traditional religions, this can also be a narrative with
a combination of several religion, pick and mix.
- Living religion rather than intellectual faith
- No one true religion, and remains agnostic
agnostic about whether god exists and what God
means. There is therefore an emphasis on
individual choice the personal spiritual search.
- The religious supermarket and the pick and mix approach
- There can be no right or wrong religion. They are all merely
reflections of their culture. Therefore, people can choose
whether of not they are religious, or which religion suits them.
There is no judgement as values and religious ideas are
acceptable. Being truly religious is not about following specific
dogmas.
- Personal spiritual search
- There is no one objective knowledge or absolute
representation of reality. Our concepts and the way we
see the world are influenced and formed by the
particular culture or society we live in. Religion is seen as
a CULTURAL CONCEPT. Religion reflects the way society
expects people o behave. Religion no longer has a claim
on absolute truth, they are relative truths.
- No right or wrong religion
