Yo ho ho and a book called the bible...

is how christianity sprang....

Christians who practise conversion, have to critically examinie their own religion before misguiding others...

Christians already examined their religion many times. FYI majority of the christians are educated. Because education was not reserved by particular community in christianity.

Cape Comorin , I read your comments and dismissed them as that of a pervert who praises his religion while spitting venom on others religion calling them as pagan.
First dont confuse schooling with education . Read Mark Twain on the subject and Twain was a Christian.
Remember 95 Theses that Luther pinned on the Door of the Schlosskirche (castle church) , sparking the Reformation. Every faith has its good and bad points. I dont think Christianity is a bad religion because it burnt poor old women as witches. Or that the Catholic church stood by Hitler when he massacred the Jews. These are abberations that dont represent the faith itself . So dont damn Hinduism because some obcure rules made women of Travancore from wearing the tops.
I may not accept that Jesus Christ was God but I still have infinite respect for a man who lived the life he is supposed to have lived.
The only thing that bothers me is that he died on the cross for people like you who can be so intolerant to other people's faith . Judas was better he did it for silver!

Really, cape???

It is doubtful indeed... the bishop of ireland had conclusively issued a "BINDING" statement, from his authoritative study of the bible, about the beginning of the world....

And that's the end of that.. no more arguments... the bishop would not have tolerated...

And probably by education, you mean knowledge of english... a language...?

Dear Cape, have you completed reading The Necessity of Atheism by Dr. D.M. Brooks? Are you of the same opinion even after reading that book????

I think you got a wrong book. It is about futility of religions and superstitions only.

@cape

i still know some thing very clear abt christanity ....

christanity prohibited any one to disagree with its tenants and one such example was Galileo who was placed in house arrest for his heliocentric theeory ..there are many such examples

the day when europe separated religion from science --that day ensured prosperity

That means you do not know anything about christianity.
Read new testament and get to know about christianity. Then come for discussion.

Cape.... do not carp on christianity...

No human being needs any religion for basic qualities of love, esteem and understanding...

It is only for self realisation that religion is needed...

So do not take a leaf from a figment of your imagination and discuss needlessly...

Maybe in another 5 decades, a "Modern Testament".... an edited and improved version of the "New Testament" would be published...
