Reply #91: I think my ideal religion would have a few broad points

[mvd]

- Faith in God as a force; force is neither male nor female

- An afterlife where we get together again with friends/family/pets, and live eternally in harmony

- Catholic morals when it comes to crime, the poor, and war - different doctrine on social issues. Sinners may be reborn to learn lessons

- Atheists will go to heaven too; our religion must be tolerant

- Use Jesus's teachings when they contradict the Bible; the Bible is just a guide

- Church is not mandatory; allow people to form their own relationships with God

Generally, allow for more differences in opinion than many current religions have - after the basic principles. You can tell I'm more of a spiritual person.
