I don't think "the Good book" is meant to taken literally, whether your Catholic, Protestant, Buddha or any religion. It was just a way to explain life and instill a set of morals to races who hadn't got the education or scientific knowledge that we have now. The problem's now associated with persecution in many countries can be attributed to a stringent and dogmatic interpretation of whatever "Good Book" is the doctrine, in that country. Science now expends engeries in disproving events in the bible, and then concludes religion is phish.

Then you have radical beleivers groups advocating blind belief in a book which doesn't at times make sense.....

I think I'll follow the belief's of the Navajo, makes sense to me.......

Buddhists don't believe in a deity and Buddhism isn't a religion.

What's your point.....

You said Buddhism was a religion when it isn't that's my point.

I used Buddha in the context of "good book" i.e. following a set of scripture's, morals that were written down.......but go ahead nitpick, I don't care.....but just to cause a ruckus?? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhism#/search

Is anyone else clued up on how nearly all religions are linked to solar or astrological events ?

 

That's how I believe religions started, back when poor weather meant no food so you start to "hope" for good weather. Eventually that turns into worshipping the Sun, which leads on to good and bad/day and night etc.

 

Give this a quick read

There's plenty more to look up too, imo this is the most logical explanation.

One word Evolution

I've always been sat on the fence and still am really. I would never say there is definitely no higher being or "something" else. I know what science says but nobody really knows.

 

Just look at everything we've got on earth, some of the truly amazing things. Everything science has to offer, air crafts, some of the computer technology out there, medicine, chemicals, you name it. I find it hard to believe that it all just came about due to monkeys evolving over time.

 

Someone somewhere gave us a helping hand I think.

 

Ghosts are another topic, completely different to religion I know. But how one man can call another a liar because he hasn't experienced something is beyond me. I believe that there are 100% ghosts or other beings in a different time or "something" out there, yet to those that have never had any experiences they call you mental.

 

Come spend a few nights in my parents farm house and watch the Doberman attack "nothing" in the corner at 3am and tell me it's nothing. Maybe the dog is mental. But that doesn't explain why the kitchen door slams shut and then the dog stops barking and growling. Or why you then hear foot steps coming up the stairs afterwards. I've hastily left that house more than once in the middle of the night and start asking myself if I'm mental and being daft, until my daughter asks who the old man is that's following us ?

Why's it always kids and dogs who see ghosts lol

Yes Gaz you're mental, because after the first time I would not be back in there lol. An old boy year's once told me trust your dogs instinct, well that there doberman is telling you " get the fcuk outa there"

[TOMO 26,021]

Ghosts are the same as big cats,,,,,,big cats are always black,,,,,,and ghosts are always seen at night.......

[walshie 2,804]

Gaz, I don't think anyone would call you a liar for seeing ghosts. I don't believe in them and I don't suppose i ever will unless I see one with my own eyes - and I doubt that very much. Bit different from calling someone a liar mind.

Bang on three bells is the time demons come out to play mate, an j children see them because the ( ghosts ) know that there easily manipulated.

 

From the bible's view gaz, an I have experienced this myself before I was saved, that ghosts, poltergeists, spirits etc are demons maasqurading as above, because there desperate for human interaction, God put there formally angels,now demons into another world ( dimension ) because they rebelled, an committed abomanation unto the lord we're there there to judgement day,stripped of there apparrel ( ugly scary b*****ds lol ) knowing they haven't much time left there desperate to scare manipulate an sometimes hurt people.

 

See that's there an devil goal to try an lead people away from God, because they can't hurt God, there trying the next best thing, is human's, cause we're created in his image, so they want to destroy an kill as many as possible.

 

The best trick the devil is pulling is he convinces people that he not real.

Many people worshipped the stars mate, that doesn't mean that God doesn't exist.

 

But people that worship the one true God of the bible, back then an now, know better not to worship created things, just the creator, it's called idolatary.

I reccon if Dynamo had been about donkeys yrs ago he would have treated as a god, my take on the term god is simply someone seen by others as having logic defying abilities, they would be classed as '' entertainers '' in modern day terms

Would that he the devil that existed thousands of years before any of the Abrahamic religions? the Devil was a Zoroastrianism creation believed to have evolved from Indus valley religions face it you believe something that was plagerised FLMAO

Its strange how all ghosts are people.

Ive never heard someone saying ive just seen a sheep ghost or a cow ghost.

And all the rabbits weve dispatched over the yrs.

No one comes back from lamping saying they seen a rabbit ghost.
