...And Carry A Big Stigma

AITOOW wants to replace the words Jesus, Allah, Jaweh, etc with "conscience", "pride", "purpose", etc? You shouldn't be seeking the approval of some ersatz father figure. You should be seeking to please your own conscience. If these concepts are working through you or around you, it is one and the same. It shouldn't be WWJD (et al). It should be what would I do that would make make me proud of what I did. It shouldn't be Praise Jesus (et al). It should be praise my decision making process. By substituting a few words, you take the passivity out of conduct. It may also encourage atheists and alternative believers to explore the philosophies. Most of these names now interfere with the message they are trying to deliver.
