...the one true calling? I find it absurd and more than a little disturbing that no one realises the fact that 'religion' is a man made concept developed over time with extremely destructive consequences. Do religious leaders not recognize the need to communicate the truth and accept that we are no closer to finding GOD and lasting peace I personally believe that if Jesus Christ himself was alive today would be abhorrently disgusted in the behaviour of churches and their attitude towards other belief systems it's not the people im against it's the institution. what i want to know is are there any people out there who would be open to the possibility of believing in and channeling your energy into something that embraces everyone?
I am absolutely convinced that god and other creations exist and I believe jesus and that other man would be friends today chill out don't get too angry or hurtful..it's wonderfull to have faith in a cause just try and be open minded...
 
I do not believe that my religion is the only way to God (swt). It is impossible for me to have that kind of mind-set. Simply Impossible.
Bismillah erahman eraheem

“And to every people have We appointed rites, that they may commemorate the name of God over the brute beasts which He hath provided for them.” (22:35)

“Hast thou not seen how all in the Heavens and in the Earth uttereth the praise of God?-the very birds as they spread their wings? Every creature knoweth its prayer and its praise! And God knoweth what they do.” (24:41)
 
Faith can be just acceptable as proof.

For example, lets say you trust your love one that he or she wouldn't cheat. You love your love one so much to trust or put your FAITH in believing that her or she wouldn't cheat. You wouldn't want proof becuase it would only question your trustworthiness to he or she, but you love your love one so much to have faith rather than proof. It's the same way with God: You can put faith that God is alive rather than proof like above.
 
Not all religions make exclusive truth claims. Religions of the Judaeo-Christian tradition do so, as do Zoroastrians. Niether Hindus nor Buddhists make such claims but usually believe in some form of inclusivism. Neopagan and Reconstructionist religions are generally pluralistic.
 
Rooker: don't be an idiot, if faith can be accepted as proof, then all religions are true.
 
Religions call for their followers to devote their lives to the set of beliefs. No one is going to do this without the belief that they made the right choice, and putting down other religions to justify their own promotes the feeling that they are making the right choice.

Personally I see my life as too valuable to waste on a set of man-made beliefs.
 
I am open minded but when I look at the castle atrium all I see are vendors selling all the same shit. "Brother man light hope peace worker love salaam" or "Jesus god Mohammad Allah YAHWEH Buddha" as well as torment abaddon hell destruction jealously resentment psychological projection black pots and kettles and last but not least whimsical emotional appeal and geographical mind works.

In a nut shell. Fuck religion and its many followers and flavors as artificial as they all are.
 
Anybody can find the truth if they really want to. It is up to you. Nobody else can help you but yourself.

Best regards.
 
I have always found it touching that people think that the God of their group is the only God and that the rest of the world population will perish and they themselves will be saved. So silly, but many people take it seriously. Sadly enough, because it makes them turn against other groups. Mahayana buddhism has a nice feature, they think every sentient being will eventually become enlightened, no one excluded (even though that might take billions of lives for some of us). This more positive and inclusive outlook I prefer greatly to the small group saved/damnation for the rest-variants that are to scare us into believing the supremacy of their 'local' God.
 
Jesus is the only truth. Though everyone knows it, they simply rebel against him just to please their worldly lusts. There is no truth in any other religion, and except through Jesus no one can ever reach to God and have life everlasting.
 
Yeah Jesus surely did get along with the Pharisees and Sadducee's.
There is one truth. Sorry if tit offends you.
