Default what religion am i?

this isnt some type of riddle. i want to know if my beliefs match a religion.

i believe in a creator. not a creator of the universe or something that just placed animals on this planet out of nowhere. i consider the sun to be this creator.

i also believe that other solar systems have life forms on them, and those solar system's sun is their creator.

i believe the earth is a god, but only a god for those living on it.i dont think the earth is the only god, but rather the earth and the sun working together both as gods.

i do not believe that these gods actually care about any single animal's (including humans) problems. i also think that these gods dont value humans over any other organism. i also dont think these gods are human like at all, as other religions portray them to be.

its like a strong belief in science mixed in with faith behind it.

... Interesting...

Do these Gods and creators exercise supernatural powers on human or other life forms existence?

i believe they create diseases, start natural disasters and control evolution. but as far as people being "touched by the light of god" or anything like that, no.

You're an Ancient Egyptian. I can't think of any contemporary religion that personifies astronomical bodies as deities.

Well ancient Egyptians were big believers in after life. If i remember correctly that is why they buried the rich and powerful(pharaohs) with all kinds of stuff in their tombs. Believed they needed it all for the afterlife.

Afterlife was the next question that you missed out buzzby.

Without an afterlife, you're missing ancient Egyptian... and ancient Egyptian does have an afterlife and personify deities.

You sound "new age pagan" to me.

Sounds to me like you have just formed a wholly new heretofore unfounded religion. Since you are the very first member of said religion, you are like the pope, sorta. Now you just need some dogma, and a few bloody wars, and you are on your way.

I'm just kidding, I think Trocisp pegged it as a form of nature worship. I feel that the Sun and Earth are entities in their own right, and have seen such things described in some shamanic writings I have read. Hank Wesselman has written some interesting things on the subject, and I guess Carlos Castenada might have, but alas I have yet to read any of his works.

Look into Hermetic Philosophy for an insight into ancient Egyptian beliefs. The Kybalion, or John Baines wrote some stuff on the subject if memory serves correctly.

Sorry I haven't been around at all lately, I miss hanging out here, but it's farming season, and I don't really have time to be here now, I guess I'm addicted. Catcha next week maybe.

Peace and Love,

Broadly speaking, I'd say you're a pantheist.
