Yoism, a new point of view

Yoism is a new label to me. It will require some research to see what it means and who it is important to. I make a link here so we can research it further.

In another contrast to religions that are familiar to most of us—religions
that are built on "truths" received from special, long-dead "authorities"
who
supposedly witnessed or participated in miracles—The Way of Yo teaches
us that
our knowledge, our Truths, must be based on what people everywhere
can directly
experience for themselves, today. Despite the repeated claims
that there is
"overwhelming evidence" for this or that traditional belief,
the poor,
contradictory quality of such evidence was demonstrated over a
quarter of a
millenium ago by the philosopher, David Hume. This is why
traditional religion
inevitably resorts to appeals to blind faith, i.e.,
belief that must be accepted
without evidence. Indeed, such faith is often
taken to indicate piety. So in a
major contrast with the standard religions,
the existence of Yo, not only can be
proven, it has been proven by modern
science!
