    The Spirits Book

    I happened to watch a movie yesterday about "The Spirits Book". The Spirits Book - Wikipedia I though it fictional story and was watching for interest until in the movie I heard that the source was the 'Spirit of Truth'. So I thought I would look it up. It was a book published in 1857. From...

    Questioning The Veracity Of James 5:15-16

    Some (not necessarily here) have accused me of expecting too much from the Bible's promises. I've mentioned that the only promise made by Jesus that appears in ALL 4 GOSPELS is: "Ask the father for ANYTHING in my name and he will give it to you." Some say I'm not reading the promises in context...

    Amen and Awomen?!

    The government is dictating you on how to pray. Will you follow Absolute Truth even under fear of the death penalty? How do people keep having a high IQ scores, if they say such prayers?

    It is Logical

    Life, It is really just pure logic. Logically creation is founded in pure Intelligence, because lack of intelligence does not create. Logically we would be guided, if there is a creative Intelligence that wants to guide us. Logically that guidance would be made known unto us and Logically the...

    We are One and Free

    Australia has changed a line in its National Anthem. "The Australian government removed a reference to the country being “young and free” in the national anthem, amid concerns the existing wording overlooks the history of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people that stretches back tens of...

    How can the Jew reject, Jesus, Muhammad, Bab and Baha'u'llah?

    How is this possible? Israel is the centre of the Faith in One God. Stands to reason God chose the Centre point of all God given Faiths. Stands to reason they would not last, if they are not of God. Israel has millions of pilgrims each year going to give praise to One God. Jews and...

    Heaven - Being Reborn as Dogs/Cats

    Many people know that Hindus believe that we come back as lower life forms - bugs, animals etc First of all let us understand that Hindu ideas were never meant exclusively for Hindus - Hindus don't preach that way, these ideas apply to ALL of us. These are God's laws - they apply to ALL life...

    New Film Mystery of God.

    There is a new Film out about Abdul'baha. I enjoyed watching it, but the soundtrack is a bit dodgy in a couple of places. Otherwise a good short story of his life. Regards Tony

    Is Faith Dangerous?

    Last time I discussed a Dawkins video, most atheists here on RF agreed with him. So this time I'd like to cite this video: in which he insinuated that belief without evidence, which he calls faith, can lead people to commit any crime. See minute 1:20 of said video. Is he right in generalizing...

    Looking outside your Box

    This thread was inspired by comments in an OP saying prople are in a box, if they offer some Faiths may have some incorrect doctrine. So the Question we should consider in this debate could be; Would not Doctrine form its own Box? Consider doctrines are formed to explain the unknown. So...

    Answered math-conjectures without solution

    The incompleteness theorem of Kurt Gödel (re-proven in the link below), tells me that there are questions in Science and mathematics which have no solution, but have an answer. Only God knows what is the answer: for example, to the Riemann Hypothesis (is it true or false, no third option)...

    Why Believers Can Not Be Quiet

    I have been reading posts and I have even said it may be best to be silent when it comes to matters of faith. Silence has its place, but in the end the silence will always need to be broken, as little progress can be found in silence. I thought about God's Messengers and wondered about what...

    Any human is not quantum

    Definition: Nature is what the observer measures; and the observer is who measures nature. Thus, the observer is not part of nature. Thus, he and his apparatus are not quantum. This supposes to solve the following problem:

    Incorrect References in Books written on Faith

    This OP is about incorrect references found in some religious books. It is specific to books written by people of faith about a faith and where they got it wrong. This OP is motivated by a post I started and then had removed, when it was discovered when a statement made was found to be...

    It's bigger than you

    This OP is about self Imposed restrictions, as there are many concepts we have to rise above, if indeed we want to see a world of peace, where as a majority, we agree to work for the good of all. If you have a faith, it is bigger than you. If you have any predudices, it is bigger than you...

    Signs for our times

    The purpose of this OP in a debate section is to allow for alternate input, at the same time offer what I see is unfolding in the world as per a Baha'i veiwpoint. (This is not official Baha'i viewpoint but a personal understanding of my observations) In the early 1990's Abdul'baha gave a future...

    Antireligious rule of Science

    There are many scientists, who believe in God. But the methodological naturalism is the basic rule of their profession. Does methodological naturalism strengthens and benefits their faith? Can a believer assume for an hour that there is no God, and not lose faith? Naturalism (philosophy) -...

    Unthankful Trump is healed

    Unthankful Trump is healed from COVID-19 within 3 days in the hospital. A miracle, I tell you! But he has not said "Thank you, God" in front of the cameras. That is inconsistency because in other cases he openly and bravely represents Christianity: The most influential Christian is not the...

    The Covenant of Baha'u'llah

    Some posts on RF have questioned the Infallibility of Abdu'lbaha. This post is to offer guidance on what Baha'u'llah has offered as to the Station of Abdu'lbaha and His given authority under the Covenant. A general introduction can be found at this link. Bahá’u’lláh and His Covenant | What...

    Christianity All Power Seized

    This thread is a result of a comment made in; The Bible a sure Spiritual Guide. The comment was: ".... God drowned almost all of humanity. Then he drowned the Egyptian army. He destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. He had his people kill every living thing in Jericho. He had Elijah kill the prophets...
