    occam's razor, people. whether or not i believe in a god has had no effect on the way my environment interacts with me (i've experienced no evidence that favors the existance of karma or any god-like beings). so why should i believe in things that i haven't experienced? religion is our way of filling in the gaps of our knowledge without using the scientific method.

    anticonversion, Hinduism is full of wider beliefs. The science is one aspect, which is cool, just knowlege. But there is also a lot of nonsense and insane ritualistic teaching. There is good teaching, and then insane.

    Hindus in India to be honest are a joke, they way some worship. It's freaky. This is my opinion and I am sure millions will agree, having some elephant god as a statue where people sing songs and act foolishly weird, it's scary. I do wonder why Western Europe has moved on. ;)

    And I love eating beef. I don't eat too much meat, probably, three times a week, and my diet is healthy.

    But saying eating beef is wrong, because in your culture it gave milk and for farming is not right, because for example in Britain, it provided rich food in the earlier centuries.

    Too much meat, is not good to eat. Just a little is ok, but overall, India is full of freaky religions.

    Some look nice and cool, but others one TINY example of rat worshipping is crazy.

    Every living creature and everything in creation is sacred, for it is made by the Lord and there is the energy of the Lord in it!
    If a higher evolved beings life is in jeopardy because of the low evolved one (eg snake or rat) then there is nothing wrong in killing the low evolved one if there is no other option. Pls go in-depth into the Hindu philosophy before criticising what u see on the surface! God bless U!

    Aside from religious significance, marriage is no more than a cohabitation agreement. Aside from one's having one's union recognized as sacred, marriage serves absolutely no purpose. Some may cite the legal status and advantages of being married, but those things exist only as a result of the previous existence of marriage.

    It is perfectly legal and permissible to cohabitate in virtually any arrangement. Any societal tenets suggesting the need for marriage are all but gone. Marriage for any other purpose than to establish a Godly union is pointless.

    The bottom line: The Word of God clearly details that government sanction is a requirement for marriage; therefore, it is essential that both government and the church must be in the "marriage business."

    ADDED: In response to your recent edit, scripture states that marriage is honorable for all, but this applies only to marriage as God defines it.

    Rocco: "Are you then implying that MY beliefs are deserving of any LESS respect than yours?"

    I have "religious beliefs;" that is, things I accept as likely without knowing them to be absolute certainty. As soon as I inject one of those into the discussion, I'll identify it at such. In this forum, I tend to limit my statements about God to those things that have been confirmed as fact.

    There is no such thing as Hinduism as the name Hinduism would mean belief in the river Indus. The 9 philosophies, Nav-Ratnas (9 gems) of India like Samkhya, Yoga, Nyaya, Vaiseshika, Purva-Mimamsa, Uttara-Mimamsa, Charvaka, Jainism & Buddhism make up one Sanatana Dharma, the Eternal Religion.

    I know there is a one dimension, this is the origin or father of all phenomenon or appearances..Would a Christian or HIndu believe this to be their God…?

    Jesus was a SatGuru, a spiritual Master of his times. Bible is manipulated! Which version Bible are we talking about. Check out the video, "Bible is repulsive" on YouTube. The world is not flat.

    I Agree with it. Hinduism is one of the oldest in the world. The Human values are very high. Everyone respects the Hindu families because of their values.
