    Our inherent failure to understand foreign religious concepts

    I have noticed that us humans tend to judge and understand alien religions based on the worldview of our own religion and culture rather than on the other religions and cultures own concepts. Two examples are the concept of God and truth. Monotheists tend to believe that worshipping one god...

    Spiritual Journey 3.0

    Hi guys, RF is a very important place for me. Before I became a member I stalked these threads for years because I was investigating different religions, as I was raised Catholic and then became atheist, and at that stage my curiosity was reinvigorated by the book The Great Controversy and the...

    The Israel/Palestine Discourse Monopoly

    Hi there, I am interested in hearing peoples motivation behind discussing the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. Why is it popular in discourse and what motivates people to support either side, often with such emotional investment, especially if they are not Israeli or Palestinian? And why do...

    Resurgence of Racism

    Is it me or does it seem that racism, xenophobia and nationalism are making a comeback? And by that I don't mean that racism and nationalism ever left the building in the first place, but that their supporters have found enough popular support for their views that they feel it is relatively...

    Covid-19 is very very real and dangerous

    People around me are either suffering or dying. My cousin had the Delta variant of covid, and my aunt and cousins went to visit her even though my father warned them not to.

    Conversion Ethics

    I have placed this in the general debates section because it isn't only religions that preach and aim to convert others to their cause. Is it ethical to preach and attempt to convert people who are in a bad place in their lives, who are in a fragile emotional state? Examples of targets: -...

    Eve and the Serpent - Jews and Christians

    Technically the serpent didn't lie to Eve. 1. Eve didn't die by eating the fruit. Nowhere in the account is her death recorded. We do not know when she died. 2. The Serpent was right that by eating the fruit, Eve would be like God, knowing good and evil. Even God agreed, which is why he...
