Have you found an institution and/or ideology that you believe is objectively true, or do you deny such a thing even exists? If you are still searching, where do you currently stand?

Roman Catholicism, although I don't believe in papal infallibility. The core of what I believe about the world and religion is contained in Matthew 22.

All religions are more-or-less metaphysically valid but they are also all ruined by normies. There is no "One True Religion". Some are generally better or worse for spiritual development, and different people will be drawn temperamentally to different paths.

the pope is literally a faggot.

To put it very crudely I think of the church, really everything but that includes the church, sort of like one of those Japanese broken pots repaired with gold. I'm also an anti-rationalist I guess, I don't believe that knowledge as defined by "justified true belief" is real, only truth and belief and a heterogenous set of imperfect constructs connecting the two are.

The later. Every religion is "true" because at the same time none of them are. They all point to the same absolute thing, as originally these traditions served as metaphors to give structure to which has no structure. However, there are ones that are "closer to it" than others, and the institutions themselves have done their best to subvert the texts and people perspectives for power struggles, which just amounted to layers of unaproachable superstition and the eventual rise of atheism. Mysticism and Philosophy are two sides of the same coin.

Yes, Guenonian style Traditionalism/Perennialism

because "natural forces" o algo, despite the fact we have no explanation as for why these natural forces exist without descending into magical thinking

>>25356361
>Religion exists, deities do not. Language is important
And yet it doesn't matter if the deity exists, so for someone who says language matter you wasted your breath and time basically agreeing with the people you disagree with.
