Maybe if most Earth religions weren’t so boring and manipulative—something not loaded with bull—we might have a home base where all humans could finally come together. Talk about a big tent!
The mechanical universe in which we live is so overloaded with unknown data, just a peek behind the curtain could blow these dog-and-pony show religions out of the water.
The surreality of consciousness always begs for answers. I think we are closing in on discoveries in the near future, and I hope to live long enough to see a big reveal or two. Until then, I’m not quite ready to buy the “we’re in the Matrix” theory just yet, but wouldn’t that be amazing if something similar were happening?

Trouble has been that when a more fun religion came along the Roman Catholic church extirpated it.
These day it tends to be Islamic or evangelical extremists who do the purging but the principle seems to be the same
If it is fun, it is evil and needs to die by fire
We don't need a home base. Everybody doesn't have to come together. Earth religions? As of there were anything else available. There are no answers to beg for. Humans are the only animal that evolved to the point where they contemplated their own bexistence. Religion was created to help explain this. There is no explanation. We're just like any other organism. When you die, you cease to exist. Homo Sapiens are the only species that can't accept this.
I disagree
