maybe we smell another sarcastic joke :wink:

Pray, tell us which religion is this?

To each of us the 'true' religion is different. To me it means Islam..... to another something else.

pointless thread I must say....

A religion open for everyone, not restricted to a particular cultural group, i.e. Christianity - Europe (largely), Islam - Arab World (largely), Hinduism - India (largely), Buddhism - East Asia (largely).

These are too tribal.

Interesting point but don't agree on yours (largely)

Would you mind, ragazza bellissima, if I ask you a question?

Ummm ragazza bellissima the start is good foxy man :p , am afraid of the end, but am old enough to listen so shoot your q :tiered:

Do you like blue sky, trees, rivers and green fields?

Prefer sea but yes i love nature in general.

I love the sea too, but a lot of people are afraid of it. I believe God = Nature.

The nature is created by God.

Next question.

That was not a question, TeaTime, it was a statement of fact based on empirical evidence.

Have you too seen the light?

Even my statment is a fact and overcomes your fact.

I'm already following the true religion light. How about you still searching?

Well i'd say this is a tribal and ancient concept, affascinante e misterioso pensatore :wink:

Amo, no one has actually ever come up with a better equation. TeaLeaf, you wouldn´t know a fact if it jumped up and bit your nose. I am not searching for anything. Except Eldorado.

Shak, it comes a moment in a person's life in which you feel the lack of something and you go and search for it; depending on the person age , on the environment and on what he/she is going through, well what you find can be a singer as hero, a philosophy, a change, can be anything.
But the last and true occasion in which you feel this need is turning serious, then being a fan of Madonna is not enough anymore: you need a strong standing point in your life; some years ago i was fascinated from american natives history, from their traditions, their God Wakantanka, anything amazed me but then maybe i grew up and understood it was just a crush on a different civilisation. I love nature, i love going to the sea when no one there and my mind start flying, i feel the freedom from all limitations of this crazy world, also thank God for creating such a marvelous place, but sea itself is not the answer to my life needs. Its creator is: God is my life firm point and in Islam i found my answers, and i'll be happy for you when you find your Eldorado.

Amo, I had enough religion in my childhood to last me several eternities. I don´t need it any more.

I am also considering being buried at sea in a burning Viking longship. I shall recycle myself and be environmentally friendly.

God doesn't need Religion; people do.

therefore, no religion is "wrong". But people who use religion as an excuse to kill each other ARE.

I'm with Shakoosh. The simplicity of "god is" is the purest form of religion there is; the rest is just lace and finery (or whips and chains) added by people (often for darker purposes than spiritual illumination).

Had a friend who used to say: only idiots never change their opinion and remain stubborn on their position.
The little i know you in this forum, am sure you are not an idiot :)

SK: do you think that nature has any purpose, or that nature is itself the purpose?

if the latter, why live? and why not steal from and kill others? it's what the animals do, and that's "natural," right?!

Nature is of itself inherently good, yet animal predators kill and eat others in their evolutionary struggle to reach the top of the food chain. We may find that distasteful, but it is natural for those animals involved. We humans are at the top of the food chain.

Shak..
Dont get me into this..I aint your God mate..
now get away from me!

Forgive me but I must disagree. There is NO evolutionary imperative to "reach the top of the food chain". Only to survive.

Most of the extant species have been quite successful as prey - for instance, rabbits (and most insect and many fish, amphibian, and reptile species) produce large numbers of offspring. Most are eaten, but it only takes 2 survivors to hold a population steady.
Rabbits are not depressed because they have not become predators :p

We humans are at the top of the food chain.

The evidence is beginning to show that this is a recent development; the presence of human bones among piles of other species is evidently as someone else's prey. And, I wager that 99% of the current human population would become "prey" rather quickly if lost in the jungle without an AK47 and a Bic lighter... :angel:

There may be no imperative, but survival in a dietary penthouse cannot be topped.

I don't see any basis for morality and law and order according to such a belief. The survival of the fittest means: if you can get away with it, the consequences to others are irrelevant. On the contrary--your success depends on the failure of others.

In this sense, I don't see much difference petween this pantheism and pure atheism.

Perhaps it depends whether one defines "you" as singular or plural. Define "you" as your tribe or nation or religion.

When competing for the same scarce resources, your success DOES depend on others to fail at out competing you.
