You are your self, what rules you is state (you decide), and church is your generosity.
The aspect of church is reaching out in life. It's living freely. You don't just decide how your life is going to be, the aspect of church is how you live it out.
I am not referring to any religion, or any philosophy other than my own.
The aspect of church in my life is the people around me.
They are my life.
My church is maintaining this organism called earth, not by tradition or belief, but by what I know to be true and that which is good;
everything but death
I will fulfill the aspect of self when I fulfill the aspect of church.
I've turned away from the bureaucracies of state, by they are still important.
I hope you all know what to make of this life.
And that hope is part of my church also.
My church is the Philosopher King.

Brilliant line :)
That was a very humane post. Like you I carry no religion upon my shoulders, but believe in the human next to me for good or for bad. Many thanks.
Greetings from London.
I wrote down four definitions (my own) which is from my spiritual world view.
1). Religion: Expressing my beliefs in an active way, such as...helping others, giving to those who are in need, or caring for the sick.
2). Church: The group of people who I choose to congregate with and interact with in order to strenghten, express and encourage our common faith.
3). Faith: My individual belief system. My faith is ...I trust that God loves me because "God is Love"...he expressed that love in a very specific way...by sending his son to die on a cross as a propitiation for my sins.
4). God: Some may use the term "A Higher Power". My definition would be..."The One Who Loves Me And Wants My Best."

sweet i like this.
this is what church and religion is to me. its how you do it. and how you do it is who you are. and who you are is everything around you to you yourself
