Hello, Brian, I am not sticking around here tonight. Rough day watching my wife stain our new deck. Also my eyes hurt from the fumes that she deliberately caused to get in my eyes. The things I put up with to keep my wife happy! LOL James

>>>False religions have no true system of justice.<<< You are exactly right. I need not read anymore. I can't live without God or Truth for that matter. Knowledge is law. Life begins with self-government for us mortals. But, knowledge is only one path to knowing, faith works among others ways of attainment. (well, I don't know about the hitler part)(If he still has a soul, I doubt it will return.)(however, like Christ's unfinished work, hitler may need to complete his effects on the world by undoing...if possible?..a mystery to me)(I think nothing comes from nothing and everything from all....god is a clown and the joke is duality)

If you are avoiding the consequences of sin - then you do not want to know the truth. Something you have made us very much aware of over and again. Well most sainted and venerated One..please inform me where religion and Truth and Justice every coincided? ...We have a great nation and system of justice built on all the collective past experiences that have been shaped by the evolving perceptions of the basic gurantees of our constitution and the federated interests of the states as framed always by the Constitution. And the separation of Church and State . And we grow as we know , seek answers and educate ourselves to the task...not always noble in the past but always shaping up. Avoiding the consequences of Sin is something I have made you aware of here ? Isn't it more akin to you calling anything other than your little black kettle of magic tricks and holy-rolling pronounciations the works of the "EVIL ONE" ? That I choose not to believe in your fantasy world is my right and free choice. Punishment is not popular but your religions are - could there be a connection? As far as your hope that Christianity will eventually fade out... you really don't get it do you? The Religion/Philosophy/Art of Life we call Buddhism is exercised daily over in the country of Japan , and yes they do have alcoholism and crime as we , but not quite on the same scale would you agree ? But they are still sinners to you and damned , well that is your right to believe , but i think you are filled with rot. Jesus living today , would have no problems with seeking common ground of interfaiths and peace , yet you have none. AS for Christianity fading out , it is through the efforts of such as you that it will do so. That accomplishment is all yours . I like personally the Jesus story, but rarely the contexts of your scriptural approach , which embraces the sword of Peter and has promoted perpetual religious wars. You are a soldier for Christ and one of the "Elect", then show me something greater than the sword then. As close to damning the teachings of Jesus , as any could come . But God doesn;t damn anything does he Elect ? Only such as you do thinking he owns "Justice"....and in Japan they have beautiful and quiet Temples where peace reigns supreme... Amen.
