My humanistic ideals are accredited to my belief in Buddhism. However, I personally feel as though religion isn't a necessity to be a good person and for self actualization. But if someone is genuinely a better person thanks to religion without sacrificing an open mind, then whatever the religion is, I'm in full support.
I'm well aware of the inaccuracies of Christianity, but historical semantics cannot discredit spiritual fulfillment. Put into that perspective, religion as a whole, is false and its replacement should be scientific knowledge and common logic. |

You can't have a truly open mind and be religous because every religion has guidelines tat you must follow. |

QUOTE(vash1530 @ Dec 16 2005, 11:23 AM) You can't have a truly open mind and be religous because every religion has guidelines tat you must follow. That's not always the case. Take Buddhism, for example: it is easily integrated with many other religions. It's not exclusive. But I think all Brandon meant to say is that you can hold a belief, yet still understand and tolerate the beliefs of others. That's keeping an open mind. |
