Who's right?
I was studying this today and got interested in it but I'm just wondering, whose land is it? Who do Christians "support" the most? Does the Bible have any relation to the Muslim or Jewish "Book"? (Sorry, forgot their names). |

QUOTE(-DressYourEyelids- @ Jul 8 2009, 08:18 AM)  this was nor am i going to view my religion as superior. In this sentence you imply that you believe in a religion. If you believe in a religion then there is a "right" answer. Your own. If you believe your religion is not superior, is "wrong", and is man made then why do you practice it at all? Just food for thought. Anyway, I'm a Christian. I believe my religion is "right". Why? For various reasons, but ultimately because I believe in it. I don't try and convince people to become a christian. Religion isn't a product and doesn't need to be sold. It's something that people need to discover on their own. |

That's incredibly stupid. Why follow something that you claim to know is not the absolute truth? You're basically saying you're living a lie. You are an adherent out of convenience, not because you believe. |

I don't believe that you're pompous, naive, or closed minded when you believe that one religion is better than another. I don't mind individuals who practice other religions. As Christians we're to love everyone regardless of their religion. If your religion states that worshiping another God is a "one way ticket to damnation" then so be it. That doesn't mean I'm going to shove Christianity down their throat. I'm going to love them during their time spent on earth. Religion is not about convenience. It is about faith. In order to truly follow a religion you need to have faith and believe in its teachings. Practicing a religion is utterly pointless if you don't believe in it. Why do anything that you don't believe in? I have to agree with kyro on this. You can only be so open-minded before you become a boring idiot who just aims to please in order to avoid conflict. Having beliefs does not make you close minded. It makes you an individual. Just don't be a dick about it. |
