Truth is subject to practice and testing.If it is proper truth,we definitely will be able to acquire sweet fruits through practice .If it only abstractly promises a reward in future then..no comment!

Agreed.
If it cannot be tested, it simply does not exist. That is an irrefutable truism.
And just one more example of why god does not exist.

I would agree with that, though not everyone knows how to make the test. There are more similarities between Christ and Buddah than many understand. I'm sure you'll get alot of negative comments from "Christians," but they probably mean well. The Catholics were considering naming Buddah a prophet sometime in the 80s I beleive, but I never heard anything more on it. The Bible teaches that those who despise knowledge are fools. "Seek and ye shall find."

I think that a lot of what Buddha said was very intuitive. Yes I do agree that truths have to be tested. I think that not only truths should be tested to see if they are real.

"Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it."

Gautama the previous Buddha said everything is but your own 'concept of what is'... ! Until you are enlightened you can not know anything especially TRUTH!

Was Buddha a real person? I never met him.

Absolutely. Anything else, being irrefutable, is pure speculation. It can be proved that the predictive power of any theory derives exclusively from its refutability, so it follows that an irrefutable theory can predict nothing.

I agree with the statement. I can't tell you rather Buddha said it or not.

Agreed - how does Buddha prove he is real?
