u gotta believe something-for me it was to believe the Jewish prophets and Moses

Moses said "Without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness (Kippur/atonement) for sins." Leviticus 17vs11

Isaiah said "He will be exaulted, but first marred more than any man. He will be despised and rejected, and lay down his life as an atonement for sins. All we like sheep have gone astray, and the Lord will make to light on him the iniquities of us all. He will die with the wicked and be burried with the rich. He will see his spiritual seed and prosper."
Why not believe Moses and Isaiah and come to faith in Messiah Jesus-i prayed and recieved Him as he asks us to do- Messiah im sorry for my sins, come into my heart, help me and be my friend.
spoke from heaven and recorded in Scriptures "Behold I love you unconditionally, and I knock on your heart to come in and deliver from sin, to become your friend." Revelation 1vs1& 3vs19&20

As a Jew i have come to know Messiah Jesus-doU?

Jains predate Christianity by about 1,000 years:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jainism



I only recently discovered Jainism and find it a very interesting philosophy or religion.

Jains are atheists who believe in an eternal universe and life cycles. They also promote non-violence, sharing with the less fortunate, compassion and other virtues that were incorporated into Christianity.

I'm not a Jain but it appears to be a very solid foundation for people who seek a religion but are tired of the continual bickering and fighting that accompanies all Bible based religions.

Some people have a hard time grasping what it would be like. I have heard some people say darkness but that is incorrect. Did you know that people born blind do not see darkness.. Sight does not exist for them. People born deaf probably do not hear nothing, hearing does not exist for them either.

The brain has very similar structures for sight, hearing, touch, taste. There have been experiments done where portions of the sensory data were replaced with other portions (Neurons normally used for hearing were placed in sight and it worked).

Here is what I think it is like:
Without these portions of the brain we would no longer experience such senses, even remember them. As with senses we can also lose our self-awareness. Once our brain ceases to function we no longer exist. There is nothing, not even the concept of nothing.

to clarify what I mean...

what if one day, there was some catostrophic event, and suddenly metaphysical and magical things suddently were manifested. I mean (hypothetically) demons and various things being physically there, some people able to make fireballs and whatnot, (yes, like in tv/movies)

active sorcery and such, both holy and unholy, and all sorts of that kinda thing out in the open, and undeniably real.

what would you do? how would you react? what if you found yourself having some form of "supernatural" ability that you might not have even belived in existing before, or would have declared as being evil, (and are not of such an inclination that you'd get it if it were evil)

just indulge the hypothetical what if here... "that could never really happen" is irrelevant. this is imaginary "what if".

They never recieved absolution for their sins through the Blood of Christ, so they must be in Hell for all Eternity, right?

I mean, it's one thing to be all arrogent and say that your way is the One True Path, but it's a different thing to strap on some dynamite and kill people, isn't it? When will these poor, misguided souls finally realize that 'Bob' is the only way to go?

I'm not asking a perverted question so please, no perverted answers.

I'm wondering if you are in love with the person you are, flaws and all. Also, where is the boundary between loving one self and the sin of vanity?

Thanks!

Do you think they had some sort of religion? I wonder how far back religion originates from.

Summary, there are many variations:

The shell game is usually a con game that requires the sucker to choose under which shell a pea is hidden.

For more complete explanation:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_game



Bible based religions generally require a person (the sucker) to correctly choose under which shell (cult, denomination, religion) the pea (salvation) is hidden.

And Bible based religions are promoted much the same way shell games are promoted, e.g., "give me your money (time, effort, support, dedication, etc.) and I'll give you salvation."

How are Bible based religions any different in practice than a shell game?

They call Christians infidels but the Pope calls quotes something that says Islam is violent and they go and protest, kill nuns, cut off heads and crazy **** like that.
I'm Christian and if I get insulted I ignore them, reply, but I won't kill them no matter the insult.
