    Should we be disrespectful towards the Bible?

    Good topic, and still needed a lot, sadly It's best to tell them the truth "You belittle other's (non) Faith" Thereby being disrespectful Hence acting Adharmic I go totally No Contact with those that belittle I also go No Contact with murderers Those who belittle Faith or feelings of others...

    Proselytizing: What is it and is it a good or bad thing?

    Thank you @loverofhumanity for your friendly words For me "how" it's shared is the key, not "what". "How" determines how I feel (if the other is respectful or belittling). The intention is key (whether respectful or not) Even if a Christian insists on rattling about Bible verses ("what") for...

    Proselytizing: What is it and is it a good or bad thing?

    Proselytizing has its base in the belief: a)"My Faith is superior than your (non) Faith" b)"Your (non) Faith is inferior than my Faith" I need not explain such impact of "belittling"

    Challenge: I'm willing to convert if.......

    When I was young (1975), I wanted to travel the world. In 1989 I made my world trip. Half way my "travel desire" was gone, and I started reading Spiritual books. Reading got me interested in Spirituality. Next year I booked my trip to India. I was drawn to a Master in the South, and I stayed in...

    Bad Chihuahua! (An Inability To Separate God From Religion)

    I think that a first step is "stop belittling other Faiths", only then they are ready to "recognize" and think "logical" on God related subjects

    “Hindus fall because they worship lesser gods.” Abrahamics are trampling Hindus. Can you help me understand?

    This is due to ignorance To trample Hindus or to belittle Hindu Faith just demonstrates they belittle God, as all are "God's Children" according to Christianity And to belittle God goes against Abrahamic Scriptures, hence they can't even be called Abrahamics

    “Hindus fall because they worship lesser gods.” Abrahamics are trampling Hindus. Can you help me understand?

    To claim this, means the person belittles Hinduism and thereby exhibit to the world their own arrogance. Arrogance is known to blind people, this is obviously the biggest obstacle for Spiritual growth. Knowing this, I need not talk to such people, as Spiritual blind people are not the guides I...

    To lie is not smart Speaking truth is usually best If I don't know, I just say so If needed I remain silent

    Bad Chihuahua! (An Inability To Separate God From Religion)

    Not so strange. I can understand that Religion drives honest people away IF the Religion belittles other Religions or Humanism etc., as they trample their "soul". That can't be right, and goes against any true Master's advice

    Challenge: I'm willing to convert if.......

    Living in the present moment can grant you your spiritual proofs Gathering proofs from events in the past, and using them to prove things about Spirituality won't work I have searched, witnessed and experienced miracles, so I have plenty of proof If you want proof, you need to search for it...

    “Hindus fall because they worship lesser gods.” Abrahamics are trampling Hindus. Can you help me understand?

    You make a claim about 1200 million Hindus I know for a fact your claim is false Easy to prove even Why you make such claim? Would be a good start for you Doing introspection trumps judging others You probably are an Abrahamic, right?

    Populist Xenophobia moves The Netherlands to the Right

    I was just reading the newspaper in which was said, that there are already 5 members with principle objections against having Wilder's PVV at all If none of the other parties want to work with Wilders, he can't do much. Wilders already accepted that he won't be Prime Minister. And most of his...

    Even in Russia being disrespectful to Koran is "not done" (well, according to Putin in below youtube)

    Does present exists ?

    More like "Being (present/aware)" Lack of thoughts (future, past or present) The moment we use words for "state beyond" We understandably fail, the key is to read between te words, and Be, and Know in Silence

    “Hindus fall because they worship lesser gods.” Abrahamics are trampling Hindus. Can you help me understand?

    Makes sense to me It doesn't claim "all Hindus fall" 1500 million Hindus we have now Would need a miracle if 0 fall And of course this falling apllies to Muslims, Christians, Jews, Bahais
