=Danni's learning Page= = = =IF THE DEVINE DWELT WITHIN US:= = = =If everyone believed that God lived within us we would all live in an immanent world and there would be no transcendent nature. We wouldn’t have beliefs of what’s around us or what else is out there. No one would go searching for bigger places. The ultimate religious questions would never be asked like, how did we get here or who put us here. I’ve learnt that through religion you need science and through science you need religion. I’ve come to realise that it’s the transcendent side of religion that asks the “ultimate religious questions” so without having a transcendent view of God what questions will be asked? We will all think spiritually inside of us no one would worry about the most important questions of life being answered. People may also believe that there’s someone inside of everyone that control’s us. If that was the case every murder, crime, terrorist attack can be blamed simply by saying “I didn’t do it, the man inside me told me to”, or “it was the man inside”. IF this was the case the whole world would be a disaster.=

//Danni what are the ultimate religious questions? Is man just a machine controlled by thought? How does conscience and transcendent coexist? Can God still be transcendent yet dwell inside? How does man find a God ?//

//**What are some of the ultimate religious questions?**// //Some of the ultimate religious questions may include:// //Why are we here, is there a purpose that we were put on this planet?// //Does God really exist?// //What else exists beyond this planet?// //If we ask these questions it gives us more ambition to seek more answers in life. If we didn't ask these questions we would never seek. Everyone would have the same or a similar perspective on life and we would have our doubts about God.//

The responses to the supernatural world start at the transcendent beliefs started by different cultures and religions. Every religion is going to be different with each having their own morals and beliefs but in the end they all have one thing in common, the belief of having a God and something to worship.
 * RESPONSES TO THE SUPERNATURAL WORLD- to be finished**

Theism, the belief that God does exist. The faiths of theism is to usually have an understanding of a personal and transcendent being from God rather then impersonal. Thesis's also believe that the word of God is to have a deeper connection in trusting in the reality of life. Polytheism and monotheism also fall under this category.

Polytheism means that you have a belief of number of Gods. The ancient Egyptian religion reflected in a polytheistic background.
