Revoltifarianism is certified error free.
- Our POOP (Pamphlet Of Original Parables) is in its original uncorrupted Amricastanian English.
- None of its claims are disprovable.
- There's no conflict with the world's other great religion, Bokononism.

There are, however, huge conflicts with Rivalism.

Its a tough one.

Lionheart,
I claim no credentials from man, because the Bible says not to trust any man, Psalms 146:3,4, Jeremiah 17:5.
Credentialism seems to be a real problem with some people. Do you not realize that it is God who qualifies a person to be a teacher of God’s word?? 2Corinthians 3:1-6.
As the Bible says, some that want to be teachers, are hirelings, called Mercenaries today, and do not care for God’s people, but only for money, or some other reward, John 10:11-13.
Paul, who was the greatest teacher of Christianity, said that he would rather die than take money for teaching God’s word, 1Corinthians 9:16-18. Jesus said; you received freely, give freely, Matthew 10:8, 1Timothy 6:3-6.

I agree,you shouldn't blindly trust any man so its always good to veryfiy their credentials.

Job ask for "work" credientials which focus on what experience one has for the job a resume, and skill in the field of the job area.

Religious could be initiation prerequistes, it could be what one is mentally or spiritually ready to follow that faith, it could be physical credientials-male, female, old, young.

Got to be more specific

Ok how about this,a religions god or gods what are their credentials,evidence of authority and how can this be verified.

hello.
my religion is shia islam.
we believe in monotheism, (oneneness of God), believe in the day of resurrection, believe in justice of God, also believe in all prophets who sent by God, the last prophet of God is prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him and his progeny).
prophets, prophet Mohammad and his family and successors are vicegerent of God on earth,
we believe on all of them and respect them.
prophet Mohammad and his progeny are beautiful names of God, we should love them, recognize them and obey them to attain prosperity in this life and salvation in after life.
God is all-merciful.
there are 114 times this verse in the Quran in the name of God the all-merciful, the most merciful.
prophet Mohammad and his progeny are mercy for entire creation.

we have not sent you but as a mercy for entire creation.
chapter 23 verse 107 of the holy Quran.

we pray five times daily, fast in the month of ramadan, give charity and oms and zakat,
go to haj pilgrimage if we can provide for ourselves the properties of going to haj and ordain good deeds, prevent others from evil deeds,
these are some of fundamentals and practices in our religion.

prophet Mohammad and his progeny want, strive and pray for salvation and guidance of all mankind, even for there enemies!
they dont want even one person go to hell!

imam mahdi reappears and make the world the best place, full of justice, monotheism, security, kindness, mercy, compassion, fraternity, love, and all good manners.

i recommend every one to read this book about virtues of prophet Mohammad and his progeny (peace be upon them).

after study, you can contact me privately..
i have many great islamic books and this is one of the greatest book which i introduce to you.

Ahl al-Bayt, The Celestial Beings on the Earth

Looks like the Mahdi could do with visiting the middle east ASAP.

Baha'is have no clerical or priestly offices. When one becomes a Baha'i they declare their Faith and become a member of their community. They do receive an Membership card with a number on it, this qualifies them to vote in elections or be considered for being a delegate or member of a Spiritual Assembly. Most Baha'is are members in good standing but if you violate Baha'i law you could lose your administrative rights.

Your god is the same as islams,what are allahs credentials?.

How they can be verified? Experience. That's one thing a lot of people who ask questions like this don't get. The criteria for "proof" is different when talking about one thing over another.

To verify the validity of gods is by experience. That's the credentials is you need to experience god's in order to know they exist. It's subjective.

Some people find worth in the Dharma. It is for them to make constructive use of it, care for it, improve and correct it to the best of their abilities.

Not sure I would call that credentials, but that is as close as it gets, I suppose.

Faith? Not all religions have faith. Some religious experiences are practices not believing in things that can't be proven. Their practices are credentials for the validity of their beliefs. In my belief, it's all practice when push comes to shove. Faith as in trust is involved but if you're going by biblical definition, no. Not all religions share that view.

Ok fair enough,not all religions proselytise so its aimed more at those.
