you can say that again. but some of their preachings, like eternal hell to non believers and heaven to those who accept Jesus, smacked of biases. some more you shouldnt say other religions are satanic or devil. if that is the attitude, then I would rather give it a miss. If you read the history of christianity, a lot of wars are waged. whats the point of having religion if go to war over this.

since we do not know the reason for it, all the more we should not attribute the reason to blind beliefs

so? seems to mi that you are not respecting other ppl's beliefs too.
not respecting other beliefs????
dun be brainwashed on what is respecting and what is not respecting...
we cannot even debate on the issue of whether your religion is correct, logical or sensible???
are we that coward and scared that we cannot even DEBATE?????
do we want to be brainwashed people who only accepts the status quo and live with suppressed soicety??
Why are some people so afraid of debating about religion.. are they so closed minded and so afraid they cannot withstand the strength of reason???
Its not about inciting racial, religious riots... its about logic debating.. that is what it is all about in our edcuation whether it is english, maths or science....

but it's ok it's no point debating or anything. because once you dun believe, everything else said, a person will treat it as rubbish
so are you going to stop debating for the rest of your life because whatever you are going to say to persuade your colleague/boss/leaders/children/friends
because once they dun believe.. everything else said, the person will treat it as rubbish...
well.. there are people who turned from christian to atheist, atheist to christian and all the other religions through and fro...
there is false to say that
"there is no point in debating"
because some people do change their beliefs...
i was a taoist by default.. but is mainly a freethinker who only understands atheism in 18-19 yr old

It blows my mind away with its concept of human sufferings comes from its greediness, and lack of knowledge and it inability to perceive things well enough...
I totally agree with it so much that I had a crush on Buddhism for a while... i dun remember why i did not continue studying buddhism....
Buddhism is not correct , to me, in totally... but buddhism has some useful advices which are really correct and we can learn those...
