Do You Know That You Know What You Know?  Are You Secure Enough In What You Know That You Know You Are Safe In Contemplating What You Know Maybe Wrong or Inaccurate? 

(Read as many times as you need to slowly. It does make sense even if it seems like it does not at first. I had to read it a couple of times myself -and I wrote it.)
What if what you know is pretty solid; yet, the powers that be over you -your parents, guardians, teachers, local civic authorities, local spiritual authorities all  the way up to the UN and EU, even the Vatican and beyond (what have you) have some pretty loopy beliefs and treat you and everyone within their circle of influence according to those very loopy beliefs?

There are currently approximately 10,200 religions world wide that fall into ten categorically mainstream world religions according to the Annual Table of World Religions by David B. Barrett and Todd M. Johnson (1.)
 The world population site (one of my favorite sites on the internet) says that the world population is currently (drum roll...) 7,520,832,100+ and counting! Just today the population growth increased by 46, 472,100+ at the moment of writing this statement. So exciting to see a calculator calculating all the lives coming into the world. (2.) Some are saying "farewell" and have passed on to other realms, adventures, misadventure, or eternal rest or not, which ever the case may be. They will be missed by their loved ones and circles of influence here on Earth for certain. Yet, the new lives saying "hello" to the rest of the population of Earth are indeed to be certain to encounter adventure and misadventure, rest and not so much during their time here/now on Earth. And no doubt many lives as do now will have much to say. 

So I submit to you this day, July 25, 2017, as I have been for the past 30+ years, that as for the many people who are on the planet, that is how many religions there actually are. And each religion is uniquely every person's very own, tailored specific to their very self,  subscribing to that said specific religion as specified by that person's very self. 
Well, now I left us with some food for thought and am back now to chew the cud sort to speak. As to my points above do I have stats, polls or studies to sight? No. I do not. Experience working as a missionary/Bible teacher/church "planter among various "Christian" denominations, working with numerous religions or attempting to understand various religions, as well as common sense, and deduction of human behavior along with my time on Earth has given me this point of view. See, what I share with you among these pages, is primarily my point of view -my current way of thinking -my religion/belief/or belief system you could say. In addition to sharing my point of view, I am sharing / revealing topics that I have studied or do study to help me with my own health (mind, body and soul) as well as the work in helping to protect children's rights and humanitarian rights. However, what I really hope to share with you is how to entertain other thoughts without pushing out your own or without compromising (or feeling like you are compromising) even corrupting (or feeling like you are corrupting) your own mind, soul and spirit. Based upon my upbringing, what I have had to endure physically, what I have endured at the soul/spirit/connected to ALL, level the importance  of one's own thoughts and actions and owning one's own thoughts and actions in a matter of responsibility, concept or step to desired consequence means as much to me in importance as my own children and descendants do -as important as the air we breathe and is in my view the foundation of a solid life -Yes, even before a relationship with a higher being or belief in science or scripture. The owning of one's own mind (and all there in) and one's own actions is paramount above ALL else for this very reason... 
"For as he (a man) thinks in his heart so is he..." Proverbs 23:7
So if you think you are a victim -you are a victim. If you think you are a slave -you are a slave. If you think you are a good for nothing -you are a good for nothing. If you think you are a loser -you are a loser. WHAT YOU THINK DETERMINES WHO/WHAT YOU ARE!!!  

Are you solid in your thoughts, the ones that guide, mark, steer, control your actions that you, YOU, YOU are solid in your self (YOUR CORE BEING -Where you and SOURCE/LOVE/CREATOR/ALL commune) to own the responsibility of your thoughts and your actions? Are you solid in yourself to modify your thoughts and actions when the information once verified proves that your thoughts and perhaps your actions are now perhaps archaic, obsolete, no longer rendering service to yourself or humanity, OR perhaps your thoughts and actions were based upon faulty info, maybe outright lies? Are you solid enough to hold yourself accountable to the information; then, to adjust your thinking, life decisions and actions accordingly? Are you willing to admit areas where you are bound up and neither you or the Holy Spirit have any basic freedom? Are you ready, willing, able and brave enough to live Freedom - that is staying in a state of communion (3.) between yourself and Holy Spirit?

The study of the mind  and brain is the last frontier in science.  ~  Michael Tarr
 Today in our world, the "conundrum" of consciousness, of BEING, of what it is to be human, of what it is to be a human Being, of what it is to be a human being human is the pressing matter to intellectually creative and scientific minds who happen to have seemingly unlimited access to immense funding and backing of DARPA. (4.) and other military funded operations around the world regardless of government connections.
