I recently read the book, In the Shadows of Giants by Orson Scott Card, an Enders novel. One of the theme posed by the author is this question: Is a religion a TRUE religion if you cannot choose to leave it? That is, would you be killed or otherwise bodily harmed if you abandoned your current religion or if you are forced to join a religion at gunpoint or pitchfork is that "religion" a true path to God?
I can voluntarily leave my path of Eckankar without risk of social censure or threat to life or limb. Is your religion a true choice?
Of course, if you would rather go fishing, check out http://www.fishing.healthyhuman.net .
But I am curious to know how religion is lived here.

How interesting that you also have Eckenkar where you are from.
Dear anonymous,
It has been my experience that the Eck exists every planet and the spaces in between.
