Why cant we all just get along!? :'(
Because reveaked religion says we shouldn't unless we're all the same right religion.
It is fun and good learning when you have conversations about religion, but in the end, their is no point.
I know right! I was trying to teach people the specific realms of re-incarnation of buddhism along with the three fires and yama and other stuff, but did anyone listen? Nooooo all they wanna talk about is that guy who married his half sister.... ermm Abraham! Thats the one, they just wanna talk about Abrahamic religion.
And I don't know why they're using 'not all christians are like that' argument when we've already spoke upon the fact 'these' christians are going against their own teachings Its not people I'm against its their beliefs. I've already talked about 'Christians' who don't do that or don't hold everything to be true in the bible as an oxymoron, but people keep bringing this back and making the argument go in circles.
Which is what Abrahamic religious discussions are, going in circles. As the 'good' people of the faith refuse to listen to the idea of realizing they are in this belief system for the good parts but ignore the bad parts, as I always say cut the middleman out and bin the holy scripture altogether and just join a different religion one that doesn't encompass ignorance, hatred or fear as a means to dictate itself or others.
Whats so difficult about realizing these three religions are more evil than good and that it would be easier to just adopt a simpler newer belief system that is more humanistic. You don't need the dogma you don't even need karma you just need to realize you can't be seen by everyone as a good person when you follow a system that is the cause of the majority of war in our history.
What buddhist ever gassed jews? What Agnostic ever burned a witch? What atheist ever persecuted somebody for translating a book? What hindu ever tortured a confession out of someone? Seriously people need to let these bronze age desert religions go and find a belief system that doesn't carry hate in its pouch. I understand when people are these religions because they don't know anything about it but when you do know about it, staying in the religion makes you look like nothing short of a madman.
I'm not trying to insult, these things genuinely make me wonder and fill me with sorrow;Why can't they let go of the religion of hate & hypocrisy and take in a new one that doesn't contain any messages of war, sexism, bigotry etc.
The only rule you need to get by in life is the golden rule and yes Christ mentioned it but as previously stated he also said the old testament is valid, so look at other religions that mention the golden rule they do not threaten you, do not command you, they guide you.
