We are all healing in here, all healing from different types of pains, but at the end of the day, we are one. We are one with the universe, we are one with each other and we are one gathered in the joys of healing. Some have more faith and thanks giving to a higher power, who ever that maybe to their specific religious ethos. So, in here we can share our beliefs, no matter which God or doctrine we follow.

I was born and raised Catholic. Not so much anymore. My problem with the church doesn't stem from philosophy or practice, it stems from abuse at the hands of priests. Today though, I'm realizing the charge is fading from those experiences. I've got closure with the church. Jesus and rites and rituals are OK. I also always liked the sense of community I found through going to Mass. I went to Catholic Grammar School and university so have been steeped in the traditions. I don't believe my "salvation" is tied to the church or church practices. I'm not sure about the Jesus stuff and being "saved". I do know that there is a power greater than myself that I rely on. I don't think God is a "one size fits all" proposition. I think the knowledge and concept of God is different for everyone. I believe that there are common truths which apply to everyone but what and how people believe is something personal. I also don't think there is only one way to enlightenment or being saved. I also don't ascribe to "my way or the highway" thinking. We're all on a journey toward something, call it what you want - enlightenment, nirvana, the truth, heaven, bliss. There are many roads leading to the same place, many solutions, we're all on a path and I just happen to call the destination God.
