Heretics!

[Sgt.Wild]

Alright,we have Christianity,we have Buddhism,he wave Hinduism,Islam,Judaism...
All of them have their own codes of conduct,their ''gods'',their teachings,what i want to hear you guys arguing about is...

Is any one of them...false?

In the bible is written that our only Saviour is Jesus Christ,the only true ''God'' is his father,we were educated since birth to follow HIM,if we do not,we will go to hell...or something like that.
Suicide...accord to the bible,suicides don't deserve forgiveness,for that they shall go to hell,in japan,people often suicide themselves to keep their honor after doing some (censored)...but for them,there's no hell!
In the viking culture...the man that hanged himself would go to the Valhalla!
He would be considered an honored dead!
But...if we follow the bible,they were wrong,they shall suffer,blah,blah,blah.....
People often said to me that,we(catolics,protestants,etc...)should had educated them as responsables Christians,but that to me seem just like what an CRUSADER would say...
And that brings another question....the probability of ''god'' existing....science X god,mysticism X reason.....
Make your bets gentleman....

Ever consider the possibility that there is no false religion?

Here’s what I think. All cultures worldwide have their own beliefs about the supernatural, right? So, perhaps they are ALL true to some degree. Maybe whatever paranormal force exists out there is just perceived differently by different people.

What you ment...is that...we all,worship the same god right?
If you did...let me ask you another thing,alright is the same god...but what i want to know really is...
The teachings...aztecs killed themselves because they believed sacrifices would bring good harvests,the vikings slaughtered people because they thought that if they honed their skills they would go to the valhalla...
The Budism...says that we must not kill,for Buddha could reincarnate in the flesh of anything...ANYTHING...yes the steak at the barbecue...that was budda...yep.
Some cultures enter in conlfict...some accuses the others of being false,and that bring the ultimate question....has the civilized human distorted the teachings of god to fit the modern world?Is the bible false....?

I believe that yes, God does exist, because there just seems to be far too much evidence to the contrary. It might just be luck, but if so, I'm pretty freggin' lucky. I prayed to meet the girl of my dreams, BAM! Next day, I met her. I said God dammit because of something so silly I won't even mention it, I got diarrhea for the next three days.
I'm not going to say that other religions are false, because as God stated in the bible, "Do not worship any other gods than I, for I am a vain God." Which could imply that other gods exist and God gets kinda ticked when you start worshiping them instead of him. Each culture has, since the dawn of man, had their own version of God, whether he was singular or in a pantheon. Having gods is human nature, and we of the modern world are no different. I believe in God firmly, because my life has shown me he exists. Others may have discovered other gods who they believe suit them better, and that is fine as well. Each religion had different teachings, maybe not so much because they were wrong, but because God may have given them a different plan or set of rules, a different view of things that he knew would shape their culture. He gave the Greeks a pantheon because the whole 3-as-1 concept may not have entered the human consciousness yet, and he gave them war because without their fall, other democratic nations could not rise elsewhere, which may very well all have been part of his grand plan. I state nothing as certainty, but I do believe that God exists, and that he has guided almost every culture of every species to rise on this planet since the dawn of time, and will do so until the end of time and then into the next sequence of realities. That's just my viewpoint, however, and I refuse to try and push it on others.

I believe there is a god of the christian belief for many reasons.Of all of them, i have to i feel like there are two i will share. My first reason is I use to have problems with suicide, suicidal thoughts, etc, and every time i thought about death, a feeling crossed over me that my life is not that bad enough to even consider suicide. And i just knew it was god. My second reason is: think about the Big Bang theory, (Thats a funny show) It was like a one-in-a-Googolplex chance that that actually happened. From there, everything happened just right. The sun was just the right size, and the earth was at just the right distance to support life. Next, somehow, single-celled organisms just happen to evolve over millions of years to create the world we live in know. Now i don't know about you, but that seems like slim odds that we are here merely by coincidence.

And besides that, who knows how many OTHER worlds that may have had the exact same thing happen to them since the Big Bang. Our one in a googleplex chance, in a near-infinite universe, has probably happened countless times. Therefore, I have to think that something is guiding us.
On top of that, I personally don't believe in luck, and when something happens so extraordinary and unrelated to anything I'd been trying to do (which seems to happen every time I do something good), I just feel like someone, who I do believe is God, is looking out for me.
