Can anyone verify that christianity, judaism, buddhism, jainism or any other religion
is a true religion? Any one?
All of you will give reasons and points but give me something to really convince me. Come on? Who will go first?
Spaceman, I don't see any point to your answer.
I already know Jesus Christ(May Peace Be On Him) was one of God's Prophet.
Nyah,
I think you should read stories of new Muslims of how they became Muslims and why? Believe me I have.
Mindoflife,
How do you know I'm a Muslim? May be I'm studying all the religions to find out which is the true religion and follow it myself. May be I didn't include Islam because I've studied it extensively already and so far I've found it to be the most sensible and reliable and most trustworthy. There is gotta be some person whose neutral to Islam. Because so far this is the only religion under fire from all sides and apparently the only most fastest growing religion in the world despite the negativity portrayed against it in the media. There is a whole lot of negative propaganda against it in the media. Are you really intellectually challenged and biased enough to believe the media.
evade,DEYou r the man. You're spot on. May be I'll choose your answer as the best but for now, patience there are more pouring in. Let's see what they have to say.
Can anyone at least give me some verses from their respective scriptures pertaining to science.
no1home2...
I didn't know we were having a competitional debate. By the way how do you know all that stuff were you there at those times or r u just blowing wind out of your ***. Aside from speaking when he was only a baby on behalf of his mother, raising the dead, curing the blind and the leper what other miracles did Jesus(May Peace Be On Him) perform. Do you have any proof. Please give me solid proof otherwise let the real intellectuals chip in.
good tree,
You're way off base here. Come back to earth.
If you find the Old and New Testaments confusing try the Koran.
Islam claims to be the final chapter with the final prophet. Christianity claimed to be the final chapter.
Christianity has God's Son dying in the place of humanity to provide forgiveness of sins. Forgiveness and eternal life are through faith. I'll take that over the Koran.
Apparently you think Islam is the only true religion.
If that is so, YOU prove it.
And don't even try to say the Koran remained unchanged so that proves it, -- that's a false premise and/or a logical fallacy, because:
1. No proof that it remained unchanged, and there is proof that it did change.
2. Even IF it remain unchanged, that alone does not prove it is true. If it was wrong to begin with, then remaining unchanged means it is still wrong!
Er, you think the only 'true' religion is the only one that inspires numerous followers to blow themselves and everyone around them into tiny pieces, in a daily basis, across the planet...?
there is no proof to verify any religion (INCLUDING Islam).
EDIT: And being a former Buddhist, I followed Buddhism more as a philosophy, and not a religion (many others do too). It's about meditating to release yourself from selfish desires to achieve true peace and bliss (Nibbana).
Sadly, you're making a claim, but not willing or able to defend it.
In logic as well as in law, "historical precedent" means that the burden of proof rests on those who set forth new theories and not on those whose ideas have already been verified. The old tests the new. The already established authority judges any new claims to authority.
Since Islam came along many centuries after Christianity, Islam has the burden of proof and not Christianity. The Bible tests and judges the Qur'an. When the Bible and The Qur'an contradict each other, the Bible must logically be given first place as the older authority. The Qur'an is in error until it proves itself.
Muslims violate the principle of historical precedent by asserting that Islam does not have the burden of proof and that the Qur'an judges the Bible.
Furthermore, if you have already assumed in your premise what you are going to state in your conclusion, then you have ended where you began and pr oven nothing.
If you end where you began, you got nowhere.
There are over 300+ prophecies that were fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Then some 800 years later, some dude decides to tho in his two cents' worth, and without any thing to support his claim - neither ancient texts telling us of his coming, nor anything he did to demonstrate that his claims were true, and yet you tell me that you believe this nutcase. If somebody came to you and said "I am a banana, and it's true because I said so!" What do you do with a fruit case like that? You lock him up! Mohammed came along and said "God sent me" Someone says "Prove it" He said "Believe me or die!" How is THAT any kind of proof? Get real! Mohammed neither said NOR did anything that supports his claims that God sent him!
Jesus performed hundreds (if not thousands) of miracles to support His case. What did Mohammed do to prove HIS case? Nothing! Absolutely nothing!
Now, you need to either defend your claims, or leave the "podium" for someone else!
Sorry, you lose - and not on just one level, but on many MANY levels!
You are grounded into your belief that Islam is the one true religion, and i bet nothing we say is really going to make a deep impression on you. Therefore you just have to read testimonials.
There are many Muslims who have converted to Christianity, and the Christians who converted to Islam were seeking new spiritual opportunities (according to many testimonies Ive read on the Internet
Here are a few which i think are quite interesting.
Are you going to follow these links, or are you afraid of what lies behind them?
The truth is you need to compare the different religions, and find which one OTHER than your own religion seems most practical to you. THEN you can compare your religion with that religion and find which one is most practical.
By the way, go spurs go, is saying Buddhism is the most practical religion. I think one thing that makes it impractical is that Buddhism says the universe is eternal, when there is empirical evidence that it in fact had a beginning. Because the universe is expanding at an ever increasing rate, everything was created, and the universe will eventually be torn apart.
No one can do that because you have already made up your mind.
First came Judaism (the Torah) then Christianity (the Bible) then Islam (the Qur'an) as for Buddhism and Jainism, I have hear of them but know not the history of Jainism.
Islamic Religion took parts of Judaism and Christianity and refined them.
I wouldn't convince you if I could. It would neither uplift you nor give you the spiritual strength you need. I couldn't prove my religion was the right one if I tried, and the couple of times that I accidentally convinced people, it turned out badly. I am much happier when people get to know God on his terms and get their own answers to life's questions. I am willing to help.
Buddhism.. it has no gods to worship. Its a way of life... it was created for people to follow and have a better life without suffering. More of a philosophy than a religion really.
no, and i don't have to prove anything to you.
what i do know is that Islam is the most intolerant religion of all. it claims to accept other religions, but only on Muslim terms. it tries to impose itself on whoever is around. spreads to different countries and tries to make them change their ways to fit those of Muslims. liberal countries have no idea what they are harboring in their midst. and when they wake up it will be too late.
I only believe in Jesus because I met him. I can't say that I was looking at the time, it was a real spiritual experience that has changed my life. God says that he can be found, I have found this to be true.
