im not rejecting, as in totally eliminating the possibility of an independent FORCE aside from our own individual "powers" or capacity to manifest phenomenon,,in fact i would like to play on the idea that this "force" is in the here & now,,,& that we are (to most of us) unconscious partakers of the entire process. We may call it the big "elcetron" & faith may able to tap it so as to produce phenomenon...though im not a big fan of calling it god for the simple reason that this god of the christian has certain rules for phenomenon to take effect.
And based on experience we cause effect to healing w/o the auto suggestion of this conventional concept of god,,in other words whether one chooses to use god concept, medicine, alternative medicines, rational theraphy etc,,,the point of the matter is,,,auto suggestion plays a great role to cause phenomenon,,,whatever the structure of the "suggestion"
And yes its not only religion that shapes its herd,,,too so many structures w/ the same intent at its disposal,,the knowledge of how marvelous our minds can be,,,as to create miracles, disease, conflict, healing etc.,,& from there the selected few tyrant may create a religion or other structure to be worshiped, to be followed, to depend upon, by the rest of the herd...maybe to blind them from the truth that the power is with in.
