Reality
There are super natural beings on the universe such as ghost/spirits. Also there are some ufo sightings that have been identified.
There is no god, he is watching things that happen and looking over us. The universe consists of nothing but matter and that’s all.
Matter is only in existence because of cause/effect relationships. There is only room on the universe for natural things not ghosts, demons or gods.
Each Individual’s time or reality is just an illusion.
Everyone has one mind and spirit.
Spirits act as a guide to help you with your search. Matter and self only exist with oneness.
God is a person and exist. God created the universe, we learn from god that he plays a role in our everyday life. God created human beings and we depend on him.

Knowledge
Knowledge comes from all things such as classrooms, grocery stores or just being in public. You can also gain it from listening to the radio or watching television.

Knowledge is based on what we know not what we can learn through science, knowledge is based on experience not logical reasoning.
Humans have feelings and desires. We use our sense to learn what we know. We learn from experiences too.
No Knowledge
Being aware of feelings, thoughts and goals.
Having anti-knowledge, senses and feelings.
Meditation screens out all senses until experiences can become part of who you are. Feelings are recognized. Experience with senses can teach us about our physical world.

The bible is a special thing for us that god wants us to live by. The general revelation is our world of nature and human experience.
Human nature
Humans have souls and minds, if we had no souls or minds then where do we get our feelings or emotions from. Our heart helps us with our emotions and opinions. Every person has a mind and soul.

Secular Humanists think that human beings are human and they are not animal. Human Beings do have freedom and we are pushed toward good morals.
We have the ability to use attributes that give us free will, self-consciousness and symbolic existence. Our inner life is not meant to be and means nothing.

We are all one with the universe.
We have no individual souls.
Our souls are souls of the universe.
Humans are evolved beings of powers brought by spirits. We are our future god.
Mental, Physical and spiritual being.
Free will.
God’s
