And why should any religion be true?

Because there is ONLY one God and his ONLY teachings are written in the Bible and caled Christianity.All others may be called different ways of life,different teachings,different traditions but not true religions.I accept other peoples way of thinking and traditions,but consider Jesus' teachings as the ONLY 100% true,because in contrast to all other,they have been send not by a man,but by God.

I'm sorry, but you sound irrational. And not to first time, on a sidenote. You never want to elaborate your opinions. Noone will take you as serious that way.

How do you know that knowledge of other religions hasen't been given to humans by God?. How can you prove it? You can't. That's why it is called faith. You just can believe it.

I find the Bhagavad Gita very interesting, for exmple. I don't see why the Bible should be the only holly writing with the privilege on turth. I also believe that the core message of the New Testament and Bhagavad Gita (and other similar writings for that matter) is pretty much the same.

The already mentioned Zoroasthrians also seem fascinating.

It doesn't really matter what you find fascinating or interresting.A man might find having sex with dead boddies fascinating,but that doesn't mean he is also right or should be tollerated.I believe only in what the BIble says and don't accept anything which is contrary to it.

And why should i elaborate the fact that i believe in christianity and its values?I don't accept other teachings and that's it.I also don't care if you take me seriously,it matters what people do,not what they think.

If you're a Christian, Christain God is the only right God, it's part of the faith. If you're not, then not.

Such discussions are pointless anyway, since faith is a personal thing.

Comparing other religions with necrophilia? Great!

First you said: "Jesus' teachings as the ONLY 100% true" (you seemed like you can prove it), and then "I believe only in what the BIble".

Huh?

I'm not,i compare it to something i believe is wrong.I don't have a physical proof that Jesus is 100% right.

Well ok, then. I misunderstood you in your post. I though you claim to know and not to believe.

Do you really think so?

It looks like they've taken their inspiration from late Roman Catholic imagery, rather than scripture or common sense.
I mean, look at the picture where there are some black-bearded men behind him; why is Jesus made so physically distinct from his compatriots? Is righteousness and holiness the preserve only of the fair-haired?
And it's a funny sort of hair colour they've given him! An absurdly contrived look. And far too greasy looking too!

Actually you tried to tell him his Christian God is not the (only) real God. Which is against his faith.

As I said, useless debate for both of you.

Not his God, but his way of worshipping Him.

Not only words matter, but also contents. Not everyone who says of himeslf he is a Christian, is truely a Christian. I could say I am a millionaire, but me saying that will not make me one.

The only way of worshipping is that he considers Christian God as the only right God.

[Arthur Gordon Pym]

Is also this a "Christian" message?



It might be a mockery though...
