Keep religious beliefs personal to promote peaceful coexistence

[Astargath]

^^^ Since your language is this different from the standard, I don't really understand what you mean, and you won't understand this post.

Is this your way of saying, I'm right? As usual, when out of arguments you simply try to ignore it, haha, no wonder you believe in stupid shit. 0 critical thinking.

[BADecker]

There is only one religious belief that should be expressed in public, when there is no question asked of you. This is the fact that Jesus Christ died and arose for the sins of all people, so that all have the chance to be saved for eternal life.

Other expressions of religion should exist in simple question form, or in the way one lives his life. Ask simple questions to get info about the religion of others. If they ask you questions about your religion, then you can express the answers to what they ask. but do so with sensitivity to their feelings and their religion. True religion is to do good to all people. If expressing religious beliefs antagonizes other, they should be kept to one's self.

Everyone believes in different Gods so we have to respect that.
No religious expressing should be expressed and you just do it right now, which doesn't promote peace around people with different beliefs.

^^^ Stating a fact - Jesus salvation - isn't religion.

If someone asks you about your religion, shouldn't you be friendly and answer him?

If you can't get someone to ask you about your religion, you can ask him about his. He doesn't have to converse if he doesn't want to. And you should be polite and not press the issue.

None of these things is expressing your religion until someone wants to trade religious info. And that is the way to spread religion without being offensive.

However, since it seems to be your religion to not express religion, why did you go against your religion in your above post?

[exemplaar]

Is that what Christians look like where you come from? Is that what you think Christians look like? Christians are shirtless redneck white blue eyed blond southern rebels with pump shotguns while the muslim is in white robes with a proper weapon?
For not being from where southern rebels exist what do you know about such a person and why would you conflate that with Christians in general?
It looks to me like you want to disparage the image of a Christian.. No?

I am a Christian by believe but free-spirited by ideology I reside in a place predominantly occupied by Muslims but I have survived here by not enforcing my religious thoughts on others and share understanding.

Are you admitting that you would not survive among muslims as a Christian if you acted like the muslims living among us Christians do?

Bumping this...

Can a thread starter answer the question please?

First of all, never misunderestimate a pump shotgun in the hands of a trained user.

Second, I do get the impression the message here is "Westerners, shut up. Muslims, be as offensive as you want."

Were you there when it happened? I don't see any history book mentioning it besides the science fiction book, the bible. How do we know it happened? How do we know that even if something like that happened it wasn't some sort of illusion created by aliens that are trying to control us? It's a hoax, there is no proof for it.

[BADecker]

^^^ But if you examine what is happening, archaeology is gradually proving the Bible to be true.

So, we don't only have the science of the nation of Israel, we also have the science of archaeology.

In addition, we have the science of standard science that proves itself not capable of finding any other way than the Bible.

What else do you want? Even science is proving the Bible true, and that they are wrong in many of the standard ideas that they have been promoting.

No it's not, archaeology and any science is literally proving the bible to be wrong. https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Biblical_scientific_errors

As you can see, science proves the bible to be wrong in anything.


''In addition, we have the science of standard science that proves itself not capable of finding any other way than the Bible.'' I don't know what that means.

''we don't only have the science of the nation of Israel'' Like what?

^^^ It's kinda nice that you like expressing your religious beliefs like that.

If evidence provided means religious beliefs, sure, although you are the one who claims stuff without any evidence like: 'archaeology is gradually proving the Bible to be true.' or 'Even science is proving the Bible true'
When exactly has science proved the bible to be true? It has always been exactly the opposite, pretty much everything in science disproves the bible.

Astronomy disproves the bible since we know the universe is way older than what the bible suggests.

Geology disproves it with the age of the earth.

Biology disproves the bible as well.

In my belief.Religion makes you a better person.Entering in religion is a matter.infact for me if you are in one relgion you will never do such bad thing in all fellowmen.what ever your religion it is.this is important.if you are truely believe of what religion teach us you wont do harm in coexisting.if you follow your religion deeply in your heart yes peaceful coexisting can be done.
Its our choice what ever you want.be in relgion or not if you think to do good our religion is not a matter.

No matter what they teach you, you will still be you, deep down. Are religious people significantly less likely to commit crimes or more likely to help others? Several studies suggest even the contrary so how do we really know if religion makes you a better person?

Astronomy doesn't prove the universe is way older than the Bible suggests. Rather, interpretations of astronomical data suggest that the universe is older. Those scientist interpretations are based on "if this" and "if that" and "if something else," then "maybe" the age of the universe is "such."

Geologists who suggest that geology shows the age of the earth, are ignoring a whole lot of geology that suggests a different age.

Biology proves by its complexity that we have always been way off in our understanding of biological processes. The more we get into biology, the more complex we find it to be. Complexity only serves to prove God. I mean, would anyone suggest that dumb nature can create such complexity? Lol.

You have the wrong gods when you trust in scientists' interpretations.

Good question.

Although the religious can assert beliefs, this is a question demanding facts.

[Davidovic]

Fully agree with statment of author. I think that religion is very personal thing and I think that the worst thing to do is to promote it and to do it in aggressive way.

You've read my mind. This is exactly my point of view.

''The more we get into biology, the more complex we find it to be'' Stop using the word complexity like that, it doesn't mean what you think it does unless you have some weird definition of complexity, science isn't finding things to be more complex unless you have evidence of such.

[BADecker]

^^^ Well, at least you are making your religious belief known... that we shouldn't advance anywhere beyond the complexity of Darwin's day.
