Why not live to the enjoyment of human potentiality and fufillment and excercise our beliefs through the ways?

Question

of various. Why could we not take the wise words of Muhammed, and live by and for the earth like Buddha, or be self-conciously aware and try to lead a descent life, loving all like Jesus, or practice the meditation of Hinduism, and the afterscents of their various cultures? For isn't it true, that all prophets speak of peace and tranquility-based on monotheism, justce and respect for human dignity? In the words of Iran's Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Why not talk? Is there a need for destruction of human life in one singular entity; to entirely dispose of a human race. We are all valued? As much as some American's may dislike, or even loathe, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was he not once a child, a rare and innocent child born to a human mother. In so being he is of equal right and value as every other one of the 6.5 billion people on the planet! So say what you wish, but he is human, he deserves credit for that. There are no perfect souls. To exterminate anentire race Ihave only but one word.. Holocaust

Answer 1

^Why not throw away all the foolish mythology you mention and simply live like decent human beings?

No, it is not true that most "prophets" speak of the things you mention. Only the prophets you mention did. Leave us not forget the other "prophets" whose legacy is not an organized religious strcuture, like Adolph Hitler, Charlie Manson, Aldous Huxley, Machiaveli, and on and on.

It is truly sad that people have to rely on the words of others to figure how to deal with others and live there lives, don't you think.

Answer 2

The other ways appeal to people to some degree because there is some measure of truth in them (otherwise no one would believe in the first place) but only truth can really lead humanity to achieve its full potential. To the extent that what Buddha or Muhammad or any other religious teacher agreed with the truth, we would do well to emulate the behavior. Jesus however, was more than just a great teacher. He claimed to be God incarnate. so, if you believe He is who He claims to be, where other teachings deviate from His, they are wrong. If you do not believe Jesus is God, then you are free to adopt any other belief you wish. Doing so would lead you to the level of human potential possible when you follow that teaching. To claim that Jesus was merely a great teacher is a contradiction; for He claimed to be God. If He is not God, then He must have been deluded or insane.
