    University study on religion

    Greetings my brothers and sisters, I have posted a message before explaining a brief study I am doing on individuals who are religious. I am very interested in religion and whereas most people in my class decided to do research on other things, I am the only one that decided to do a study on...

    Are the views of religious people important on societal issues?

    Thanks for completing the survey ReligiousAndProud and Caladan! The questions were mostly composed by my supervisor so I'm not offended but feedback is very good so that improvements can be made for the future so all feedback is welcomed and would be good actually :) That's a good point, and...

    Are the views of religious people important on societal issues?

    May peace be with you all. I've talked before in other threads about my love and enjoyment of religion. It is so great that I decided to do my final year university project on the views of individuals from Abrahamic religions on certain issues in society and how this issues should be dealt...

    Is it possible to believe in several religions at once?

    That's a good point about the theological and practical distinction. I guess the question would indeed be can it be made to be practical. For example, just as a person might listen to classical, jazz and rock music might it not be possible to have a person mix their religious practises (I know...

    Chinese folk religion - why it's not more popular?

    I hope this is the right place for this question otherwise it would be good if it would be moved to the right place. My question is about Chinese Folk religion. It has almost half a billion adherents yet it does not seem to be treated like a religion. For example, on surveys asking about...

    the right religion

    I actually recently started another post saying that one university professor (Mark W Muesse) has an interesting approach to religion where he sees himself as different percentages of different religions (e.g., 26% Muslim, 23% Jewish, 19% Christian, 17% Buddhist, 10% Sihk and 5% Jain). I...

    Pornography poll

    I think porn can be bad but I don't know if banning it will do more good than bad. The negative consequence of having to censure things we don't agree with, taking away the right of free speech in way, is more deleterious than stopping people from watching pornography. However, I do think the...

    should all history books be destroyed and forgotten?

    I also agree with Monk of Reason's comment: I would have no hobby without history!

    should all history books be destroyed and forgotten?

    This is a fair point. I remember reading that Heraclitus, due to his bias, talked about the Persians as if they were savages and brutes. This of course was due to his bias. The fact that history is so subjective and prone to bias suggests that maybe it is indeed not reliable. However, I don't...

    Life Came From Mars - Study Suggests

    I wonder if this is true. It would be amazing to hear that there is life on other planets. Meeting a Martian would be quite cool. Maybe in 10 or 20 years time they will know more about this, and will be able to prove their hypotheses with certainty. For now maybe we should be a bit sceptical.

    cool Islamic songs

    Although I am not Muslim, I love all religions and I love to learn about the culture and music of different religions. I'm actually doing courses at university with lots of focus on religion and read about all sorts of religions in my spare time. This is a great source of Islamic music...
