Re: Which religion has the best proof?

Mrs. Harsha Shah, I've decided to fix your list by putting the religions you've listed in the correct order:. . .

2. Mormonism: The LSD Church identify itself as "Christian", but since you put them as a separate religion, I'll do too. It still has evidence because of the ones of Christianity and because Landover Baptists claim (and I believe them) that Jesus came in America and met the red tribes. However, the founder was a Fairy Tale author, therefore losing most of his credibility.

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!


Don't speak for Landover Baptist on this subject because we have NEVER claimed that Jesus came to America to meet the naked natives. WE brought Jesus with us to America.


Furthermore, just don't speak on behalf of Landover or any other Baptists, period. Got that, Padre? We don't put words into the mouths of you Catholic clergy, probably because all of your mouths are already full.


(No need for details on that last part, I should think. )

Re: Which religion has the best proof?

What on earth is going on there? Is the pope pretending to transfer energy from his heart into the statue to make his customers think it's magic? Or is he trying to suck magic out from the statue into his own chest, so he'll be even more magic than [he thinks] he is already?

In either case, it's the veriest definition of idolatry even if they say, "O it's only a statue it's not an idol." The fact of magic infusions being considered real is what constitutes idolatry. Regardless of the magic energy, actually brain demons whatever else may be claimed, the mere existence of such a statue makes it an idol.

Idolatry is therefore very easy to prove. Since all idols celebrate demons, could idolatry be considered a religion in its own right?

Re: Which religion has the best proof?

Wow, I actually finally agree with Romeo. The Catholic church is, indeed, a proof that Christianity is correct. The Bible prophesied that false churches would arise, and the Catholic church is a perfect example.

For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. 2 Corinthians 11:13-15

Re: Which religion has the best proof?

Great point. I'll also be generous and concede that Judaism has a great deal of proof. Jews worship gold and gold does indeed exist. I've seen it

Re: Which religion has the best proof?

Not only false Churches but false prophets too. One in particular seems pretty much a spin off from the Roman heresy.

REVELATION 12:1-4

I would also have added Judaism in the list, but since the Jain Lady didn't I don't either.

Anyway, Judaism also has some proof, which can be tracked by any Rabbi who claimed to be the Messiah (such as Sabbatai Zevi). The fact that none of them managed to be the Messiah only proves Christianity true.

Re: Which religion has the best proof?

but since the Jain Lady didn't I don't either.

Is that your new guiding light? Her user profile quotes Ecclesiastes chapter three. Here is the passage in context:

A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 A time to get, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 A time to rend, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

For you there is NO time for embracing, no progeny and therefore no future. For Ecclesiastes, and therefore for the Jain Lady, there IS a time for embracing. She didn't choose celibacy and since she didn't you don't either? Can you see the problem here?

We can see easily which religion is best by studying the field of ethics. A professor at a Christian college studies, speaks and writes about ethics. He says Christianity needs a national committee or official body that rules on the ethics of various laws and societal practices. If we did this we would have a more ethical society. Here are some ethical rules he embraces:

1.) Men have superior positions in all relationships and professional standings over women.
2.) Women carry all pregnancies to birth.
3.) Homers do not marry or appear in public.
4.) All marriages adhere to the separation of the races as God intended.

Others can add to this list. The only requirement is the rules are not religious but uphold ethical standards.

Wow! What a namby-pamby. Homosexuals CAN appear in public because stoning them to death in secret is against God's Law. People NEED to see God's Will being obeyed by lawmakers and public servants. This will tighten up society's ethical standards real quick.

[Dr. Anthony J. Toole]

Liberals may disagree with ethical standards, but the point is that without them society will disintegrate into chaos. Thus the way to save civilization is to adopt a strong morality. Christianity, by winning the culture wars, is the strongest. This is basic Peterson - I don't even need to get into the philosophies of Brand or Jones to explain it.
