    Confused about Sikhism/Hinduism differences

    There are a few. The main one just follows the Sikh Rehat Maryada as issues by the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandakh Committee (SGPC). There is also the Akhand Kirtani Jatha (AKJ) - they are very strict. There is the Damdami Taksal who have their own Rehat Maryada. There are Nihung Sikhs who...

    About Abrahamic Religions

    It's interesting that Judaism would have a better track record of not killing non-believers or other non-conforming individuals when most of the directives to slaughter homosexuals, witches, etc. are from the Old Testament. Does that mean Christians are interpreting those passages incorrectly...

    Anglo-Catholic Catechism

    Thank you Shiranui. I read the catechism from the Book of Common Prayer. It's a lot shorter than the Roman Catholic one!! :)

    Aussie government spying on Indonesia

    I'm just worried about the cattle. I guess the best thing to do is try to police them more on it. But it's incredibly off topic so I'll just shut up.

    Aussie government spying on Indonesia

    Here I was thinking everyone spied on each other. Just we were unlucky enough to get caught. Maybe it would help if we stopped our live export to them again. *fingers crossed*

    Anglo-Catholic Catechism

    Hello I wasn't sure whether to put this in Catholicism or in Anglicanism, so my apologies if this is in the wrong place. So I've seen the Catholic Catechism, and I've read the Anglican catechism from the BCP 1946 version, but do Anglo-Catholics have their own catechism? Am I right in...

    Denying prasad because of meat?

    Everyone else has already answered the question very nicely. Quite often a sevadar tries to give me karah prashad and I decline because I've already had some. He doesn't know that though. And they've never got upset by it, they just move on to the next person. Having said that the customs at...

    Why don't Christians give burnt offerings?

    What is the process for giving a burnt offering? How should the animal be slaughtered before being cremated, or is it not specified? Thanks

    Confused about Sikhism/Hinduism differences

    Does it mean "Why are you worrying about the rivalry between Sikhs and Hindus?"? I'm probably totally wrong LOL! I don't know Punjabi (I can read Gurmukhi but I don't know hardly any of the words) but I like to try and guess. :) Here's a good English/Punjabi dictionary: Shabdkosh |

    Can You Recommend a Quran App for Andriod?

    In the end I bawked at the 40mb requirement for the alislam app and installed this one instead: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.verypositive.Quran It appears to have a clean interface, but the way it highlights paragraphs when you tap them is a bit annoying. But it's a good...

    Confused about Sikhism/Hinduism differences

    No my question was about you saying that the Gurus believed in Abrahamic prophets. Is that what you meant or..? And what do you mean by 'believing in'? Do you mean you look up to them as historical figures? Thanks for saying a bit more about yourself, helps to keep things in perspective...
