Religion, Religious and disrespect for religions.

[~v3n0m~]

Being a Buddhist, a Christian, a Hindu, a Muslim
(or one belongs to any other religion)
doesn't mean that one is a saint,
or even a good person.


It only means that
one is born to a family
which is supposed to follow a certain Religion.
It is not anyone's conscious decision.

So as he grows up
he believes
that he belongs to that religion
and it is his duty to protect it.
So fights for it,
argue about it,
do so many things
other than following the religious teaching.
He protects his title
and thinks he is protecting his religion.

At the same time many makes the mistake
of condemning other religions
thinking
that it would make his religion
shines brighter.
But
he insults his own religion
and he himself
by doing so.


The best way to save a religion
is to follow one's own religion
as the founder advised to follow.

Glorifying ones own religion
like a political party
and
attacking other religions
shows the ignorance of one's own religion.


Some who don't respect
their own religion is a group
not worth even discussing about.

God must love the common man,
he made so many of them.
Abraham Lincoln ​

i dnt belive god and lincon is just another pilitition for me,

Tru but people must know all religion teaching has some similaraties, basically "pansil" is a gud expample, anyone can go to temple everyday wearing white, can go to mosque wearing a cap, can go to church ever sunday, but that wont make them religious people, its a show off typo,

I think they are on a better ground
than one who never go.
They are in touch,
at least physically.

One has to go to the core
through superficial.

It is the priests responsibility to
lead them deeper.
But
most of them are more superficial than laymen.

Now
it is becoming miraculous to be guided by a priest.
Misguidance is common.

Don't worry about God,
but
read Lincoln's life.
He was not a politician,
in the sense you know about politicians.

Read these quotes by him
http://home.att.net/~rjnorton/Lincoln78.html
and check whether
he sounds like a politician.

"Perhaps a man's character was like a tree,
and his reputation like its shadow;
the shadow is what we think of it,
the tree is the real thing."
Abraham Lincoln

Leave the shadow and find the tree.

The moment
you want to believe something,
you suddenly see all the arguments for it,
and
become offended by the arguments against it.

Seela
is one third of a Buddhist.
How about Samadhi and Pragna.?
One should grow religiously everyday,
if he is religious.

Pancha Seela
is a tiny part of
Sabba papassa akaranam

Kusalassa upasampada
and
Sachitta pariyodapanan
also there.

Read about Lincoln and decide.
He is the most loved and respected
politician of recent history.

It is worth reading.

"If I were to try to read, much less answer,
all the attacks made on me,
this shop might as well be closed
for any other business.
I do the very best I know how - the very best I can;
and I mean to keep doing so until the end.
If the end brings me out all right,
what's said against me won't amount to anything.
If the end brings me out wrong,
ten angels swearing I was right
would make no difference."

I'd love to see an attic large enough to store a church organ!

That's a church organ!

Oh.
I didn't mean it as a church organ,
but
Something like Bengali Ektar'

If we both new Lincoln we could discuss.
I can't replace your imagination
with my knowledge about Lincoln.
That you have to do
yourself.

When you say
"all American presidents have very nice inauguration speeches"
it doesn't mean that you read all of them.

When you categorize things
or people in general
you miss a lot.
I talk about a person
who born as a peasant
and
became the most respectable president ever.
