    Favorite '90s Song(s)

    Ah we're going back to my childhood :)

    In your belief why God created us

    Well I suppose Brahma made the conditions for life to develop because he's creative and generous with gifts. He is one of the more benevolent gods by disposition, it seems. Of course, Brahma only made the conditions. As a polytheist speaking- he didn't shape human development alone. I'm pretty...

    If you're liberal, I believe your faith is in doubt

    Oh dear, and her mind is already that indoctrinated into narrow thinking about liberals? :(

    First Impression of Religion

    I was raised agnostic. My first impression of religion was naive. I thought all religion was uncritical and silly, pretty much. I saw religion as a great mess of confusion. I wasn't sure Jesus had existed. Now I think he did.

    If you're liberal, I believe your faith is in doubt

    You may very well think that, but I have to ask: how much you know about these other religions you're trying to lump into your premise? Just as an example: Buddhism has a liberal spirit at it's fundamental core. It was a progressive moment at it's inception. It would have been seen as radical...

    Another Interesting Curiosity of the Baha'i religion

    @Tony Bristow-Stagg not to speak for Hindus, but speaking as a Buddhist- I don't think it is the Baha'i cause of unity sometimes opposed by people of these other religions. I think it's the Baha'i insistence that we other religions must line up to what they say it ought to be. Baha'is add a...

    Is it time for Hindus, Buddhists, and Jains to draw closer together for the world's sake?

    @DaniëlT I thank you for your interest in this project, and I believe your interest is sincere. This is a DIR, but I'll answer you once. I haven't thought out to the full what form this Dharmic unity ought to take, but I suggest a more specific kind of ecumenical-style dialogue- like a council...

    Isn't the exclusivity of Scientific Verification accepted on faith?

    I understand why one should accept science. I accept it. Do you think this thread is my way of implying I don't? Precisely my point. I won't address the Romulus statement because it'd be rehashing what I said in this thread about 20 times. If I thought I had any further new details to add...

    Jehovah's Witness cartoon suggests to Children that magic-themed toys make Jehovah 'sad'

    Not to mention, making it sound like Greeks were as dogmatic as the monotheistic religions tend to be. Not all Greeks shared Plato's notion of the soul- at any time. Plato's idea was actually rather unorthodox for a Greek because he denied eternity in Hades and held to a kind of reincarnation-...

    Another Interesting Curiosity of the Baha'i religion

    Oh the unity is a wonderful aspect. As a philosopher that has investigated differing frameworks though, including world religions- I appreciate some of the very real differences and that they are not seen as minor details.

    Former CIA Director John Brennan: "Our Future Is In Jeopardy"

    Sadly, it does appear to be something like one. I'd say political cult or political messiahism. I tell ya- Americans can sure pick em. Trump has gotta be the biggest clown on history's list of demagogues. He definitely fits with Hitler and Mussolini. His rhetoric and playing to fear is the same...

    Is the Bible God's Word?

    I have actually seen evangelicals call the Bible itself 'God' o_O Like the actual bound in leather book

    I am wrong often, just not able being the last post. See? Update: See, I even typed 'able' instead of 'about' :p

    Is the Bible God's Word?

    It is also implied in Joshua that the earth is the center of the universe. Joshua 10:13 Why should the Bible be treated like a science book? Even by Christians?
