You said that religions are all centered around the idea of a supreme being, but this is not so. Some forms of Buddhism are atheistic, in fact. The only belief, then, that seems to bind religions is the belief in "the spirit" or "the soul". I could be wrong, but it seems to me that most religions hold some sort of belief about the mind coming from "the soul".
This isn't really a question, so feel free not to answer it. Just thought I'd chime in.

I'm sorry if i was wrong about Buddhism but i don't believe in any aspect of it. You're right saying alot of religions have to do with the soul. Everybody has one even if you don't believe that. Why be in a religion that's atheistic? Personally, to me that makes no sense. I'm a Christian because i believe in God and His Supreme Being over me. But religion requires a lot of faith. That's something you have to agree on there. If you read the Bible, it could totally answer alot of your questions. I'm not gonna try and convert you exactly. But you know what i believe in and i'm strictly going to enforce that. Any more questions/comments you have i'd love to talk. If you want, my sn is the same as my columnist name. Hope i helped!!!
