There are thousands of human religions, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Mormonism, Protestantism, Catholicism, Mormonism, Jainism, etc......

It would take several thousand lifetimes to truly understand each of these expressions of subjective faith.

Does the fact that you as a human cannot experience each belief system render them all unreal, or does the requirement of faith for each do that?

  1. no. Some are too crazy when worshipping cows.


  2. I am a Christian.   It is not even possible for me to understand all of my own faith.


  3. Is it possible to understand all religious belief?

    YES!

    Its very easy.

    You dont really neeed to go into the nitty gritty philosophy of the religion in my opinion.

    You just need to know that they teach you a way to the ONE God.

    Once you understand that then believing in all the system is easy.

    Just accept that each one is trying to take you to God.




  4. You haven't yet understood that biblical Christianity is of the Christ of God and not from human musings.

    You've proved this by lumping Christianity (One God) in with Hinduism (330 million gods) and then pitting Christianity against "protestantism".

    It is the very nature of fallen man to lack the ability to understand what God has revealed about Himself in the Bible, let alone the mystery that He has yet to reveal.

    The only hope remains; Jesus said:

    "You must be born again".

    Once you have heeded His command, please return and discuss the matter if you will.

  5. So you mean you cant know which religion you believe in! your right, most people who are religious have just accepted the religion that was given to them as a child, and not even looked into any others!

    But i think each religion is supposed to be a different path to the same God thoguh!

    But I have been looking into how similar Islam and Christianity are to each other, its very interesting, they have a few pages of the koran about mary and Jesus...

    And islam also tells the story of Adam and Eve... there are lots more similarites too

  6. you will end up insane trying to understand....just take it easy

  7. Actually, it can be narrowed down.

    But to understand a belief one would have to get inside someone's head and there is not much room inside there for another person. (The Neo-Atheist actually are trying to do this. Good luck, my friends.)

    So where does one start?

    I can only say that Jesus explained about the nature of God (Read Mt. in the NT).

    Hope this helps.


  8. i can grantee to you that understanding islam doesnt take more that 2 minutes

  9. No, but you can sure spend a lifetime studying them.

  10. An orthodox religion takes the practitioner into higher realm.  Therefore, one should stay away from cult religions.  

    There are some criteria to consider.  

    1) It is also best to take up the root lineage of a religion.  For example, one can study the lineage of the Buddhist belief and try to find and study closest to the root.  

    2) availability of the scripture

    3) access to the practitioners to assess their spiritual behaviors and attitude

    Not part of Buddhism, Falun Gong is a unique Buddhist School, teaching an ancient practice for the body, mind, and spirit based upon the universal principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Tolerance. Falun Gong consists of five sets of powerful exercises.

    Falun Gong, Tibetans, other Buddhists, and Christians have been persecuted in China. The most offensive human right violation is the organ harvesting from the Falun Gong practitioners in China.

    Can you kindly sign a petition to stop persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China, please ?
