Bhuddhas ascension was celebrated by thousands of gods though who gathered around him and his disciples in the woods.

Baptist churches (in my opinion) are most correct theologically, but they massively lack the community and ceremony that the Catholic and Orthodox have. If you can find a more traditional baptist church you would be set, but many are now the "evangelical" style with modern music and chairs instead of pews and hymn books.

the only real things to avoid are Mormons and Unitarian types.

Nice trips.
Worshipping blindly means asking spirits for gibs constantly and bartering with sacrifieces for material benefits only like on a supernatural bazaar for your whole life right?
Sacrifiece as an optional "thank you for bothering to stick around and promote virtues instead of going to nirvana yourself directly" would be self aware worship or is the difference not that way?

They are aware of Gnosis but choose to side with the Demiurge.

While Christian Gnostics are following the Aeon of Aeons and his son as the Savior.

The Demiurge is the Gnostic Satan and our God is the All.

>I went to Catholic church with my friend and felt very out of place. There was even a guy who asked me what I was doing there, and suggested I attend protestant church instead.

That sounds really weird, try another church maybe. Every church is somewhat unique, if you don't like some priest or people attending you can just switch and find the one you like. I'm an atheist and I sometimes go to mass just because I like the rite in the older medieval churches, shits great and really helps to focus on your inner thoughts even if you dont believe. The sound, the lightning, everything, hypnotizing, but sometimes something just doesnt click with me and I leave if the church isnt the right one.

There are too many branch, I can only tell you the SE Chinese area's Buddhist (No related to tibet or china).

In short, we mix Buddhist with Taoism.
Which is bad.

Lot of idol worship, lot of incense burning, lot of paper burning.
Believe that by burning the paper money, we can give more currency to our passing relative or love one in the afterlife.
Believe that by chanting lot of the book without understand it, we can reach to "heaven" in the afterlife.
(Yes we still believe there is heaven and hell even though Amitabha reach nirvana.)

It is a whole new level of economic religion, fund a lot of business and temple tourism.

We have another idea how to continue our Race.

We seek the Completion of the Great Work. To obtain Immortality.

The Bread of Long Living and the Elixir of Life is very important to the Gnostic. We are in search of the Philosopher Stone you know as the Grail.

It is the Capstone.
>>
>>138727254
And recently, there are influence from tibet's buddhism.
Because our buddhism think that tibet's chant are more melody and sounds more elegant.
Even thought most of our buddhist don't know what it mean at all.

So personal speaking, I will just stick to self aware, self improve and nirvana.
Which is common to all branch.
Buddhist should not be idol worship but ideal worship.

Try a non-denominational church if there's one in your area. One that focuses on the life of Christ more so than Old Testament type stuff. But, always remember - most churches are also infiltrated by cultural Marxists. So be wary of what they're trying to teach you.

Ah, you must be from the chinese community then and are not malay.
Ive read about you a tiny bit.
Well, Idolatry and temple service surely must have some benefit for the people in some way. Chanting together, tending towards a common patron/deity, meeting with the family to burn paper and think about your dead relatives seems like something to ensure that you stay connected. Or is it too monetisized for your taste as the temples charge more then they need to sustain themselves with a lot based on questionable beliefs?
You disagree about their notion of afterlive then which motivates most of the deity worship I guess, isnt bhuddhist hell just something temporary though so not necessarily against reincarnation and nirvana teaching?
Same for ancestors stay in some kind of inbetween state which gets supported with spiritual cash- do they believe it stays that way forever so you have to support an ever growing cohort of ancestorspirits with mockup money or do they beliefe this only holds true for a certain amount of generations after which they slip into nirvana/the next life?

You are right about Shiva, so you must actually know something.

Yes, the tradition of paper burning and passing relatives can ensure we sort of stay connected.
But the capitalism of such tradition is very bad.
Funeral cost way too much.
Some organize use the religions as money making tools. (Tzu Chi NGO)

>You disagree about their notion of afterlive then which motivates most of the deity worship
YES, this is on point.
It make people follow the religion not for the ideals, but for the indulgentia.
This will always lead to someone abuse the religions for money.

>Buddhist hell
Well, the buddhist hell are called Naraka, and chinese mixed it with Taoism hell Di Yu(地獄).
In chinese culture, sinner will have to suffer in hell to repay their sin, and then they will rebirth, if their sin are too deep, they will rebirth as animal or incest.
If they are good people, they will rebirth as rich man's child, king's child.
You don't slip to nirvana after you repay your sin, you simply went to rebirth.
Which I think is very conflict with buddhist core teaching of nirvana.
You shouldn't follow buddhism for being birth as Rothchild, you should follow buddhism to escape this chain of rebirth.
>>
>>138729628
Yes, Idol worship seems like pray to Amitabha so he can take you to nirvana.

The LORD is not the name of the Creator. The LORD is the name/title for the Babylonian sungod Ba’al and is a pagan reference to just about all pagan “gods”… The LORD is a false god:

>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baal
"Baal, also rendered Baʿal (Biblical Hebrew בַּעַל), is a Northwest Semitic title and honorific meaning "master" or "lord" that is used for various gods who were patrons of cities in the Levant and Asia Minor, cognate to Akkadian Bēlu. A Baalist or Baalite means a worshipper of Baal i.e. The Lord."

>Etymology
Baʿal (bet-ayin-lamedh) is a Semitic word signifying "The Lord, master, owner (male), keeper, husband",

The LORD “Ba’al” was worshipped on Sunday the “day of the invincible sun” or Dias Solis and the sacrifice to the LORD “Ba’al” was the pig of Ishtar (Easter). The prophecies in 1 Kings that we would abandon Yahuah and follow Ba’al have come true in Christianity who calls on The LORD on Sunday and who put their faith in Easter. Just as Jeremiah foretold we would forget the name Yahuah and use the LORD as they did in Babylon.
His name is not “The LORD” or “Adonai” or “Jehovah” or anything else. His name is YHVH (Yahuah) and that is His everlasting memorial by which He is to be called upon.
Our English Bibles use the title The LORD for Yahuah which is a violation of the command not to add to nor subtract from His Word not to mention it is idolatry calling upon the Babylonian god Ba’al. We, humanity, have totally forgotten the name of our Creator which was originally written in His Word over 8,000 times! We replaced every reference to it with The LORD (Ba’al)..

Orthodoxy is heresy. Orthodoxy looks unappealing and wrong. Also If orthodoxy was God's religion it would not have 0 nations in top 26 best nations to live in. Also orthodoxy got rekt by Turks and Balkan orthodox nations were Ottoman for 400 years. Notice how best rated nation (Norway) is protestant and all protestant nations have it good.
