    Most correct religion for mankind

    How do I contact a Mod and ask for it to be moved to a more appropriate area?

    Most correct religion for mankind

    It was previously suggested that Judaism is the most correct religion for mankind. Yosef, a secular Jew, disagrees. Is Judaism the most correct religion for mankind?? If not, is there another in particular that fits the bill? I think we all can agree that a religion can be right or wrong for...

    Why Judaism?

    I was not assuming, either - I said I *felt* like you were assuming but I never said you were and I was careful not to because I did not believe that was your intention. And I have been using other sources. However, I still feel communicating directly with a Jew is the best way to get an...

    Why Judaism?

    I feel like you are being very defensive and assuming I have ill intentions by asking a question...of course "tone" comes off more harsh in the web world. Whether or not the origial statement I asked for clarification on is "right" or just an "opinion," I don't see why speaking with someone who...

    Welcome! I'm fairly new myself. The one thing I've realized is while most of the community is tolerant, there are some who automatically get defensive when you ask a genuine question about their faith, feeling you are attacking them instead of wishing to learn from them. That has been the most...

    This would be deeply sad for me too, even if I'm unaware. An afterlife without reuniting with those I love in this life is not a paradise, IMO. If there even is an afterlife - and I'd almost rather we cease to exist completely if I have to continue "being" in any other way. But I'm still...

    Why Judaism?

    It's not an unfortunate waste for someone like me who is really interested in Judaism because of having broken from Christianity due to issues with Jesus as a "savior" (and the entire NT) but still very much attached to the original Abrahamic roots. But whatever...:(

    Will the West be Pagan again?

    Can you clarify "again" for me, please, and what countries are considered the "west?" I was (perhaps falsely) under the impression that the U.S. (and Canada similarly) was founded on Christian prinicples by protestants escaping Catholic persecution in Europe. Are you including the entire...

    Existence and Perception

    I've confused myself too...:facepalm: And yes, from the way we've been describing and defining reality, it doesn't seem much different from delusions. Majority rule seems to indicate what is real and what isn't, lol.

    Existence and Perception

    But individual reality is subjective, is it not? If my thoughts create reality, is it just created in my reality? And then how do we judge ones reality against anothers? Wouldn't that make some psycho's delusions real, and not a delusion at all but rather his reality?

    Existence and Perception

    Good question. Maybe this is where "enlightment" comes in?? Are you suggesting that perception and thought are the same? That was how I initially was writing the OP and then stopped to think of how I would define each, and then they seemed different - so I don't know. :shrug:

    animals

    I choose to believe that animals/pets do have a soul because the thought of reuniting with them in an afterlife/heaven/whatever is just as comforting to me as being with family and friends because they are my family and friends. An eternal afterlife is not a blissful place to me if I can't be...

    Cat Spraying

    We have two cats, both females, one is almost 4, the other is 3. The 3 year old started spraying about a year ago, lining certain walls, the sides of furniture, etc. We're going to get her spayed in a month but I'm worried this won't correct the problem. There have been no changes in the...

    Existence and Perception

    We are taught very early that grass is green, snow is white, the sun is yellow, etc... but what if what I see as "red" you see as "blue" and another sees as "purple?" We are all taught the "name" of the "color" that we each see, but that doesn't mean our perception of the the actual color is the...

    Do You Fear Death?

    Well, I don't fear the "afterlife." I worry that the afterlife won't be what I hope it to be here, even if I won't care then, I do now. I fear "dying" as in how, when, where, and I feel a deep sadness at the thought of not being with my loved ones anymore in this life since they are a big part...

    Have you ever Astral Projected?

    I used to all the time as a child, not really knowing what it was or what I was doing...I actually referred to it as "flying" when I'd tell my parents about it. I have very distinct memories of them though no one ever believed me. I've never "tried" to do it as an adult and not sure I'd...
