Airlift, in answer to your question Confucious says:
Man who keep feet firmly on ground have trouble putting on pants!

Very good post and basically identical to how I view Religion. People often fail to note the difference between religion and spirituality. At its core Hinduism is a beautiful religion and subscribes to the belief that you should use the image of The Divine that suits you the best. How many Gods does a Hindu believe in? 1-3-33,333 is the answer. You use the image of The Divine that helps you the most to become more spiritual. But in the end, they are all the same thing. Anyway, its been a while since I've discussed this stuff and I don't want to get my facts wrong. But eMa. Thank you for this thread, too often I don't take the time to think about these things and just go on ignoring them. Thanks for the reminder. |

Denali, I'm not asking to be flamed! THAT'S WHAT PISSES ME OFF!! because I'm an atheist and I explain why (people usually ask anyways, so it doesn't matter), I end up getting flamed by assholes!! I was somewhat happy that this thread so far didn't include any flaming!! that's the kind of arrogance I worry about when I mention that I am an atheist
sry for the flame... just continue talking regularly.....

I'm not going to read through this entire thread.
Any debate over religion is pointless. Relegion is based off of faith, something that doesn't require a reasonable explaination. My guess is that we are just here as entertainment for the gods(yes, plural), which play only a very limited role in the world. They probably have rules about how they are alowed to affect the world, so that they can get the most fun and/or chalenge out of it. Don't know anything about the afterlife, because I haven't been there yet.

We also get to hear the thoughts of other people and may gain new insight on the issue and gain new questions to ask ourselves. This in turn gives us new ideas on the subject and our own beliefs begin to evolve.

lol, i'm sure it was
I think it is good to talk of these things, it makes you think about your faith and beliefs... I believe in a lot of ways, its those who do not want to discuss religion that are strict in their ways... or completely nonchalant about the scenarios in its entirity... but i wish you would take the time to read at least some of the post... that way you can learn, if not about the person who you are... then about the people we are. eMa |
