Religion help?

Question

I am cosidering to learn about all religions, not follow all(that would be too difficult) just learn and maybe attend religions. Do you have some good sites or advise for me, i could use some help right now. I already know about Wicca and Kemetic Orthodoxy(i follow those two religions), do you have any other suggestions 4 me?

Answer 1

First I recommend compiling a list of the religions you want to research. Some are more difficult to understand (Hinduism, Egyptian gods) while some are more defined and easier to understand the basic thoughts about the religion (Christianity, Islam)

Wikipedia is a good start for basic information on every religion.

Then you could probably find a lot on Christianity and Islam on the web.

For more indepth info on other religions, I would recommend going to a library and getting books written on the specific religions. Or you could ask some specific questions on here.

Answer 2

Today humanity is being challenged. Unthinkable atrocities take place on daily basis. There is an evil force at work that aims to destroy us. The agents of this evil respect nothing; not even the lives of children. Every day there are bombings, every day innocent people are targeted and murdered. It seems as if we are helpless. But we are not!

The ancient Chinese sage Sun Zi said, "Know your enemy and you won't be defeated". Do we know our enemy? If we don't, then we are doomed.

Terrorism is not an ideology, it is a tool; but the terrorists kill for an ideology. They call that ideology Islam.

The entire world, both Muslims and non-Muslims claim that the terrorists have hijacked "the religion of peace" and Islam does not condone violence.

Who is right? Do the terrorists understand Islam better, or do those who decry them? The answer to this question is the key to our victory, and failure to find that key will result in our loss and death will be upon us. The key is in the Quran and the history of Islam.

Those of us, who know Islam, know that the understanding of the terrorists of Islam is correct. They are doing nothing that their prophet did not do and did not encourage his followers to do. Murder, rape, assassination, beheading, massacre and sacrilege of the dead "to delight the hearts of the believers" were all practiced by Muhammad, were taught by him and were observed by Muslims throughout their history.

If truth has ever mattered, it matters most now! This is the time that we have to call a spade a spade. This is the time that we have to find the root of the problem and eradicate it. The root of Islamic terrorism is Islam. The proof of that is the Quran.

~~ Baste,,,, If you are Truly Serious about learning from ALL religions then you would be wise to learn from where and whence they came,,, or were created. The quintessential authority on the subject is a late professor from Sarah Lawrence College, who wrote many books on The Mythologies of Man. His name is Joseph Campbell. Go to a bookstore and check out all of his titles and see which ones resonate with you. The Short Cut answer to your probable question to follow is,,,Live According to The Golden Rule is essentially "The Answer" to all Religion,,, it's in The Details that gets everything mucked up. Good Luck,,,

Answer 4

With the state of religion, and its horrid past, Buddhism has remained relatively above the rest. It is a religion of self truth and understanding. While I am not a Buddhist, I do follow many Buddhist principles in my life, Theravada Buddhism has been growing in the west, there is a good chance you could find a temple in your area and ask any questions you might have.
