Intense psychological turmoil - and encounters

[Ray1990]

yeah but nah,
 
your op link is opinion, no authority and I didn’t have your common experience, or anyone else’s 

you don’t know my faith, clearly
I am not sure you are do anything more than creating in your own mind, a faith (Christianity) to suit your own narrative 

I don’t need to do anything you suggest, Jesus already completed everything, I need to rest in the works of Jesus

In Christ, I am already a Priest, in Him, I already have open access to God
I just have to hold my faith and not rely on feelings

Feelings, and that seems to be your message, feelings 

As this relates to UFOs and that thread, no UFO experience either, so no turmoil or scream out moment you infer
Poor me

I suspect Christianity would not encourage anything interrelated with nature-worship so yes, Christianity won't be encouraging anything Sirius is mentioning or linking.

Personally I've seen first hand the link between heightened awareness and spiritual awakenings, I'd say it tastes exactly like psychosis triggered by trauma although I'm not going to call people experiencing these things nuts since it's far too dismissive of their experiences, you know? Feelings?

I mean, why are churches on crossroads? Why the inquisition and the killing of "devil worshippers? The Romans would adopt local god's and faith systems since they often mirrored their own god's and systems they already came across, I only mention that because Christianity also actively absorbed, destroyed and demonised such practices mentioned by the op whilst they built churches upon once sacred ground... Or newly consecrated ground depending who you ask. Does any of that mean anything to you? It doesn't with most modern practicing Christians.

Beyond the basics principles of a follower of Christ their was clearly an understanding of other systems tied in with a desire to see them gone, they knew about this kind of stuff and incorporated strategies to make them irrelevant, doctrine says bad things about them, on the opposite side it could be said I'm saying bad things about Christianity although I can happily switch to other religions because this activity isn't actually based in faith but fear. Muslims fear 'magic' too, god knows what the Aztecs believed, they weren't the first to build where they placed their capital though... Probably down to human nature right?

All that said, there's syncretism within Christianity too, it's not all black and white. I'd suspect that the majority of followers of a religion do not have a 'calling' and their faith is based upon actual faith and not so much experience. From that I can assume other aspects of the individual but I'm not keen on making an ass out of you or me (assuming) and like I said the ones 'called' often tick most if not all the boxes when it comes to psychosis, forms of schizophrenia etc. Probably down to human nature?

I honestly don't know, I'd strongly argue these are discussions that should be had though since "new agey" experiences are being sought after by quite a few, the ones I talk to often show great ignorance to the past and are dismissive of the possibilities regarding psychosis... That's definitely human nature.
