the hindos are pretty chillaxed also. but they all end up involved in a war sooner or later. Believe in your own god is what i say. Mine looks like Kate Blanchett and has a great rack.

buddhism is not a religion. is a way of living. is not a religion since buddha doesnt recognize:
-god
-himself as an idol or god.2. christianity is not a tolerant religion. just read the bible.

:P

I have, it seems pretty tolerant as a collection of principles. Just how people interpret it , I guess.
- unknown0
yes is the way of interpretating the bible, but some parts in it has no possible interpretation, they are just obvious. like in the old testament, the whole stuff with sionismus. etc. etc.....
- unknown0
depends what version you read...

I wouldn't expect a report no, but I would expect you to understand the definition of 'religion' and I would be curious to know whether you have actually read the bible.

I think most religions start out with good intentions, but when they get mixed with politics they all suffer the same fate.
That site is prime example of a branch that is all politics and no spirituality. Moralisers are usually the worst hypocrits of all.

i was going to church everysunday for more than 10 years. along the church i was studying bible. in a private course and in a normal school. i think i know what i am talking about.
buddha said one time that he didnt believe in salvation and this stuff. and he told the people about his discipline just as a way of understanding life. no adoration, no rites, no ascension.
and yes, i have as well read about buddhism

so what happened? Did you go out of choice or was it more of a parents thing?
You seem pretty anti now.

doesn't christianity base itse;f on the new testament though, ie after Christ's birth??
Always bothers me when I hear the old "tooth for a tooth" doctrine...

actually it wasnt a parents thing, i really believed in that. it was a question of madurate, and investigation....
going to lunch!

When I was a kid the reason I hated church (or any authority figure for that matter) was that I didn't like being told what to think, and I didn't like being told what to believe...
I go to church from time to time these days...when I am feeling down, or to pray for those close whom I have loved and lost...it jsut seems to most natural place to do it...I believe in a power...an energy...a 'god' if you will..that governs the world - but I don't think it is a particularly fair or just one.

yeah I have always had a problem with authorities, doctrines, establishments, organised religions etc as well.
Same as anyone who thinks for themselves and refuses to accept without question any given 'fact'.
- unknown0
doesn't mean that I'm soulless though, I am spiritual and I do believe in something, I'm just not sure what exactly.
But I certainly wouldn't accept a religion that has been carved and rewritten over the centuries to suit the will of the elite, and to strike fear into the people as a means of control. And lets not get started on the violence.

i played on a chistian open air with my band this weekend (long story ; ) and met some cool streetworkers.
draggin' gods name into such a dirt makes me very sad, 'cause god (when he exists) loves anybody. it's all about tolerance!
