thehomer: writing has been in existence since around 6600 BC (the Jiahu symbols carve on tortoise shells is evidence) or even before that. However, even if writing had not been in existence, the religion was still passed down by word of mouth. WHY IS IT THEN, THAT OUT OF THE THOUSANDS OF DIFFERENT PAGAN CULTURES, NOT ONE HAS A RECORDED FOUNDER are you saying that ALL of them forget this imprtant detail. my, I have never heard of such a widespread selective forgetfulness disease which affected the entire world. thehomer: The Pagans infact had no reason to be fanatic because in those great days, there were no monotheists. also Pagan religion wer brotherly towards each other, because all pagan religion have the same basic structure and beliefs. many times a tribe also followed two Pagan religions at the same time. take a modern Pagan religion like Hinduism for example. one of the main tenets of Hinduism states that: All religions are equal. It doesnt matter what path you take to reach God, as long a it is the[i] right path[/i]. ofcourse monotheistic religions are never the[i] right path[/i]. we all have had some form of experiences as to that. also we Pagans do not say like xtians and muslims that non xtians/muslims cant go to their so-called heaven. and Pagans are not permitted to convert other people to their religions, unlike the convert-seeking greedy monotheists. you can only follow the path/religion of your people/ethnicity. e/g/ if you are Yoruba muslim, you can only reconvert to Orisha/Ifa religion but you cant follow Odinani or Maguzawa religion. |

Knight1: Tonye-t: always good to hear positive thoughts from xtians losing faith in foreign beliefs based on teachings of a dead desert MAN. [size=32pt]LONG LIVE THE PAGAN PEOPLES!!!!!!!!!!!! LONG LIVE THE HINDUU!!!!!!!!!!! LONG LIVE THE GODS IMMORTAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![/size] even our Nigeria had such deep spirituality in the days of our ancestors. we STILL have it, but it is supressed, hidden, in exile. it is time we bring back our old freethinking yet moral religion back and learn to repect the nature, the animals, the forces and the Gods. Learn my people. [size=16pt]LEARN!!!!!!!![/size] or else we will just rot in the state we are in today. backward spiritually and materialistically. poor, no development, no progress, only rot. |

PAGAN 9JA: Dont you think its rather pathetic to see someone happy because a Christians is feeling that some bad eggs amongst them(Christian fold) is trashed out?. . .there is nothing long in living hindu. . . nothing long in living a Pagan. Jesus remains the only way to the salvation of Man's soul. . .trust me you need him! |

the Hindu Religion has survived since the begiining of civalisation. your christianity is only 2000 years old. YOU NEED YOUR GODS. |

PAGAN 9JA: But there is some evidence that religious beliefs go back much farther than that. So far that it would be difficult to point at a single person as being the founder e.g consider this finding. Then recall the maxim that goes "A dull pencil is greater than the sharpest memory." PAGAN 9JA: Really? Then I guess you've not read something like this. PAGAN 9JA: Pagans aren't permitted to convert others? I think you should be careful of making such wide ranging claims since I don't think one person can have such absolute knowledge on pagan beliefs. Besides, pressuring someone to convert may be due to political reasons, reasons of safety among other things. Edit: Second link. |

PAGAN 9JA: Hello Sir, The concept called Christianity began around the year A.D 34 but the concept of rebirthing Man's soul by God began soon after the fall of Adam. Now tell me, which is older: Hindu or God's redemption plan? |
Re: Religious Man Has Kept His Hand Raised For 38 Years (PIC) by Sweetnecta: 6:45am On Oct 07, 2011 |
^^^^^^^^^^ Who began the concept of rebirthing the soul of man, Adam or who? Crazy Tonye-T. I forgot. Your boss, Satan must have told you this. You and pagan 9ja are two peas in the same pod. Carry on. I'm not mad at your Kufar self. Big Shayatin Ins/Rijal. Darn soul from Jahaliyyah. |
Re: Religious Man Has Kept His Hand Raised For 38 Years (PIC) by PAGAN9JA(m): 8:35am On Oct 08, 2011 |
