IN THIS PODCAST YOU'LL FIND:
What’s the relationship between personality types and joining religious movements? Are there some that aren’t compatible with religion? Do certain types leave their religion?
What personality types have the tendency to gravitate to certain religions?
Externally structured– are surrounded with organization and various methodologies (for example: actual buildings that you worship and certain sacraments that you follow).
Internally experienced – some people have much more comfort in expressing their religion internally. These people are not interested in external markers and have that sense of private worshipping processes of expressing their faith.
Baptists
Have the tendency to be individual expression-oriented in the religious faith. Personal salvation is big. If they don’t like what the pastor or minister is saying, they’ll simply just move to the next church and they’ll look for someone who’s more in alignment with how they feel.
Attract a lot of feeler-perceivers because it’s about your personal faith expression and personal salvation.
Presbyterians
A lot more organized as a collective and structure-oriented. The congregation’s a lot systematized.
Attract a lot of feeler-judgers and thinker-judgers.
Accuracy people (TPs) have the highest likelihood of leaving religion in general. Oftentimes they leave early (teen years). If there is something they can convert/move on with, it usually is Buddhism. Why Buddhism? Because it does not require them much faith or submission to established systems. Buddhism is more inclined on practices, meditations and exercises.
Intuitives V Sensors
Intuitives do speculative thinking – things that can’t be proven by reality.
Sensors – more interested on what can be verified
Intuitives tend to be the one’s leaving religion at some point.
Intuitives are the ones who are comfortable with redefining.
Understand that no group is entirely representative of those who do or don’t describe themselves as religious.
Whatever is your dominant cognitive function (driver process), if you are in a religion that doesn’t honor it or allow full expression, eventually you will leave that religion.
If your driver process has full expression of your religious belief, you’re probably stay in the religion for a long time.
Ask yourself:
Is this truly serving me or just leading me to unhappiness?
How can we make sure that we haven’t outsourced our belief system?
What tools and models can we gather in order to take a deeper look at the structure of what we think and believe?
Let’s celebrate each other’s differences and cultural backgrounds.
