superior being does not render evil for evil; this is a maxim one should observe; the ornament of virtuous persons is their conduct. One should never harm the wicked or the good or even criminals meriting death. A noble soul will ever exercise compassion even towards those who enjoy injuring others or those of cruel deeds when they are actually committing them--for who is without fault?
17.Hinduism. Ramayana, Yuddha Kanda 115
Close but no cigar. What you have quoted says what NOT TO DO. The statements are negative. Love you enemy and pray for them is positive. It tells us what to do.
Not to be rude but at this moment I have to assume you have no concept of what any religion teaches outside of Christianity.
Guilty. Sometimes the truth is rude, but necessary. IMO, it is foolish to study false religions. I know enough about them that Christianity teaches they are false religions. Especially those with more than one God.
Your religion isn't special. It shares characteristics of many others and again, nothing you mentioned is impossible to come up with. It is actually so easy, its been done way before Christianity.
Christianity is special and unique. All religions have some similar concepts, it is the differences that makes Christianity special and unique. Most religions teach to find favor with God, one must be good. Christianity doe snot teach that. You have yet to show where any teaches to gain you lie you must lose it, to be strong, you must become weak, etc.
You don't really know when Hinduism was first started.
Also note how you talk about the trinity, as if its true by default for being unique, and then call other religions "myths", quite hypocritical.
I have never said the Trinity is true by default, I said I accept the doctrine and show in the Bibl , that it is taught. The doctrine of the Trinity is one of the thins that make Christianity unique. No other religion has that doctrine.
I don't think you are interested in anything outside of your own christian construct.
That's right. Why should I study a religion I reject as being from God?
To finish, your still using logic to say something unique makes it true by default. The Flying Spaghetti Monster is unique, that doesn't make it true by default because he isnt in other religions. How do you even mentally come to that conclusion I would love to know.
Now you are just being silly. Do you have any evidence that Christianity is not the only true one, or that just you default position?
If you don't happen to own any books outside of the Bible, which im assuming is the case, here is a solid list of scriptures from other religions saying to love your enemy :
World Scripture - LOVE YOUR ENEMY
I consider buy books about false religions a waste of money and studying them is a waste of time.
Not one of them said "love you enemy and pray for those who mistreat you, not one one of them even said "love your enemy. Human thinking does not think that way. Thanks for making my point.
