Have you ever said to someone, "I have my own religion"? It's a statement we commonly hear, so let's break it down and think about it a moment. First, do your beliefs about spiritual things correspond to reality? I hope so! Because if they don't, you are just "playing house" - that is, you're pretending to yourself that things are the way you suppose them to be when reality is quite different. It's alright to "play house" as a child, but when we grow up we find that we have to learn to deal with the real world! Forget to drink enough water on a hot day, and you'll get dehydrated. Forget to put gas in your tank, and you'll run out. Could it be that way with spiritual realities as well?
