    True Liberty Requires Submission.

    This post is founded on my understanding of these passage found in the Baha'i Writings. "True liberty consisteth in man's submission unto My commandments, little as ye know it." Bahá’u’lláh, Gleanings from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh, p. 335 It is obvious that humanity at the current time will...

    Let's say that your sacred text is perfectly moral...

    Let's say that you're sacred text is perfectly moral, and all of the prophecies have actually come true in a completely unambiguous matter. Given that hypothetical, why should anyone believe that a god is responsible, let alone the concept of God particular to your sacred texts?

    No other Path to Unity but God.

    This is a follow on from the New Athiest Humanities Downfall? It has been recorded. "The well-being of mankind, its peace and security, are unattainable unless and until its unity is firmly established. This unity can never be achieved so long as the counsels which the Pen of the Most High...

    God of Gaps is one of God's holy names

    Are advances in science constantly pushing God into the dustbin of history? No, the area of the unknown is expanding faster. 94 percent of matter is Dark Matter and Dark Energy, and nothing is known about them. Unknown, except for me. The matter is of 4 types, one of them is Invisible...

    Unity in Diversity

    How applicable is this concept for humanity to find a path to unity? Surprisingly, it is a catch phrase being used across the world now, becoming popular as humanity strives to find a unity in the affairs on mankind. Where does this concept come from? Well I see it is founded in many faiths...

    Incompatibility of consciences

    I have an M.Sc. degree. Hence, I am more or less a Thinker as well. As being the one, I would like to be convinced of making mistakes. Others might become convinced of my falsehood, but I want to be convinced as well. I listen to my colleagues, I consider their opinion. But their opinion has...

    My Worldview in full

    The matter is not Spirit. Spirit is Love. A thing is living if the Spirit considers it as a living one. A thing is invisible if it cannot be directly detected even by scientific detectors. There are reasons why the bodies capable only of gravitational interaction cannot be directly detected even...

    Exemplar

    In commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the passing of Abdul'baha, a new video has been released on His life. It was a life of example of unity and peace. If you choose to watch, it is just over 55 minutes and I hope you enjoy. Regards Tony

    Choices

    The purpose of this OP is to explore our Choice of Faith, is it a choice, is it not? I have read in other OP's on RF where people say it was not a choice, that their Faith was a natural process that required no choices. To an extent I agree, as I see God has created us all in the same image...

    How can evil exist if God is omnipotent? And how can free will exist if God is omniscient?

    Title. How can evil exist if God is omnipotent? And how can free will exist if God is omniscient? My thoughts: God created evil, which is why it exist. Free will doesn't exist because god is all powerful. What are your thoughts?

    Declaration of Messenger, True or False

    It has been brought up that a Messenger may only be delusional when they make a claim that they bring a Message from God. So let's tell a story of how these things unfold and in the end there is only two stances we can justly take, it is either the Truth, or it is false and delusional. I will...

    If you become God what would you do?

    Being a follower of Hinduism, the first thing I would do (as a personal God) is end the endless cycle of karma (cause and effect). No more suffering for lives after lives for one bad deed committed in ignorance. I will also do some tweaking to Maya/illusion. I'll remove Maya's 'tamas'...

    God is Omnigender

    I want to propose an idea where God is neither male nor female. Rather he is the perfect combination of both Here are the supporting arguments from the Bible: Genesis 1: 26-27 26. And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the...

    Only a god can kill another god

    ABSTRACT: "God is Spirit" (says Bible) "The satan is evil spirit" (says Church) I simply put these two dogmas together. The result: satan is god. Any fallen angel is no longer angel, but the devil. Why? Because Absolute Good can not create Absolute Evil. Otherwise, only Absolute Evil exists...

    Just Believe

    I just can't believe it. o_O How does a person believe in something for which they have no evidence? How can one just believe in a god, when they have absolutely no evidence? I don't get it. :confused: To me, that's like one standing on the edge of a mountain, without any glider, singing, "I...

    Some Sunday Questions for Christians

    1. If there are two possible worlds, one where only a perfect god exists who lacks for nothing, and another one that contains this god and also sin, corruption, non-believers, and infinite suffering, which world do you think is better? Why would a god create this way, rather than just choose not...

    Christian Polytheism explains Strange Verses of Bible

    If something feels distasteful to extremes, then that something is certainly wrong. Hear your heart! I have no conflicts with the seven Church Councils. I am not a heretic. I speak for my Church. The highest authority in Eastern Orthodox Christianity is the first seven Church Councils. I can not...

    Getting better every decade?

    Me: "In how many years will people get better? Definition: getting closer to God than satan is to become better." Satanist: "Why did you decide that God is a positive character ??? Have you read the Bible ??? Genocide, murder - this is all from His business. If the Devil exists, then I am on...

    Where to direct those who ask “Can You Prove There is God?”

    Where to direct those who ask “Can You Prove There is God?” (Unless you are Self Realized and able to prove it yourself of course) When Vivekananda Asked, “Can You Prove There is God?”
