OF YOUR OWN RELIGION??
2007-08-03 05:30:25 · update #1
I am a Hindu and hinduism allows any discussion, contradiction, research or criticism to our faith. There are so many philosophies in hinduism that one can reject one path and chose another as per his mind set.
Hinduism is the only religion which has Atheists philosophy too, which clearly rejected God

My religion invites a challenge. It is all part of the process. Why would you want to believe something that is taught?
An Atheist would rather hear it, and then try to argue against it, realise they can't, and THEN believe it.
Hence how I came to my religion, from being a non-religious Atheist. Make no mistake, I'm still Atheist, just one with religion.
I'm sure it's the same for believers of all religions, though. If you can't believe it by your own steam, you won't. I don't rightly know, on that score, though. It's possible some grow up with a particular opinion and do not stray from it, even if it is not theirs.
Okay I'm going to stop musing now. Thinking out loud isn't always helpful. lol.
I hope I have been helpful. I'm contactable, if need be

It is good to contradict the 'established' faiths, since the 'established' faiths are not teaching Bible truth.
They have set out a table of lies and too many innocents have ate it up.
e.g. hell-fire, trinity, immortal soul.
None of those ideas have anything to do with the Bible.
Contradict away!

Jesus Christ did it all day long, so yes, as His followers we would do likewise.
Problem is, you're statement would qualify that I, as a member of the body of Christ, am indoctrinated into some kind of religion, when nothing could be further from the truth.
The numerous, government sanctioned (501c3) denominations that have spread over our country as a plague, do not have Jesus Christ as their head. They have the government as their head. Therefore they cannot be of the body of Christ. I know, surprising!
I'm not saying that those within these denominations are all un-saved. I am saying that when they are informed of the truth (reborn), and God replaces their stony heart, then will come out from among their harlot churches.
I am living proof.

My religion doesn't pay much mind to other faiths.

I don't belong to any church and therefore no doctrine, no religion.
I believe the Bible and seek guidance from the Bible alone.
I have some issues with every Christian denomination.
To become a Christian requires very little knowledge.
Confess, repent, and ask Jesus to be Lord of your life.

God has said be not deceived by vain teaching..There is but one truth..and that is Jesus...we as Christians and children of God are not to be lured away by the false teachings.We are to stand firm on God's word.

Yes.
We don't feel threatened by intelligent questions.
