Question:
Yo, David!! Was just passing by and saw you here. Altho, .. "here" is a *lot* of places, seeing the headers. Wow, what an X-post!! I too am curious, why do Christians feel the need to bring their philosophy to a Buddhist forum? Perhaps if more christians studied the real message of Jesus they would’nt need all this fire and brimstone apocalyptic nonsense. Life and love are right here, right now, if one is aware of it. If those same christians would study a bit of Buddhism, they would find quite a few parallels between Buddha and Jesus. So many, that it would seem the latter was a clone of the former.
We’re in agreement on this! Ouch! You really know how to push a Christian’s buttons. The problem is the whole "GOD" thing. Buddha didn’t go for the old "Supreme Being" interpretation, it seems. Christians have to impose their religion on others mostly because of the insecurity built into the religion.
My guess is it’s the insecurity built into the Christians, not the religion. The thing is, they don’t take the "trip" (ie, meditation), but just read about it in the Bible. (just my opinion) That’s all anyone has, an opinion, even those that claim The Truth.
Well, there is the "trip", and it doesn’t *need* to be an opinion. -mikey "To be concerned with the issue; soul versus non-soul, is to be in bondage to craving for becoming and non-becoming." –Buddha —– Posted via NewsOne.Net: Free (anonymous) Usenet News via the Web —– http://newsone.net/ — Free reading and anonymous posting to 60,000+ groups NewsOne.Net prohibits users from posting spam.

It’s been trimmed now. I too am curious, why do Christians feel the need to bring their philosophy to a Buddhist forum?

Not in a Western style. From what I’ve read, the old style of Buddhism has it’s gods and such. I see the main problem as believing in any kind of religion, instead of concentrating on, and dealing with, reality. Christians have to impose their religion on others mostly because of the insecurity built into the religion. My guess is it’s the insecurity built into the Christians, not the religion. The thing is, they don’t take the "trip" (ie, meditation), but just read about it in the Bible.
One need not "take the trip" in order to lead a meaningful, and wonderful, life. I see an insecurity in searching, and searching, and searching, for something that doesn’t exist. (just my opinion) That’s all anyone has, an opinion, even those that claim The Truth. Well, there is the "trip", and it doesn’t *need* to be an opinion.
But it is. "To be concerned with the issue; soul versus non-soul, is to be in bondage to craving for becoming and non-becoming." –Buddha
Then the answer would be to not even deal with the "soul versus non-soul" issue. There is no answer because one side is totally invented and based on a priori assumptions. Just because "soul" and "spiritual" is not part of my life does not mean that I lead a drab, meaningless, life. It’s quite the opposite. I find my life exciting, valuable, meaningful. I am excited by the unknown, science, art, and nature. I harm no one and help where ever I can. My life is filled with love and joy, not gods and oppression. My mind is free, not burdened with religion. — David J. Vorous http://www.TheLlamaRanch.com Before you judge someone, walk a mile in their shoes.

NO! Not if you’re going to clone Jesus. His followers are a pain in the ….. The Buddha would be all right, not one Buddhist has knocked on my door, or tried to insert their beliefs into my government. I respect them for that. — David J.

Because the Christians are on a God given mission to convert everyone, even the Buddhists. Or at least that’s what they tell me when they get my door slammed in their face at 7:00 AM on Sunday mornings. Pests if you ask me. I too am curious, why do Christians feel the need to bring their philosophy to a Buddhist forum? Perhaps if more christians studied the real message of Jesus they would’nt need all this fire and brimstone apocalyptic nonsense. Life and love are right here, right now, if one is aware of it. (just my opinion) Thomas J. 3/6/2001 What is your motive in spreading the news of a volcano that you think is going to erupt? You also bring Jesus Christ in this Buddhist news group. Are you saying Jesus has the solution to the problem? So, what are they? Frances YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK At the end of 1999, BBC television showed a scientific documentary about how there is, in Yellowstone National Park, a hidden super volcano measuring approximately thirty miles across. There are three or four other such volcanoes in the world. The scientists have discovered that this volcano erupts every 600,000 years and for the period of history that they have been able to investigate have noted that every time that it erupts life is destroyed on this planet because of climatic changes. A stream of lava, gas and dust is hurled into the atmosphere and circles this planet cutting out the warming benefits of the Sun. Ice Age conditions prevail everywhere and crops and natural vegetation have no chance of survival. The television programme revealed that it is now 600,000 years since this volcano last erupted and it is a disaster waiting to happen, which maybe tomorrow or ten years time. But one thing is clear – it will happen. In the Bible at Matthew 16:2-3 Jesus slated the Pharisees and Sadducees because they discerned the face of the sky but not the signs of the times. They knew how to interpret weather signs but were ignorant of what was really happening around in the fulfilment of the kingdom in the person of Jesus. Matthew 24 describes end times conditions and they are in the newspapers and on television every day. Revelation 6:12-17 describes conditions which will prevail when the sixth seal is opened and the conditions are similar to what will happen when the super volcano erupts. Most people are ignorant of what is going on around them because Satan is the great deceiver and blinds the eyes of men. The Bible says so. Now God does nothing anything unless somebody asks Him. Here is some bad news for the unsaved because in line with Zechariah 4:7, there are some people who have prayed that Father takes the capstone off that volcano and brings about the conditions described in Revelation 6:12-17. It is going to happen. Some Christians are also praying the Father for the completion of all end times prophecies. But now the good news. THE GOOD NEWS ABOUT JESUS Jesus Christ is the divine, eternal Son of God, who became a member of the human race by virgin birth. He led a sinless life, died on the cross at Calvalry as a propitiatory sacrifice for the sins of humanity, was buried and rose again in bodily form from the grave on the third day. He ascended into heaven whence He will return to Earth in person, to judge the living and the dead. Every one who repents of sin and trusts in the sacrifice of Jesus receives forgiveness of sins and the gift of eternal life. In the Bible at 2 Thessalonians 2:3, Paul warns of widespread apostasy from the Christian Faith. Unless those who refuse to accept Jesus as their Saviour and those who pervert the gospel, bring upon themselves the wrath and the curse of God. Repent now for the second coming of Jesus is at hand. The day of the Lord upon all the nations is near. There is only one way to receive salvation and that is to call upon the name of the Lord and confess Jesus as your personal Saviour and the Lord and Master of your life (Romans 10:9-10;13). Every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist that is now already in the world (1 John 4:3). Pray from the bottom of your heart the following prayer and get to the Church of Jesus Christ where you can receive further guidance essential for your protection and how you can have a personal relationship with your Father in heaven. A Prayer for Salvation Dear Heavenly Father I come to you in the name of Jesus. Your Word says, "…him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out" (John 6: 37). So I know you won’t cast me out, but You take me in, And I thank You for it. You said in Your Word, "Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved" (Romans 10:13). I am calling on Your name, so I know You have saved me now. You also said, "..if thou shall confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation" (Romans 10: 9-10). I believe in my heart Jesus Christ is the son of God. I believe that He was raised from the dead for my justification. And I confess Him now as my Lord. Because Your Word says, "… with the heart man believeth unto righteousness…." and I do believe with my heart, I have now become the righteousness of God in Christ. (2 Corinthians 5: 21)…..And I am saved. Thank You Lord. Amen SIN (See 1 John 1:9 & Colossians 2:13-14) We stay free of condemnation and guilt by confessing our sins to Father and claiming the forgiveness that is already ours through the Blood of Jesus. We can then pray: "Heavenly Father I come to you in the name of Jesus. I have sinned. I have done perversely, and I have rebelled. I have committed (name the sin). But I return in repentance and claim my forgiveness through the Blood of Jesus. He is my atonement. Thank You Father for Your provision. Thank You for Your faithfulness in forgiving and cleansing me that I might have right standing in Your sight. Amen." Along with this prayer of confession, we must also where possible, confess our sins to and make restitution to anyone we may have harmed by our sins. See Matthew 5:23-24. Satan will try and keep you in bondage because he is the accuser of the brethren (Revelation 12:10). He will use people to frequently remind you of the sins you have committed. But you can overcome him by the Blood of the Lamb and by the word of your testimony (Revelation 12:11), wielding the sword of the spirit which is the Word of God (Ephesians 6:17).
