    Discussion on religion.

    It does - greater understanding is always appreciated, but in my opinion it still fits the basic structure: As i mentioned, all religions give you some instructions to follow. In this case, i suppose, the instruction is, among others, to "accept Jesus and ask for forgiveness", because presumably...

    Discussion on religion.

    i'm interested in many things. that doesn't mean i have the time to read up on all of them. if you're going to say that you must read up on stuff to debate it then you're taking an academic elitist's perspective. It is possible to gain a lot from simple debate with laymen. That's the point of...

    Discussion on religion.

    It seems, then, that you firmly agree with me. My whole argument has been that the morality of religion isn't exactly Godlike. I dont agree with their morality at all. I'm saying the one thing that Osama bin laden and a well educated muslim will agree on is that their religion provides a system...

    Discussion on religion.

    Once agian, while i specifically said that i wasn't aiming at any particular religion, you are only helping anyone if you support what you are saying. Explain to me why this doesnt apply to Christianity. I'll even give you a template to save you time: Me: Good people go to heaven. You: Me...

    Discussion on religion.

I get the impression you're a person of science. So...

    Discussion on religion.

    Some who read this article may wonder, "How can a good and peace-loving God allow innocent people to suffer? If he controls everything why does he allow war and natural disasters to destroy thousands of people, including innocent women and children?" Originally the world was good but this...

    Good point. So the only way a reincarnation cycle can serve to make you a better person and get you into heaven is if you know you are being rewarded/punished. In which case the original flaw present in all religions is present once again and its a bad test of goodness. Looks like reincarnation...

    Discussion on religion.

    While you sound like you know your stuff and i missed the point of the karmic cycle, you're missing my point. Even if the cycle exists for you to escape it, you are not eternally condemned to the cycle if you gain karma in one life. It's a gradual process by which you work towards the final goal.

    Discussion on religion.

    This is just me spitballing. I’m 110% sure other people have thought of to the ideas I’m about to discuss, but I also came up with them (mostly) independently so I’m not gonna bother with any referencing. This piece of litratchure is about religion. It’s just what I think. If you are going to be...
