What Will Be The Difference In Our Lives If We Dont Believe In God?

Rome said Latin only

Wow! Those who dared to translate the bible so that the common man can read it are burned at maimed by the Church... It took the Church centuries to accept that it can be translated.

Sayang wala si OB and his thoughts on middle earth and religion...=P

Everyone here were introduced to religion via schooling/brainwash at an early age. If given a choice, would you want your offspring to find religion by themselves or forcefeed them like yourselves?

AFAIK all religion basically spouse the same thing; Love and Respect. Nasa tao na lang talaga kaya IMO iba na rin yung may experience sa religion subject.

Nasa tao na lang yan kung magiging mabuti o hindi.

Ancient Scripts: Sumerian




so how old is Sumerian mythology?

and how old is Christianity?

Mesopotamian religion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Just a food for thought din, "and over the next 300 years the native religion largely died out"

Bakit kaya? hmmm

Love and Respect eh? Then your knowledge is very Limited.

In the Bible, God says it is fine to Sell your Daughter as a *** SLAVE:

"When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again." Exodus 21:7.

Is is fine to TORTURE those who serve you, as long as they don't DIE:

"When a man strikes his male or female slave with a rod so hard that the slave dies under his hand, he shall be punished. If, however, the slave survives for a day or two, he is not to be punished, since the slave is his own property." Exodus 21:20

In the Koran, God says it is your duty to AMBUSH and KILL non-believers of Allah, so the 9/11 Terrorists were just doing their Duty:

"Kill those who join other gods wherever you find them, and seize them, beleaguer them and lie in wait for them with every kind of ambush." Sura 9:5

The more you read the "Holy Books", the more you understand why the world is what it is today.

what's to wonder about?

Christian Roman emperors (like Constantine) forced pagans to convert. that's why there are many pagan beliefs, traditions and holidays integrated into Christianity... made it easier for pagans to accept Christianity

google the origin of Dec 25 Christmas day

Ever wonder why the devil is depicted as having horns? They got it from Pagans as well. When Christianity spread its tentacles across Europe, they eventually encountered the Celts. The Celts worshipped a nature deity called Cernunnos...the horned God. Nature deity. Preserve nature. Aba masama yan! Dapat Diyos ang i-worship at hindi ang kalikasan! That's the devil! THE DEVIL I TELL YOU!

If indeed Sumeria exist or just a myth...

Sumeria isnt like Atlantis. Sumeria isnt a myth. like ancient Egypt isnt a myth

it's part of world history

[Ry_Tower]

True, that is because in order to spread christianity during that time, writers/scholars of the church need to present it a a manner more susceptible to the views of the people where they are going to teach it.

Repost ko lang at mali ata dating nug isang post ko. I do said that christianity borrowed pagan views including the origin of xmas celebration.

I wish i could remember where I read that basically all religion spouse the same thing (basic and most important). Alas my memory can't recall... I'm limited afterall unlike the movie Limitless!

You can't take the bible word for word. As I posted earlier, its better to talk to a theologian, someone who studied the origin of those words and what they actually mean. AFAIK, its like poetry, may hidden meanings, irony etc. Moreover, it should be understood in light and in line with the changing times. Anyway, basta hindi puwede word for word ang pag-intindi dyan which I admit even some priest are susceptible to do.

And yes, my knowledge of world religion is limited. Who isn't? Sorry ha kung noob me dyan. All I know was from school, hindi ko naman masters yan or doctorate. hehe, I'm happy with what I believe.
