Universe is the biggest church there is
I think maybe God is the vacuum of the universe. All the time quarks are popping in and out and eventually they form into dust and stars and galaxies. I think God's is our free will because you can't have both. In regards to the atonement, that Jesus died as a pure sacrifice for our sins, I don't think that is correct. The idea that God demands perfection doesn't match observations in the universe. Planets wobble, stars explode, and it seems like most of the advances of civilization come from making mistakes. How many times did Edison try before getting the light bulb to work? And when you think about it, if God demanded Jesus sacrifice, it's basically human sacrifice. That would be wrong if we did it so it doesn't make sense for God to do it. The last thing today is I don't believe in eternal life. Seems like the universe is all about death and rebirth. One generation takes over after your gone. I'm giving it my best and then I turn it over to the next people. I'm content to let my ashes nourish the soil for ground cover that gives off oxygen. I think with the last pulse of the heart, blood flows to the brain and that is when people in near death experiences see their life flash before them. I think most of this pulse ID probably shielded by the skull, but some gets transmitted out to the universe where maybe people can pick up on any good ideas the person had.
I'm writing this as an intro to try to figure out how to keep young people involved in churches. Because most people these days don't go for worship and theology but I think are still interested in helping others through service projects. Seems like you could have churches without theology. Seems like you don't need to be baptized or recite a Creed. We are already part of the Universe, that is the only I.D. card we need.
