There's a misunderstanding among Christians that Scriptural holidays are "Jewish" holidays. Scripture doesn't teach that. G-d says these holidays are to be observed throught time. So why don't Christians observe them when their own Messiah did? Aren't Christians to live as Jesus lived?

What is so funny is that, most of the people going to church, and they think god would forgive them no matter what, is true he does forgive people, but by doing same mistake over and over again, and u know u are doing it, i don't think God would forgive u as you keep on doing it, why do people go to church every sunday, and when they come home, they look evil to me, they speak bad words, they don't truth anybody, and they hate everyone around them. and they looks and shows they are believeing in god, to other people so those peopel can show how good they are. what of a waste of time, if u don't know whats there for you in church. why going wasting time, u may as well go to the beach and have funt here, if u that type of person, people going to church to believe in god and talk to god, but since you people are stupid ti understand this, then there is no wish for me for the people to make better place around us. because people who go to church they are the most hateful people i had seen

Christians are to pattern their lives after His, but He lived, breathed, ate & worshipped according to Jewish standards. It seems to me that Christians are blind to the fact they're worshipping a Jewish man. Do you not see a contradiction between His Jewish life & your Christian life?

The bible says that by partaking of the fruit of whatever, Adam did something that was not wished by "God", whether accidental or not, but in the same sense, wasnt that exactly what "God" had planned for the continuation of humanity?

Basically the ever-present thousands-year-old religions such as Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism teach people to be kind, humble, pure, self restrained, versed in knowledge, and so people can achieve peace, hope, and love in their lives.



Interestingly, all of these religions believe in the same God (The Creator of Heaven and Earth); heaven and hell; angels and demons (although they may dress differently).

The only difference is probably in the way they worship God (The Creator of Heaven and Earth) - although they may call him different names according to their own languages.

It does not matter HOW to pray or to worship etc... what matters is that if *you* pray and worship. Isn't it?

The current Pope had a choice ... he chose to join up rather than suffer as a concientious objector. Do you think he was an appropriate choice for the head of a religious body ?

kNOWING WHAT SATAN knows now-that he is damned to eternal hell fire for simply wanting to be God -"yeah like we all haven't wanted that at some point" and knowing that God will never forgive him (!) and being condemed by the world of christians (who side with their prejudiced God [oooo its a GOD!]) Satan would not want life on his worse enemy (and we all know who that is-imagine God The Enemy) he just wants the LIGHT to go out and all creation to end. No one burned no one hurt for God to commit suicide and then all suffering ends. Do you believe for a moment that Satan wants evil-he did not create evil that my friend is from the all powerful all knowing all my way or the Highway to Hell dude. Lights out and it is all finished. But this tough Guy called Jesus (I personally kicked him outta my life and it didn't take sheeet-wants you to believe that because he is God that you owe him something-well he can take life and shove it I am all for lights out as long as suffering ends FREEME

Also, why does no one ever actually listen to my arguement? But back to the original point of this question, a fact is something that when enough knowledge is obtained, every sane person will agree. For example, if something exists, but not everyone knows, it still exists, and it is a fact. And if everyone knew, it would still be a fact. For before everyone knew the truth, they had inadequate knowledge, and after they found out, they had adequate knowledge. And the true thinker's definition of "fact" never stated that it was not a fact before everyone knew. Anyway, an opinion, on the other hand, is something where anyone can justifiably disagree on no matter how much everyone knows. For example, it is okay to think that a certain flower is pretty, for it is in your mind, and there is nothing backing up the belief that you are wrong. But, to suppress another opinion would be wrong, for neither opinion is either right or wrong when faced with the laws of reality.

I'm curious and want to know more about this belief system, and more about Lady Tara and what kind of character she is. Is she a goddess? Do you heap superlatives on her the way Christians do their "God", or is she a believable character? Is she based on a real person, or does she have her roots in myth?

I'd also like to know what people think of Tibetan Buddhism, and Lady Tara.

Why do Americans act like god crazed weirdos? God this & god that. God is clearly made up. It is the same as any other cult, they brainwash you. It is just that widly spread that people believe it easy, simple minded people believe it & yes they must be very simple to believe something which is as close to bein proven as fairys. It's all writin by the people who want to push belifes on other people & it worked. If some nutcase was in the street now proclaiming to be the son of god & he knew a few tricks, would people believe him or lock him up? Jesus was a pysico, he lived in his own little world, he manipulated people & suckerd people in. Judas did NOTHING wrong other than try to stop this crap being spread which was the right thing to do. I have simpathy for people who don't enjoy life because of this stuff, when they die they get nothing in return cause there is nothing after death. America is just the western version of these crazy muslim countrys. Why do you believe such crap?

He who has put away evil, who is humble, free
from impurity, self restrained, versed in knowledge,
leading a holy life,
That man may be truly called a Brahmana.
For him there are no desires anywhere in the world.

We were having a worship and bible study in a persons house. The Lord was giving us His light that shines from His beautiful face and we were lost in romantic worship of Him...our Jesus. He began to cover us all in His white misty cloud of His presence and from in the midst of this cloud He began to give us flower like fragrances and gold dust started to appear on us as well.....we felt lifted up into Heaven and in His embrace.......Blessed Jesus...ty.....

To be a Christian, does that automatically make them perfect? It seems people think that when a Christian sins or makes a mistake then they are hypocrites. I know there are some extremists in Christianity, but are there some in every walk of life?
