I have a few questions on Religion.
I'm a Christian, but not a die hard Christian. I'm questioning Religion.

Okay so if we believe in Flying people called Angels, why can't we believe in other Divine beings on other Religions too? If we think we're going to a place called Heaven and believe all of that Christianity stuff, why can't we accept other people's religion including our own? I mean, I hate the fact that we would call someone else's religion stupid when out religion is kind of ridiculous itself. Flying angels? A God that made every person? I mean I believe some of it, but it just sounds too ridiculous if you compare it to other religions too. I think that's why some people are Atheists.

I'm not trying to go non-believer, but i'm wondering how are you going to call someone else's religion stupid when ours sounds pretty unrealistic.

EDIT: I'm only thinking of it like this because I'm thinking on why would you insult other people's religion when ours is the same thing? We all believe in Gods that are Divine and Almighty, why insult somebody else's?​

Can a Mod please close this Thread?

True. Most of the popular religions- the abrahamic ones, all seem so loose. Although, maybe that is how the god judges us. All religion is based on is faith. But the judgement of other religions and saying one is better is just wrong. If you think about it, would the rules of religion even apply to our age? These principles were made centuries ago. Surely religion cannot control all things. But that is judgement against religion so i'll stop.

With your statements, you dont know the first thing about Christianity at all. And you call yourself a Christian. Its one thing to be baptized as one and another to know a thing or two.

i don't see this thread ending well

Religion seems ridiculous when you look at it from a scientific pint o' view. I could go in depth about my thoughts, but I'll avoid it for now.

But I believe the calling other religions stupid comes from the fact that people believe their own religion is true and that others' religions are diviations.

alright, tell me more
i'm just saying some people don't believe in other people's belief
while we believe in Flying Angles that come out of dead bodies

I'm a Christian too, and I've thought the same thing time and time again, and honestly I've just learned to openly accept all religions, and sometimes I even borrow freely from them. My Aunt is a Hari Krishna and she once told me "When Krishna likes you, he gives you a big house and a nice car, but when Krishna loves you, he takes everything away" (this basically means there is nothing to distract you from your relationship with him). And I always thought that was a good philosophy, and I've found ways to apply it to my own religious life, even though I am a Christian. I have friends who are atheists, friends who are agnostic, friends from all different denominations of Christianity and Catholicism---and I honestly can't tell you what makes my faith right and theirs wrong, which is why, like I said, I always keep an open mind. At the end of the day, if you are a nice, caring, kind and generous person, I'm sure you'll go to heaven, no matter whose heaven it is.

Can this just for once, actually be a naruto site instead of bringing up religion?

so... doesn't that mean we can talk about other stuff?

Who ever said "flying angels" came out of dead bodies? See, you're even stating untrue statements right there. How can I have a good debate with you when you can't even get your facts straight? BUUUUUUUUUUURN.

that's exactly what i'm saying
if you can believe in your own religion, accept everyone else's religion even though you don't practice it

 

[foxyladyland]

whats wrong kiddo, are you having a bad time right now???

 

[kral]

Love your enemies. For even the pagans love their friends.
Simple and to the point.
Don't judge what others believe but love them for who they are.
Simple Christian principle.

nope i just have no time to be arguing with people who act like that
...and if you wanna start something you're welcome to leave my thread

 

[Yuffosan]

But whatever dude. You know what, it doesn't matter what kind of Religion you have or if you have one or not. What matters is that you form a good conscience, do what is right and in the end, you will be rewarded. I am a Christian and I have been educated well in it but that doesn't mean I'm a goody-goody person. I prolly have the same problems as every teenager like pornography or whatever but that doesn't mean it makes me any less of a Christian. I believe that if I just do what God told me (which is to be good, love your neighbors, and love God above all which just really means be thankful for everything and stuff) then you will be rewarded when you die. Simple. Personally, the reason why I think people keep questioning Religion is because they are using it as a scapegoat to get away with the bad things they do, so yeah.

*bow*

Notice this isn't in Naruto discussion. You're not going to stop threads like these.

Yup. I think it's better to just be tolerant about every religion. It doesn't matter though, cause I'm going to hell in every religion.

You know what kid, I've never heard of a PROPER Christian condemn someone because they have a different Religion so I really don't what's the problem here.
