Re: I am not asking you, I am telling you! Fantasy based
A fancy fan to see, Christianity, spinning tales of awakened gales as the soul rocks and the spirit sails.
"For some people religion is useful but for others, it is only a policeman"
~G. Gurdjieff
The Reason
The Mulla went to see a rich man.
'Give me some money.'
'Why?'
'I want to buy an elephant.'
'If you have no money, you can't afford to keep an elephant.'
'I came here', said Nasrudin, to get money, not advice.'
~The Pleasantries
of the Incredible

I was in a Buddhist temple not too long ago and it seems that those monks had not heard of this strange rule.iskander wrote:Buddhists monks cannot touch a woman , even an infant girl!

Then again, there are a variety of Buddhist sects. The one I attended was from Sri Lanka.

Many, if not most Protestants are literalists and idol worshipers.iskander wrote:Over here we would call them Protestants
Most of the Eastern wisdom religions do not have Gods let alone idols.
They seek wisdom and not some God.

Protestant was used to indicate they were contrary. It was a joke!
It does not matter to me if someone is an idol worshipper or not. I have met very nice Christians and very silly atheists such that in a fight I would fight on the side of idol worshippers.

I agree that Protestantism is more or less a joke as it was created just as a way to keep local cash local.

The Lutheran revolution was seen by many as 'a loud call for freedom' . It was the engine of our progress.Gnostic Bishop wrote:I agree that Protestantism is more or less a joke as it was created just as a way to keep local cash local.
