This table illustrates the wide spectrum of religious beliefs. You can recognize the world's predominant Western religions by looking along the middle rows (01, 1, & 2). Individuals (and religions) tend to have beliefs concentrated along one row with overlaps into nearby rows. As we progress, our focus row moves up, while still embracing levels that went before. The infinite I, realized through infinite spiritual thinking and being, enables you to integrate these.
