They thus grow up to revere her as a mother. And why wouldn't they ? Wouldn't you be in debt to someone who sustains your life as an infant (or, indeed, at any time in your life span) ?

Now we know that it was the work of sick musslims that committed the world-wide cow slaughters sacrificed unto their polytheistic god(demons)!

Your land is truly defiled, friend!

Leviticus
18:24 Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you: 18:25 And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.

Re: Why is the Bible superior ?

The cow nourishes these motherless infants with her own milk.

Friend, that is a henious and evil practice, the images of infants being forced to suck on a cow's teet is not a holy image but rather, the stuff of nightmares.

You people have some seriously disturbed and practices, friend. It is no wonder that musslims are known for beastiality.

Sickening, just sickening.

That is another form of making your children walk through flames to molech!

Leviticus
18:21 And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.

Why are cow-molesters invading our peaceful, friendly forum? Don't they have some barnyard fetish site they can go to?

Re: Why is the Bible superior ?

The cow is the source of the ghee with which the Brahmanas grow the sacrificial fires of their yagnas - without her milk, we would have no ghee, so dear to Agni, the Lord of Fire. Without Agni, we would not be able to make our sacrificial offerings to the Gods. So, yes, the cow was dear to my ancestors.

But the cow is far more important to us in this day and age for a very practical reason. Every year, millions of women die in childbirth in parts of rural India. The cow nourishes these motherless infants with her own milk. Thus, she becomes as a mother to these children who would die without her milk to sustain their lives. They thus grow up to revere her as a mother. And why wouldn't they ? Wouldn't you be in debt to someone who sustains your life as an infant (or, indeed, at any time in your life span) ?

Re: Why is the Bible superior ?

Looks like the only one mongering "my way or the highway" is YOU. Case of the coal calling the kettle black when you complain that Islam does not recognize any other marga to Heaven aside from itself !

I'm not complaining about Islam, I'm asking you to explain your assertion that all deities are "expressions of the same force".

How many times must I ask you the same question?

Most religions declare that theirs is the only way to Heaven. If all their prophets are influenced by the same "force", and all their deities are expressions of the same "force", why do nearly all of them get it wrong by declaring themselves the only way to Heaven, and often demanding that followers of other religions be shunned or even executed?

Please answer the question. Thank you.

Re: Why is the Bible superior ?

Yes, Islam denies Jesus' divinity, and says Christians are all going to Hell, along with all the Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, atheists, and all other non-Muslims. I'd say that's not accepting Christianity as "one of the ways" to Heaven, wouldn't you?


Because Jesus said so! What part of "It's a key point of the Scriptures" don't you comprehend?

John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

And that's not the only place:

John 3:16-18

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

This means that Hindus, Muslims, Jews, atheists, Buddhists, Jains, Sikhs, etc. are all damned because they don't believe in Jesus.

Re: Why is the Bible superior ?

Then, pray explain this :


"This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you." (John 15:12-27).

Read John 15 in context. To whom is Jesus speaking?

His followers. Not "everybody".

He is commanding His followers to love one another.

[Rev. M. Rodimer]

Re: Why is the Bible superior ?

Do you read ? I mentioned here already that there is NO SUCH ASSERTION in the Gita.

Do you read? I specifically listed three other religions when we started this discussion, not Hinduism.

Islam recognizes three Prophets - Moses, Jesus and Mohammed himself. That would seem to me that there is some acceptance in Islam of the God of Moses and the God of Jesus.

Yes, Islam denies Jesus' divinity, and says Christians are all going to Hell, along with all the Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, atheists, and all other non-Muslims. I'd say that's not accepting Christianity as "one of the ways" to Heaven, wouldn't you?

As for Christianity - you tell me why you feel that it is your way or the highway, since you all are the supposed expert on the religion here ?

How many times must I say the same thing before it sinks in, that these major world religions (far larger than Hinduism) all say they are the one and only way to Heaven? They can't all be right, if they say they are the only way.

Therefore, why does your "force", which you claim to be the same "force" in all religions, get it consistently wrong? Why doesn't every religion say in its Scriptures that every other religion is equally fine and dandy?

Re: Why is the Bible superior ?

So from what I been reading on this website racism is a everyday normal thing for people of this church? You must have been cursing when god put obama into power

Landover is totally against racism. We are always open to negroes wanting to throw off the curse of Ham, for example. We take the same charitable attitude towards gays who want to renounce sodomy.

Obama the Kenyan communist doesn't need to be mentioned

Re: Why is the Bible superior ?

Question: Why is the Bible Superior?
Answer: Because it is the inerrant Word of God(c).

Friend, read the KJV. God wants us to follow His Word if we want to have any chance of going to Heaven.

[Redeemed Papist]

Re: Why is the Bible superior ?

Yet again you're on about our rabbi. You seem determined to be a bigot and to cause offence. We're not Jews and neither was Jesus.



What do you have against people following their Lord's message?

You seem to like John 15

John 15:1-6
15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 15:2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 15:3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. John 15:4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 15:5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. 15:6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

Can you see how heathens will burn? These are the words of Jesus. Without Him you can do nothing and you will burn.

By the way, read John 15 in context and you will see He is commanding His disciples to stick together and expect persecution, which is why He is commanding them to love each other. Note He does not tell them to love those who do not believe and who will burn.

Try not cherry picking. It's far more enlightening.

Re: Why is the Bible superior ?

You should read the Bible before you go trying to tell others what it contains.

Then, pray explain this :


"This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you." (John 15:12-27).


I just spent some time going over the material on the main website and I am beginning to suspect that this is no Christian forum. Are you all for real ? Is this site a spoof ? The only way I can wrap my head around the hate spewed here and some of the other stuff thrown out at the reader is that this is all a parody. I checked the Ladies Club members out and some of their introductions make no sense. Something about one lady not sharing her wealth, about another killing one's elderly husband ...a third being lodged in a mental health facility ?

There is also a frequent mention of homosexuality here - almost to the point of obsession, I would say. If this is not a parody, then you all are really outrageous and evil (especially to gloat over how you got a widow to donate money to your Church after killing her baby).

Not Christians at all and your Rabbi would be ashamed of the lot of you. Many of you need to be fished off the gene pool, too. Your cruelty is unbelievable.

[Redeemed Papist]

Re: Why is the Bible superior ?

Is it on page one of the "Trolling Christians" manual to persistently refer to Jesus as a rabbi?

The Bible is superior because it's the one and only route to heavenly salvation.

All these ridiculous personal opinions you have that every religion worships the same god and all ways to do so are equally valid is deist new age bunkum. All the false religions claim theirs is the only way to truth. All of them must be wrong because Jesus specifically stated there is no other way to Heaven but through Him.

Therefore the Bible is superior. End of debate.

[Bag of bad creepers]

Re: Why is the Bible superior ?

Then perhaps you should get informed about them before you tell us what they say and what they mean.

Now, answer the question. If they are all from the same "force", why do they all specifically say that their way is the one and only way to Heaven, and all others lead to unending torment? Why can't they get it right?

Do you read ? I mentioned here already that there is NO SUCH ASSERTION in the Gita. In fact, there are multiple margas (ways or methods) in Sanatana Dharma by which one many attain the Supreme Godhead. We are a polytheistic religion, so we don't condemn the worship of any devata, regardless of whether such a God is one's own or not ! The more the merrier for us, in fact.

Islam recognizes three Prophets - Moses, Jesus and Mohammed himself. That would seem to me that there is some acceptance in Islam of the God of Moses and the God of Jesus.

As for Christianity - you tell me why you feel that it is your way or the highway, since you all are the supposed expert on the religion here ?

All roads lead to Rome, regardless of whether you like it or not.

Do you think your "force" just wants to see people slaughter each other, and live in terror of damnation? What kind of sick monster do you worship, anyway?

You should pose these questions to the individual who claimed that God wants one to rejoice at the Holocaust.
