Caste system is NOT related to hinduism and has never been. Where you got that idea from?Originally posted by laoda99:If I am not wrong, the caste system comes from and is related to hinduism.
You know jolly well why Jerusalem has suicide bombers and killings....
I thought jerusalem is suppose to be a holy land? -
Carefully thread on this...it'll invite other questions in the near future.Originally posted by laoda99:I would say this quote means god's sovereignty.....if he so wants, he can make things happen....

So my question is Why 1 god so many different views on it? Why is it different denominations preach to me different things? Why is it they condemn each other?Originally posted by laoda99:Dun have to be sarcastic....u know very well that sectarian rifes are present in every "religion" u come across....
Just as u are "spokesman" for your ramayana mahabarata......a Christian is a spokesman for GOD....
I am not a spokesman for anything. I have never claim to be a spokesman for anything either. Its you who claim to be a spokesman for God. -
Not arrogant....it is THE truth!Originally posted by shade343:You are arrogant to think that there is only 1 God which you may find healing and hope. The other gods bestow that also. Thats the problem with christians. They are arrogant. They think theirs is the only one. I wonder what makes them think so? It is through Jesus christ that mankind has learned how to be good an do good.
That is the mission for most Gods who come down to this world and preach. They have always advocated doing good and being good.
Did jesus christ advocated going around telling people that christianity is the one and only religion and the one and only way to reach god??
And Jesus christ paid for our sins. Doest this shows the exisistence of karma? If he hadnt die for us, perhaps we would be suffering even more badly.
Can I say u are arrogant too if u insist to believe in many false gods?
Christ tells us he is THE way/truth/life. Christians follow this truth....not some who turn Christ into a demigod or one of the gods....
Christ paid for our sins greatly; we should only believe in him and not false gods. -
Note that all denominations which adhere to the bible believe that Christ is THE WAY.....not 'A WAY'...Originally posted by shade343:So my question is Why 1 god so many different views on it? Why is it different denominations preach to me different things? Why is it they condemn each other?
I am not a spokesman for anything. I have never claim to be a spokesman for anything either. Its you who claim to be a spokesman for God.
Why does different factions of other religions condemn each other? Becoz we are man.....
Yes Christians are spokesman for God. And I will speak up to rebuke if necessary. -

Then you play them on their own game, at their turf. Now the turf is the Bible, not other scriptures.Originally posted by shade343:They keep on quoting the bible for every damn thing. How about the other religious scriptures? Are they not valid also?
What they quote is only the English Bible. Now clearly the Greek version didn't state homosexuality. The word used, if I remember correctly, is more encompassing than homosexuality.
At least you argue till a draw this way.

Jerusalem is the third holiest land in Islam after Mecca and Medina.Originally posted by shade343:I thought jerusalem is suppose to be a holy land?

This is sheer bigotry and full of arrogance. You even scold people's ancestor??Originally posted by purplecrazed:Transexuality is a genetic disorder and is a curse as a result of one's ancestor's sin or many sins. Someone up in the family tree must have done something so detestable in God's sight to have passed down such abnormalities in his/her genes to the generations down the line. Maybe the ancestors practised incest, or had sex with an animal or practised high level of witchcraft.. or was a Satan-worshipper, or was a serial killer or anything that was simply too evil to even mention. But that doesn't mean that the child born with double gender is beyond hope.
I hope this is your personal opinion and you say this not in your capacity as a spokesman of God. -

The discussion is not "friendly" to begin with. Both sides want to triumph using their reasoning, their own version of truth.Originally posted by laoda99:This is not a game ICEMOON
If there is winning and losing, I consider it a game. Ya know, economics also talk about game theory and all the crap.
Of course .. game rules prevail. I hope both sides display good sportsmanship. -

Start talking nonsense and bringing ancestors into the picture. -

Thank you for reminding us of this oldest religion. Really appreciate it, shade!
[b]This great, old religion of Hinduism which is supposed to be full of wisdom as contained in their mahabharata scriptures... causes India to be among the poorest nation in the world even till this day! The country is always hit by famine, the people are sick (with high number of AIDS), the children die of malnutrition, the women are oppressed, the social gap between the poor and the rich are far too wide -> the rich does not contribute to the nation's progress but only for themselves while the poor suffers for what they believe is karma. If the doctrine of karma is correct, then it's no surprise that the whole of India is suffering for their own sins. Hinduism taught them correctly indeed.

where got social unrest?Originally posted by oxford mushroom:Making statements against a racial or religious group so as to stir social unrest is an offence under the Sedition Act. Forwarding your post to the relevant authorities...
The Hindus in Singapore are entitled to the nation's success as well. -
Aiyoh, retract that statement please.
And those who wish to tread on 'everything can be all correct at the same time'...why bother coming into this forum in the first place? Your truth is relative. So let everything be correct if it makes you feel happy.

Shade: Did jesus christ advocated going around telling people that christianity is the one and only religion and the one and only way to reach god??
Erm...actually he did.
And Jesus christ paid for our sins. Doest this shows the exisistence of karma? If he hadnt die for us, perhaps we would be suffering even more badly.
I see no link to karma leh. Sin is not equivalent to suffering. And are you sure by Christ's death the world suffered less? ie People before ~30 AD suffer more than people after ~30AD? Don't think so.
