I remember hearing about 20 years ago that religion and astrology were deeply connected. That Jesus represented the Age of Pisces. I find it really interesting that we are talking about change of biblical proportion as the Age of Pisces is coming to an end and the Age of Aquarius begins.
Yes, there are all sorts of "false dichotomies" present in religious and spiritual dogmas, and I believe they are meant to divide people using the belief of "my faith is right and your faith is wrong" when in reality, multiple things can be (and are) true.
For instance, even if you have one capital G creator God who is supreme, why couldn't you also have lesser plural gods or godlike entities? Why does it have to be one or the other? Look how often similar archetypes and personality traits appear in different deities of old religions, even if each has a different name for it. Why can't Christianity and astrology both be valid? If Jesus was a human man who was also the son of God, and said that all of us were also children of God who would someday do the things he could, then why is it such a stretch to believe that other prophets and divine figures might also exist?
I keep an open mind about such things and have a sort of working model that is constantly evolving. I don't get hung up on old stereotypes of God from thousands of years ago, because the idea that he hasn't evolved at all in all of that time seems ridiculous to me. He evolved so much even from just the Old Testament to the New Testament!
I might even get attacked on here for pointing these things out, but I am getting tired of insecure bullying dogmatists arguing over whose version of reality is "correct" when each of them only has one piece of the puzzle so NOBODY is incorrect, it's just they don't have the FULL PICTURE yet. To me, it just seems more like cultures and belief systems egoically fighting for dominance rather than searching for the truth, which in my experience is far more complex to the point where I'm still struggling to learn and understand it after 15+ years of study. But then, I think the money- and power-hungry leaders of so many of these religions/faith communities engineer it that way by design: "I have the truth, the only truth, and I'll let you know what it is if you just give me enough money and allegiance."
I'll tell you one thing I know for sure: it doesn't cost anything to have a personal connection/relationship with God, and don't let anybody ever tell you otherwise.
