What is it? What would it entail? What tenets would it stress? Does it currently exist under one of the quote-unquote organized religions? If it does exist - what gives it credibility? If it does exist would you/do you follow it?
Question for philosophers and fools alike. Have at it good people. What do you think?

You asked for fools--so here's my input. ;D The one I currently follow--which is trying to pattern my life after the example and teachings of Jesus Christ.

It would have to account for all that is in existence - not just Earth.
That's all I can think of right now.

Has to offer continous proof of God. If i witnessed Jesus walk on water, or i saw Moses part red sea that would have been proof for me. But what about a thousand years later? Am i suppose to read these accounts and accept it as proof? Why can't i get my miracle too?

You must love it!

this...is why I bang with Huey.
To add: the faith to which I currently adhere (which I found for myself and wasn't necessarily "raised" in) does the trick the best I can figure

1. The mental act, condition, or habit of placing trust or confidence in another: My belief in you is as strong as ever. 2. Mental acceptance of and conviction in the truth, actuality, or validity of something: His explanation of what happened defies belief. 3. Something believed or accepted as true, especially a particular tenet or a body of tenets accepted by a group of persons.
1. An attitude based subjectively on emotions, rather than on objective evidence
The perfect "belief" system would be to have no belief at all. I'd rather just everything be absolute.
