By idolatry are you referring to Jesus himself or the statues made of him, Mary, the saints, angels, etc?
Because nowadays unless someone is a poor idiot, nobody really worships the statue itself, but the divine being it represents. I amuse myself with the idea that someone would go to a...
Well "salvation" can be interpreted in many ways.
No, he's not our shepherd, that's why I replaced "shepherd" with "guide".
Should I have mentioned Nastrond instead?
Anyway, still not an expert in Norse culture and I'm open to suggestions of course; it could be just left with "valley of the...
After many paths and spiritual experiencies I recently came back to Ásatrú and I thought again of adapting psalms, what do you guys think? It's a little surprising to me that they end up very good just by replacing a few words. Maybe some words like "Lord" aren't even necessary to replace...
The only reason why you believe in the End Times is because you think you're going to be saved. Otherwise you'd be scared as "hell" and probably would have even switched to another religion.
BTW, it's also sad when they make people wait eternally for the Second Coming, instead of getting up to...
I know you aren't allowed to put idols on an altar; only maybe symbols as the menorah. But not because you worship the menorah of course.
Lately I've noticed that after I try other paths; some Christianity, some Paganism, Buddhism, it doesn't matter, I always end up with the Tao; which I...
OK what's the use discussing with communists who want to impose a New World Order like a North Korean dictatorship, worldwide? Maybe your body chose to be a masked government slave? Not my choice, pal.
Oh really? Who's controlling those figures I read on the newspapers everyday?
Mind you...
No they don't. That's discrimination. That's indirectly obliging people to take the vaccine. Especially if they're essential businesses and institutions.
Imagine if you couldn't enter a supermarket unless you show a certificate you've had your appendix removed. I know a vaccine is not an...
Adults "must" vaccinate? What happened with "I do with my body what I want?" What happened to the right of having to give your informed consent for every medical procedure someone might want to apply to you?
Denmark becomes 1st European nation to completely shun AstraZeneca COVID vaccine
If I...
Here in Argentina they've made it easy: The Government party members and their friends first, the rest of the population will get vaccinated someday, maybe in a few years!
Anyway I'd rather prefer to avoid the vaccine, since I don't like experiments with Human beings (Mengele would be proud of...
I remember I've read somewhere that the Qu'ran did change. The original says for example that martyrs will meet 72 raisins instead of 72 virgins in Paradise. The German scholar who discovered this is now in hiding, because his life is in danger after that.
Or maybe the attitude of seeing God as a cosmic king that shouldn't drench his "hands" with blood; He shouldn't lower Himself do the dirty work, so the believer does it for Him.
But what would be the difference with "The Devil made me do it"?
I think those suras (and many "stone him for...
