- Go to Maybe the key is to not focus on spirituality at all
What door are we trying to open?
The 'Key' of life? The "Key" of freedom? The "Key" of heaven? The 'Key' of hell? The "Key" of knowledge?
If we do not worry, we have no need even for a 'Key' ~Peace

SuccessWarrior - how could there be anything to worry about if a person is
doing those things?
The definition of all versions of God, no matter what religion has created the definition, describes a being of infinite mercy, love and perfection. The criteria that a person must believe that this being exists comes directly from this being's organized fan clubs, despite claims to the contrary it cannot come from a being so defined. Some of these fan clubs have even gone as far as to pencil this criteria into their holy books while overlooking the fact that it negates the very definition of this being once this criteria is deemed as mandatory. (either that or one look at the world's religious divisions shows us that God's supposed words are completely fallable, again negating the definition of this mythical being)
We must also consider another aspect of these universal definitions, they are all geographically and culturally specific. What this presents us with is the conundrum of determining what qualities as found in humans would also be universal? It can only be doing the best one can to be the best person they can within the environmental limitations of their culture, their era in history and their geographical birthplace.
