    Wondering About Different Religions

    I have spent a good deal of time studying Christianity from Catholic and non-Catholic perspectives. I have read all of the Qu'ran, but have not studied it. I have read all of the Socratic dialogs, and am impressed by the Father of Philosophy, his method of inquiry into spiritual matters, and...

    Wondering About Different Religions

    You didn't seem judge mental to me. So is not experience also limited by what one doesn't desire? I mean there are things I've experienced that I would rather have not. Desire, in such cases, fails to limit.

    Wondering About Different Religions

    Wondering About Different Religions

    Socrates tells me why: "I have long been wondering at my own wisdom. I cannot trust myself, and I think that I ought to stop and ask, 'What am I saying?' For there is nothing worse than self-deception, when the deceiver is always at home and always with you. It is quite terrible!" (Cratylus) I...

    The Religiontific Method

    From what I've seen in various Christian circles, there is a tendency to cite biblical texts to support one's views. Though there is sometimes disagreement over what texts are authoritative, or over the reliability of said texts, or over the interpretation of the meanings of said texts, or over...

    Wondering About Forgiveness

    I want to learn about different religious beliefs. Not sure, but I'm thinking that comparing ideas about something we all have in common--forgiving--might open my eyes a little. So please tell me: • What's your religion? • What do you believe forgiveness is? • When do you believe you should...

    Wondering About Different Religions

    Thanks. My thought is I need to save time by having thoughtful discussions with a variety of religious minds. This seems a good place to start, though I might go to another site if I find a religion I'm interested in studying more in depth.

    Wondering About Different Religions

    Terese: Thanks. I think it's a bit overwhelming. Looking through the different sub forums, there are so many listed. It's hard to know where to begin. Is there a forum where I can get a variety of religious views on a topic?

    Wondering About the Book of Mormon

    Norman: I'm just using the words to make a comparison. I know what an epiphany and déjà vu feel like. So I wonder if the "burning in the breast" described in the Book of Mormon is similar or dissimilar to one of those feelings. Please tell me if the feeling that convinced you is like or unlike...

    Thanks, but neither of those sites has a forum. I did find a forum, here: Profound Words On Faith - Social Hall - Mormon Dialogue & Discussion Board If you know of any others, please post a link. Thanks. :)
