IMAliyu: Buddhism also fall to the category, like the reincarnation, there's no prove for it. I also like Buddhism and also Jainism, they are very moral without any God although they use reincarnation karma for their bases of morality. What I like is how they meditate to clear every worries. It's just a good philosophy. |

tintingz: Yes, they never said they where writing eye witness account or that they are professors of history...they wrote a story to pass a spiritual message and inform you.. Most employ symbolism and imagery and numbers... Except you are an initiate,they will not tell you...except they see you hungry for knowledge.. |

sonmvayina:The Bible is made up of several books written by different authors over a period of 1,500years+ and all these authors were inspired of God's holy spirit (2Timothy 3:16, 2Peter 1:20-21) Most of them never met each other but their accounts all point to the same thing. Things that look like contradictions are actually not so if you take the context of the place you're reading into consideration. You coming here to say it doesn't contain real life events is just a blatant lie. If you do not know something, you ask and you will be answered. What is actually contained in the books of the Bible? The Hebrew/Aramaic Scriptures(The Old Testament) The first five (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy) contain historical accounts from the beginning of creation to the foundation of the nation of Israel The next twelve(Joshua, Judges, Ruth, 1Kings, 2Kings, 1Chronicles, 2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther)are historical books. They contain historical record of the time of Israel's entry into the promised land, the Judges of Israel, the Kings of Israel, destruction of Jerusalem, the epilogue after the destruction of Israel) The next 5 (Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Songs of Solomon) are poetic books. They contain songs, psalms, wise counsel and wise sayings. The book of Psalms even contains some written prophecies about the Messiah and God's Kingdom. The next 17(Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi) are prophetic books. They contain prophecies concerning God's people, the Messiah, God's Kingdom, they also contain some historical record. The Christian Greek Scriptures (The New Testament) The first four (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John) are written records of Jesus' life and ministry The next 1 (Acts of the Apostles) Contains historical record or information concerning the early Christian congregation and spread of Christianity in the first century C.E. The next 21books (Romans, 1Corinthians, 2Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Phillipians, Colossians, 1Thessalonians, 2Thessalonians, 1Timothy, 2Timothy, Titus, Philemon, Hebrews, James, 1Peter, 2Peter, 1John, 2John, 3John, Jude) are letters to the early Christian congregation in the first century C.E, letters to individual Christians and letters in general to Christians such as how they can conduct themselves as Christians among others. The next 1book (Revelation) Contains prophetic visions that were given to the apostle John. I wrote these to clear any doubt concerning the Bible and somvya stop confusing people all the more if you do not have any idea what the Bible contains. |

tintingz:Based on agreement! So..Informed worshipers or semi-informed worshipers - And what do you call people that lack belief in God or gods?Confused or misinformed worshipers As long as we wake up each day to think, talk, eat, drink, walk, work, dress and do so many other things that insanes do without considering whatever anyone thinks, feels or say, but we try to as much as possible to meet up what is agreed upon as normal surely there is a God/gods somewhere dictating for us all, until we realize this there can never be PEACE in any human society! We must identify the force dictating how things should be done! |

karo93:The issue of eternal torture is subjective. whether we live after death to face a horror of eternal torture or a blissful city is still figment of human imagination nobody really knows. having said that, this life is more important because we live in it and know it any one religion in the name of himself or a god that will mike life a horror is not a true religion. |

I think if there is one true religion, the creator of the universe would make it so perfect that no human would be able to point out blemishes in it. For now, I believe all religions are man made It should be easier to differentiate the God own religion, more than the way it's easy for us to differentiate cold from hot water. If you noticed, religion people have started defending their religions on this thread subjectively. This is what has been ongoing since time immemorial. Each sect always find a reason to justify his own religion, albeit no objectivity 1 Like 1 Share |

Xmuslim: You made perfect sense with this but there is just one problem you're still having, that is the capital in your write-up. We are humans and we think differently, moreover if you're sincere with yourself you will know that hypocrisy has no bounds. People may choose to blur their own senses to certain things no matter the consequence so far it doesn't go down well with their selfish motives and desires. So let me correct your statement and try to have a rethink on the matter:- The Creator of the universe should have made the one true religion so perfect that NO HONEST HEARTED individual would be able to point out blemish on it! Honesty is the first thing we need to consider before making our resolution on any matter, i've been to places and i can tell you Sir that most people will turn good to evil and evil to good whenever it's not in their favour so don't wait for others to make decisions for you on this matter, try to make use of your own conscience. God's own pure worship is standing out clearly today, but it's only honest hearted and sincere individuals that can notice it while the remaining billions will continue to justify their choice of religion in order to present themselves to be fair! 3 Likes 1 Share |

This thread is a very sensitive one ! Hundred men will tell you hundred reasons/ways to find out the True Religion (Reason (1) because of Diversity in the nature of men.) (Reason (2) because of Diversity in the Culture & mindset of men) Most religions claims I am Right, Others are wrong. Therefore, there is no one True Religion (Reason: For every Religion X, it will be and always be the wrong path in the sight of faithfuls of Religion Y,Z,...all others) The moral of religion is to guide man to the right path, make us live a modest, holy, truthful, sincere life and to be kind to others (Biggest moral is "not to be a harm to fellow lives" with subject to "mindful quotient of fear for faithful compliace" God himself will never create One right path that only leads to him & create several other wrong paths to lead mankind astray. (Because he creates the Diversity & understands that Millions of mankind wouldnt all think/choose alike) I would have been an Atheist, but considering the fact that the Anatomy/intelligience/structure of mankind and the universe is obviously too far from being called an accident or mere bang collision (accidents dont bring planned orderlines!). Do not waste your precious time to find any useless proof/fact/evidence because, Godliness is spiritual (not science). Godliness & Spiritualities cannot be proven using scientific thesis/medium beased on facts & physical evidence (If you doubt this, Hold your head with your right hand v early in d morning before eating, call your names & your mothers name and lay curses of your day's endeavours. Tell your day to be ruined with adversities.....then judge your outcome with science) My take: I might be wrong or right. Its all man for himself & a free world, take your own take too based on your own reasoning Whatsoever Religion you find yourself doing and getting Results, Whatsoever Religion you find your own "Self-conviction", Whatsoever Religion you find appealing, Whatsoever Religion you find Peace Follow it faithfully. If (no one nows) there will be any form of judgment/accountability after death, you will be judged based on your Religion. Religions are like Subjects we take in Schools, and you will be only be examined based on your chosen subject. No true Subject, all are based on your ability/passion/interest. Students doing fine in Mathematics might be doing so poor in Economics, its left for students to find out their strenghts and choose based on that. Thank you (I wouldnt respond to anyone ) 1 Like |

tintingz: That's the miracle! Now you tintingz who have always been refuting the existence of God, even to the extent of always rendering his title with small letters (gods) suddenly personified his as your God in capital letters! Well that's how great God is! Now you may go and tell your former cohorts that you now have a God and it's one of his Witnesses that opened your inner eyes to this fact! |

Maximus69: Circular argument as usual. You once agreed that Bible is not error free and you are here telling us how honest you are for following such religion. The concept of original sin in itself is NONSENSE and you want a whole me to believe in such CRAZY idea. Sincerity my foot I don't argue with jehonah witness anymore though. I was even reluctant to read your post, but I thought you would be logical in analysis. YOU ARE A VERY FUNNY MAN DEFENDING ILLOGICAL IDEA WITH BOLDESS |
