i just got off work so my clever skills of perception are a little challenged right now, but i read up to page six, and don't see how it really pertains...and i've now got a headache...

there's just some beliefs that seem to have started out a philosophy, borrowing concepts from religions and their deities and spiraled off into a religion...despite the aversion these groups have for the idea of religion...and on a personal level...i don't have a religion persay, but some of my beliefs could be considered religious...i'm just trying to get other opinions on what seperates a practiced belief, from a philosphical approach and how it all could possibly morph into a religious inspired practice.

so it's really not a philosophical ponderance, and i'm not wanting to debate religion...i just want to know if i had a valid arguement or not, from those who have no idea what was being argued...if that makes any sense.
