We know now that religions were created by men to establish a beginning, middle and sometimes end. If you were to start a new religion for today, what would it look like? 1. Male, Female, both or other. (Define your other)? 2. What would you want or expect people to focus on? 3. How would you teach your children? 4. What would be the role of the elders? 5. Define your new culture?

Thank you Irma, I will. And you could have added more if you wish. I hope that answers being left can evolve into a newness of life and living. Why not!

1. both Male & Female
2. What would you want or expect people to focus on? Service to others, green environment, recycling
3. How would you teach your children? by serving as model of how to render service and how to take care of the community and environment
4. What would be the role of the elders? to provide support through their wisdom and know how
5. Define your new culture? a culture that sees the differences in everyone-- young, old, rich, poor, smart, average, and not so smart and make those differences work to better the world around them through encouraging community service and through providing environmental friendly products that will perserve the earth.
Misfits would be vanished from the society to their own pergatory though. This new culture is intolerant of misfits who only want to serve themselves like Wallstreet Banks, Greedy people, and people who just plain don't want to abide by the rules of the society/culture.

again, Dr. Nosakhere great Thought:
you say, "We know now that religions were created by men"-----
I, though, and I believe 5-6 Billion Others do also;
believe that religion, or way of life for Man, were CREATED by something Different than Man--something that Created Man.-----
Science tells me a theory that at one time all That IS, was in a miniscue ball and that it BANGEDED(sic).
Then all that Man observes and keeps Man--Consciouslly Alive--spread into Universes, Universe, Galaxies, Worlds, Continents, Mountains, Seas, and Valleys.............
The Man, not knowing his origin Or his demise/death; then tried to develop an understanding of His Observed Creation, his fears and his strengths----
Then that which Created Mans Reality, gave Man clues, signs, observations, and words to form Mans way of Life..............
Man Creates nothing---Man uses what has been created and MAKES things.....
But to use yourThought reference is ok ----
because I believe; you base your observations on paganChristianThought as MADE in Europe......

The only thing that man knows for sure, is only what man says. No more, no less.
There is no evidence to "prove" other wise, whether you call it pagan or not.
The philosophical fight or argument is only with ourselves, unless you have someone or something from above or blow to state the difference. Unfortunately, it ain't going to happen, because if it were so, it would have happened based on the condition of the world in the past and present.
What! No lightening bolts coming down for me being blasphemous!
Only mans ego and charlatans can make that claim.

again, Dr. Nosakhere--it is your blag
I question yourEgotistic claim of "We know now that religions were created by men"-----
weWho?----how many?
I and 5-6 Billion People with other egos might differ on yourCharlatanasstic claim.
Can you or "yourWe"; prove that man has Created anything?

Actually I can not see the males starting any thing that in any way did not center around him EXCLUSIVE.....No I believe it was the female, because she has a nurtuing nature and can be incorporating not exclusive therefore my religion would be modeled after Mother Nature... 1. which would enclude all human beings that had a lot of every day common sense and were able to treat others as they want to be treated...if not they get the boot,,,
Okpara, my favorite word to hate is "I AM SORRY!!!! an apology is o k but not I am sorry...that word has been so over used for every thing and even when it is not even needed...but I digress.lol...so the word I am sorry will be banned!!!!
2. I would expect each person to love and respect them selves unconditionally.
3. I would teach if it does not work then try something else...trial and error along with inventions come from need, want, and survival....and, experience is the best teacher...
4. The elders would always have the highest place of honor, for their life experiences and the vital historical facts and ups and downs and oh , just all of those memores into interesting storys of so, so many generations of the past and how it was so slow and quiet and exciting and all of those ghost stories and countless questions of how did you ever live without a telephone, no a cell phone. , a refrigrator, a tv, a car no electricity and you had to walk to school???? much shocking weird stories that keeps the youth attentative with a million and one questions.(smile)
My culture would be all that they have tried to teach out of us as proud decendants of our Mother land....Africa.(smile) Ever thing in MotherNature works perfect if and until mankind distroys it some day. But by then we will mostly have found antoher suitable planet to move to...Life will go on.(smile)
Our culture would be made up of a unified family as well as extended family members of my blood and not of my blood, but my close and dear friends and their friends and so on and so on...no restrictions on skin color financises, religious back ground run in s with the law as long as one is not at present running away from the legal systems that be,lol
I still have that everyone is a friend until they teach me they are not my friend...Okpara, I AM SURE i GAVE YOU MORE THAN WHAT YOU WERE LOOKING FOR.(AS i SIT HERE LAUGHING MY HEAD OFF AT THIS)
GOOD NIGHT, (SMILE)
Such a lovely post brother Okpara...so glad to have you back will you stay a little time this trip ? (smile)
