Re: Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism, Daoism, Shintoism, Christianity, Islam, Mormonism, Scientologism. Angel Barchild Send a noteboard - 02/11/2009 04:03:49 AM
I object to Buddism being on this list. As a phylosophy that teaches non-violence, persecution, death, and wars can not generally be laid at their feet. Also the Buddah is explained over and over as being only a man. Not some magical all seeing dude sitting in the clouds granting wishes if you ask harder than someone else.

pale blue colored iris, presents the circle
and puts the glory out to hide, hide.

I don't think most people think the Mormons or Jehovah's Witnesses are "mainstream". Tom - 02/11/2009 12:29:51 AM 455 Views
I agree. When I read that I thought "bullshit". Especially about the JW's. *NM* everynametaken - 02/11/2009 04:40:05 AM 170 Views
Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism, Daoism, Shintoism, Christianity, Islam, Mormonism, Scientologism. The Shrike - 02/11/2009 12:40:26 AM 483 Views
Yes, literalism and fundamentalism don't typically make a lot of sense. *NM* Ghavrel - 02/11/2009 01:34:48 AM 162 Views
I beg to differ. Scientology is more ridiculous than the other religions mentioned. Tom - 02/11/2009 01:58:44 AM 520 Views
To you, perhaps. To me it's a wonderful fantasy like the rest. No more or less believable. The Shrike - 02/11/2009 02:19:17 AM 461 Views
What sources do you have for that statement? Ghavrel - 02/11/2009 06:38:19 AM 436 Views
The point was about polytheism versus monotheism The Shrike - 02/11/2009 03:29:23 PM 403 Views
I take issue with your view of history Tom - 02/11/2009 04:25:24 PM 421 Views
The view of history is not monolithic. You are entitled to your views. The Shrike - 02/11/2009 04:36:45 PM 428 Views
Excellent post.....all religions are a little nutty, but Christianity was a natural extension to.... trzaska2000 - 02/11/2009 02:43:49 AM 419 Views

Right. Unlike Christianity, which has harming your neighbor as one of its central precepts. Ghavrel - 02/11/2009 06:34:16 AM 442 Views

Your spelling is simply atrocious. Are you a non-native English speaker/writer? The Shrike - 02/11/2009 03:23:25 PM 432 Views
+1 to your question and add "abysmal grammar and style" *NM* Tom - 02/11/2009 04:28:08 PM 172 Views
Taking pot shots is easy. Arguing a point is the hard part. *NM* Angel Barchild - 03/11/2009 02:29:34 AM 178 Views
Yes, you have problems with doing that effectively, too. *NM* Tom - 03/11/2009 01:51:05 PM 161 Views

I think that you are wrong. snoopcester - 02/11/2009 03:48:20 PM 441 Views
Define, supporting/promoting a war? The Shrike - 02/11/2009 04:12:46 PM 424 Views
Agreed, and even some 19th century wars had at least partial religious motivations. *NM* Legolas - 02/11/2009 05:38:22 PM 177 Views

You sound fiesty tonight! *NM* everynametaken - 02/11/2009 04:42:43 AM 169 Views
Uh? I thought what was testing Scientology was its crazy-ass beliefs..... *NM* trzaska2000 - 02/11/2009 02:38:07 AM 179 Views
