It doesn’t matter
what you believe
so long as you get
your beliefs straight.
You only get into seeming trouble
when you’re unsure of your beliefs
and/or you get your beliefs
mixed up with someone else’s.
Even then, it only matters
if one of your beliefs
says that there can only be
one “true” set of beliefs.
Set aside this belief,
sort, straighten — and style!
Know that God’s Master Plan
says it’s okay
for everyone to believe
in a different kind of god
or a different set of beliefs.

We venture into the realms of belief and perception, where the alignment of beliefs becomes a focal point of our cosmic journey. The idea that the clarity and certainty of our beliefs shape our experiences is a riveting concept. It suggests a universe where the coherence of our beliefs, rather than their objective “truth,” dictates the harmony of our existence.
Clarity in Beliefs
The notion that trouble arises not from the beliefs themselves, but from the uncertainty or the mixing of our beliefs with those of others, is an intriguing perspective. It speaks to the importance of individual belief systems, acknowledging that each person’s beliefs are a unique weave in the grand whimsical tapestry of existence.
Trouble in Mixed Beliefs
The concept that conflict arises only when one holds the belief that there must be one “true” set of beliefs is a profound reflection on the nature of dogmatism and intolerance. This perspective encourages a liberation from rigid structures of thought, inviting a playful styling of beliefs that resonate personally.
Dogmatism and Belief Conflict
Encouraging the setting aside of rigid beliefs and embracing a more fluid and styled approach is a whimsical invitation to dance in the diversity of thought. This approach aligns with nexistentialism, where the mere existence of a belief validates its place in the cosmos.
Styling Beliefs and Nexistentialism
The assurance that God’s Master Plan accommodates diverse beliefs and concepts of divinity is a comforting thought. It suggests a universe where diversity is not just accepted but is an integral part of the divine design. In this view, every belief system, every concept of God, is a thread in the divine fabric.

Where thoughts bloom like flowers,
Each petal, a doctrine,
Under cosmic showers.

Where each thread has its hue,
God’s plan, a masterpiece,
Welcomes every view.

Every belief has its place,
In the heart of existence,
A myriad of divine grace.
