The Secret in the secret, it kinda says that you control your own destiny. i always thought hashem controlled everything. in chumash class, we learned that hashem is involved in all of our lives. but the secret says that the law of attraction makes no mistakes; that it works every time. dosent this sort of go against religioon?

Actually, i think it all means the same thing no matter what religios you are. I mean, everything is just another name for God. Energy always was, always will be, is everywhere and in everything. God always was, always will be, is everywhere and in everything. See a connection? ]
it depends on what religion you are. however, i dont think the secret (aka the law of attraction) goes against any religion. it depends on how you look at it. some people could see it as praying to god, and then he delivers what they ask for, some could see it as karma, and some poeple can believe that the law of attraction is exactly what it says it is, with no higher power working to accomplish things. however you looka t it i dont think it goes against any religion, just because a religion doesnt mention it. ]
As a believer in evolution, I'd have to say that the secret, which says you control your own destiny is not what most of us believe. Because it states that you control your destiny by controlling your environment in a kind of mind-over-matter way. If you see only thin people, you will be thin, etc. It's actually not religious nor logical. It's something close to superstitious, or a belief in the supernatural powers of the human mind. It's not religion, it's not logic. It's new-age belief in the hidden powers of the brain.

exactly. the secret is a psychological book. it says that everything is logical. it fits in the category that believe in evolution instead of creation. it`s something along the lines of that. ]
