    It Couldn't Just Happen

    I think as long as the Bible does not say "then on the third day God said to the single-cell organism "evolve thyself into multi-cell organism" and it was good." Those who believe in the inerrancy of the Bible will continue to refute anything that does not say "There's no evolution. God created...

    Is a Good Man deemed not Good because his faith is diffrent?

    Reformationist, I respect your intend. But I have to say your methodology is not correct. By the way, using Christian theology to explain Buddhism "different views of salvation and the means by which to attain it" you are using a weighing machine to measure distance. If you are reading or have...

    Remember Buddha was before Jesus. Living in the Ganges Basin I am sure he has never heard of the Israelites too.

    Is a Good Man deemed not Good because his faith is diffrent?

    LOL, Reformationist you are misinformed. True Buddhism (the things that Buddha taught) has nothing to do with worship! No gods, nothing. He is a philosopher. Never claim to be deity or demanded to be treated as one.

    Is a Good Man deemed not Good because his faith is diffrent?

    You are so much closer to grace then you think. That's one of my turning points. I realized the "going to heaven" thing was why I believed. I bought into it because of "what's in it for me". Clarity came upon me. Heaven does not matter. I live in the here and now. All I know is God loves his...

    Is a Good Man deemed not Good because his faith is diffrent?

    Not really selfless. You have to have some self in everything otherwise there is no being. But yes, my point is to encourage thinking beyond heaven. Throw all humanistic desires out and see if you still will worship God. If there is not heaven, or rather, if God says to you today "you are not...

    Is a Good Man deemed not Good because his faith is diffrent?

    Eternal Mindset, I want to say thanks for the "fore" call. I have comtemplated what eternity would mean. The stick and carrot thing do not work for me. I have no concept of eternity because I do not live in eternity. I am bless to find myself in the current situation that I am in. Human and...

    Is a Good Man deemed not Good because his faith is diffrent?

    Thanks for the insight. Although I appreciate your thoughts, I do not think that the Revealation should be cannonized in the first place. I do not believe in transubstantiation. Lord's supper is, for me, more of reflection of my relationship with God. The pre-conceived notion you said is...
