    There is no such thing as "soft polytheism"

    "The Hammer said: If said Unifying force that the Gods emanate from has no consciousness and will of its own, but is just a force of nature, it's not a God. Imo. Which is how I view the unity that the Gods come from." The view quoted above view seems to say the universal impersonal God has no...

    There is no such thing as "soft polytheism"

    I am a polytheist. I believe there a universal impersonal God - an overarching force or a being that pervades the whole universe (but also exists outside the universe) that created and still supervises the entire universe. I also believe there are millions of personal Gods that manage and...

    Reason why the truth wasn’t written.

    I don't think that is the truth. I don't believe that all of existence will restart whatever happens to the chosen one. Where exactly did you hear that?

    Concerned About Sharia

    Not really. However, I do have concerns about fundamentalist Christian laws being implemented in parts of the country. For instance: Louisiana Legislature approves bill to classify abortion pills as controlled dangerous substances

    If you believe in reincarnation...

    I understand that there are around 60 billion Earth human souls already created out of which 7 billion are in incarnation. For the time being no more human souls are being added except in rare cases (these are usually when an animal like a dog or cat becomes advanced enough to have their soul...

    What do you think of Paul the Apostle?

    Paul on women: "Women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says. If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church I Cor 14.34-35 "A...

    new age beliefs thats wrong

    You are quite right. Very few people go directly to heaven. Almost everyone goes first to purgatory and spend time there for purification and then onward to heaven. However, the time in heaven is not permanent. After a period in heaven, they reincarnate on Earth. But those new-age books are...

    Do God really care about which religion people follow?

    This is true. The Gods don't care at all which religion you follow. However, having a good heart is not enough - taking action is equally important, like helping others, making sure justice is served etc.

    Where is Heaven? Where is Svargaloka?

    There are 14 planes of existence - 7 upper planes and 7 lower planes. Below are the upper planes (called lokas in Sanskrit): Satya Tapas Jana Maha Swarga (Lower heaven) Bhuva (Astral plane) Bhur (Earth) These are planes or states of consciousness, so they have no location in space. They...

    Pro-Palestinian Peaceful Protests

    Istria was made part of Yugoslavia after WWII, so it makes sense that Croatia has it now.

    Pro-Palestinian Peaceful Protests

    That way, some powerful country (like Russia or China for instance) could take someone's territory and hold it for 80 years. After that is it theirs? I think any injustices done post WWII need to be redressed or mitigated in some way (that date being when the UN was established).

    Was there ever even the slightest chance of failure?

    Jesus came with a message. The point of his life and sacrifice was to get the message across. The message of loving your enemies, of caring for 'the least of these', of turning the other cheek. I think he managed to convey this message successfully. BTW, even though the success of his mission...

    When does life begin?

    Thanks. I will block you, so that my 'off-topic' posts won't bother you anymore. Best wishes.

    When does life begin?

    It is not off-topic at all. I believe human life starts when the soul enters the fetus. 'When does life start' is exactly the topic of this thread.
