What is religion in relation to the soul?

 There are so many religions out there - which one if any do I choose?

Jesus was not a great fan of religion , in fact he often spoke against false 

beliefs even admonishing his disciples. He explained the Father , himself and us as being one. 

Ye are gods! Religion is very good act creating ethical codes to follow and not all bad. Basically

its acceptable in a modern society to have a code of ethics. 

 One problem with some religions is the tend to address sin as the main reason for religion as a sort of 

cure. A cue for sin - really. To me religion is only like fabreeze for the soul. It may take the small away

for a short time. It is the soul that is what God wants "All souls are mine". Because in fact we are already

Gods soul. It is just the realization that is missing. Some may say its this realization that frees us from the

confines of the flesh or body. It is guaranteed that this body will return to dust. From dust to dust. 

 We conceive that we are apart from God , in fact we are one. The world will always point out your sin to 

try and keep you un-realized or lost. What happens in the religions and governments of the world is you

are told to bow down, beg and suffer. We are taught to be obey the laws and the church - 

just be good. However Jesus didn't teach that , he said none are good. None, not one. Even Jesus was

offended , why do you call me good. Only his heavenly Father was good. 

 Not that I say sin is acceptable. Of course many sins are harmful to our health and the health of the family 

or community. We should not obsess - if you instead realize you are your own biggest enemy - your own 

flesh and desires there of hold you back from realization of your true nature. 

 If we were to see our souls  as mirrors reflecting God , and we need to keep the mirror free of smudges

to get the best reflection.
