Are all religions sick?

Question

(yes is the answer in case ur stuck)

Answer 1

Kinda Sorta

Answer 2

I would love to know what makes the Muslim religion so attractive. It must create some sense of pride, or belonging. I know that the Catholic religion has declined so precipitously since the 1960s because people don't feel it has any meaningful place in their lives.

My opinion: EXTREME religions make you EXTREMEly stupid. Some of the most barbaric things have been done in the name of religion.

I admire the world envisioned in James Hilton's book, LOST HORIZON. In the isolated Himalayan paradise of Shangri-La, people are moderately chaste, moderately hard working, moderately honest, moderately...... everything. As a result, people are contented, and they have none of the problems resulting from societies which try to rigidly control behavior.

Answer 3

Yes

Abodah Zarah 17a. States that there is not a whore in the world that the Talmudic sage Rabbi Eleazar has not had sex with. On one of his whorehouse romps, Rabbi Eleazar leanred that there was one particular prostitute residing in a whorehouse near the sea, who would receive a bag of money for her services. He took a bag of money and went to her, crossing seven rivers to do so. During their intercourse the prostitute farted. After this the whore told Rabbi Eleazar: "Just as this gas will never return to my anus, Rabbi Eleazar will never get to heaven."

Hagigah 27a. States that no rabbi can ever go to hell.

Tall Tales of a Roman Holocaust

Here are two early "Holocaust" tales from the Talmud: Gittin 57b. Claims that four billion Jews were killed by the Romans in the city of Bethar. Gittin 58a claims that 16 million Jewish children were wrapped in scrolls and burned alive by the Romans. (Ancient demography indicates that there were not 16 million Jews in the entire world at that time, much less 16 million Jewish children or four billion Jews).

A Revealing Admission

Abodah Zarah 70a. The question was asked of the rabbi whether wine stolen in Pumbeditha might be used or if it was defiled, due to the fact that the thieves might have been gentiles (a gentile touching wine would make the wine unclean). The rabbi says not to worry, that the wine is permissible for Jewish use because the majority of the thieves in Pumbeditha, the place where the wine was stolen, are Jews. (Also cf. Gemara Rosh Hashanah 25b).

Pharisaic Rituals

Erubin 21b. "Rabbi Akiba said to him, "Give me some water to wash my hands."

"It will not suffice for drinking," the other complained, "will it suffice for washing your hands?"

"What can I do?' the former replied, "when for neglecting the words of the Rabbis one deserves death? It is better that I myself should die than that I transgress against the opinion of my colleagues." [This is the ritual hand washing condemned by Jesus in Matthew 15: 1-9].

Answer 5

No. Some of the more moderate religions are just feeling a little bit under the weather. Only the fundamentalist wings of each are really sick.

Answer 6

The Bible actually condemns religion... I'm not kidding. The issue the Bible addresses in it's fullness is the condition of mankind's heart. Not the outward rituals and writings that man creates for himself.

Everyone's heard the cliche, "It's not about religion, it's about relationship." That's true.

"Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world."

Answer 7

The answer has to be NO. I'm not a religious person, But anything that can give hope to people has to be very worthwhile. Though I will say that any religion that preaches terrorism has to be sick!!

Answer 8

Jesus and other prophets were killed for condemning those in charge of the churches of their day. People should realize that before they disagree. If you just read the life of jesus alone that point becames clear but the churches today hide this very fact and this is why we have the problems we have today.
deception is a very powerful tool of satan and he is winning people
Look for the creator for guidence not decievers of the souls.

Answer 9

no....i think religionshave all a bit of truth on their teaching but no one has the WHOLE truth.. when people tend to get radical on their beliefs that is when religion gets at its worse. It depends on the interpretation one gives to certain messages contained in the Holy Books (regardlessyour religion). But I really think that the answer to your question is a firm NO no religion is sick...some of the people who interpret it wrongly are sick...

Answer 10

Some of them are a bit on the controlling side. Have a lot of fantasies about a judgmental God. There are a couple of exceptions though. Buddhists and Hindus actually seem to have a lot of it right.

Look into them you will be surprised.
