@Sheril We don’t even need religion to share and trust in life… 🍀🌹
@Sheril Agreed! Miracles are real with no human intervention. Religion is man made.

@Sheril we probly need something LIKE religion to help us remember to pay attention to that miracle. i think most of us don't take so much opportunity to sit back from the slog of life to pay attention to such miracles.

i would call science (a very organized social process) a tradition similar to religion in this respect.

religion does not need a god nor supernatural. just practices in the attention on what life IS.
