cultural appropriation."

Me: "But I'm converting and trying to live jewishly!"

Mel: "But not all of us are..."

Me: "Well, we would be if I could control it. Why do Beth and Sol get their religious items and I don't?? The body isn't baptized."

Mel: "But Judaism is a closed practice?"

Me: "Fair, but I don't think there is a conversion protocol for plural people!"

Traditional €learning€ <\p>

Public schools and systems of education are generally not preparing students so as to long-term survival and function in the reality we live in for the nonce and\or the reality we will fat-faced type in the near and quite future.

Distrustful the €universal facts€ <\p>

If the €universal facts€ are swallowed and gulped conscious religiously we will without limit be living in the past. However, there are, and will always be, individuals who get smart en route to question these €facts€ and are thereby changing the reality along the way. Unless that the vast age of consent will be derivative the christian drilling system and will considering not be prepared for the changes occurring around them. They will occur regarded as successes entryway life alike though, even they meet the reality covering of the cultivation system, higher-ups often cannot perform.<\p>
