1. Prince Philip movement; 2. Haile Selassie the Emperor: Neither claimed to be Jesus, The Son of The One True God.
3 Mr. Joseph Smith – did not claim to be divine, had been previously convicted of deception. Matthew 7:16
4. Scientology. L Ron Hubbard – did not claim to be divine. He said, “If you want to make money, invent a religion.”
5. This is Islam. They are having many many eyewitnesses for the miracles that were performed by Mohammed. Performing a miracle does not make you a deity – in fact, if you don’t believe in Jesus, and you do a miracle, it is clear that the so-called “miracle” was done by Satan..
Anyhow, all of the above people are either dead or close to it. Jesus lives!
7. Hinduism has hundreds of witnesses more miracles but we are not knowing the exact number, no. Yes, it is hundreds and I am citing them. "He showed His heavenly powers in the house of Srivasa in the presence of hundreds of His followers, who were mostly well-read scholars." -> Well first this is not Hinduism: it refers to the Bhakti movement. The Bhakti movement’s fairy story of Krishna’s birth is a straight rip-off of Jesus’s birth and his preaching at the Temple aged 12 years, but with strange Indian words thrown in. It was invented by someone who had eaten a bad curry about 700 years ago. It is to Hinduism what Roman Catholicism was to Jesus’s Words – a travesty. But then Hinduism with blue elephants is a travesty – so Bhakti movement is a travesty of a travesty of a travesty.
8. - 9. Another tie. Voodoo and Wicca. There are many people who are telling that they have suffered from the black magic of voodoo and that it is then real. Yes. And the love potions of the Wicca have been helping many, yes. - > These are the ignorant delusions of (i) primitive peoples and (ii) ugly women in need of a husband, both of whom merely attribute natural events as evidence of magic.
10. Taoism. A collection of chink fairy tales and homespun philosophy that was good 2000 years ago but has not kept pace with Biblical knowledge and Science
11. Confucianism: See Taoism “Confucius say “I’m dead.”
12 -13. This is last one and it is a tie. It is Pastafarianism and Jedi knights. -> There is a little more to a religion than merely saying it is a religion otherwise there would be thousands of religions.
There is only room for one true religion, and Landover has been granted the sole rights by God Himself.

I am so sick of Catholics spewing their heresies and acting like they are in any way related to the contents of the Bible. I mean, really. There's more evidence for evilution than there is for Catholicism. Yes, that inbred racist Nazi fool Charles Darwin is more credible than any Pope. That really ought to tell you how stupid and retarded Popery is.

Greetings white people!
Tonight I have been to a meeting of the Student Committee to Drive Off Donald Trump and very much was accomplished. All of the investigative committees and action committees and all of the sub committees had meetings which were very successful. Presentations were made and I myself spoke of the dangers of white nationalism and possible re-enslavement of the Black people. I was well received. We signed some petitions and then unanimously passed a resolution to continue to drive off Donald Trump.
Anyway I felt it is my duty and obligation to inform my white friends that Jah Rastafari is one with Jah as Jesus is one with Jah and they are very much like brothers from different mothers like my brother Archibald and I. The white people were not able to catch Ras Tafari and kill him like they killed Jesus so he is everliving. He can be found even now in a remote monastery in the highlands of Ethiopia.
Jah Guide!
Trevor
Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: Extol him that rideth upon the heavens By his name JAH, and rejoice before him.-Psalms 68:4

Ms. Shah, would you mind if, as answer to your list, if i show you which, in my opinion, are the religions with the less proof?
13 Judaism: They have some truth, since they have the Tanakh (aka Old Testament). However, instead of adding the New Testament to their collection of texts, they decided that the Talmud and Kabbalist texts are more holier. Let's also not forget that they are one of the only religions who don't believe the Christ.
11-12 Black Hebrew and Nation of Islam: Those two sticks perfectly togher. They are both Hamcentric movements who claims blacks were the original race because they misinterpred the Bible.
10 Druze: They are just some wannabe Jews who are actually Gnostic Muslim, but identify as neither of them. We know that Jethro existed, but nowere in the Bible he founded the Druze order.
9 Shintoism: It is just a mythology, and most of them are Buddhists or self proclaimed otakus anyway.
7-8 Buddhism and Jainism: I put thoose two toghether cause their doctrine is basically the same: ripping off Hinduism and changing some of its teachings. If there was already Hinduism, what's the point of theese two?
6 Bahai: The religion was nothing more than an attemp of the Brits (who all other european knows they are evil) to impose a new religion on the iranian people. What makes it even less credible is the fact that it has no sacred texts.
5 Damanhur: For anyone who don't know them: they are an Italian cult who looks like the wicked child of Wicca and Scientology. Its members engage themselves in occult rituals and worships every God that the mankind knows. I guess it speaks for itself. The only good thing of this cult is their beautyful Temple of Mankind.
4 Jehovah's Witnesses: They believe (with no biblical support) that Jesus Christ was St. Michael the Archangel. I doubt their leader even believed what he preached, since he was buried under a pyramid.
3 Seven Days Adventists: They believed various false prophets, including a woman (1 Corinthians 14:34), and all of them failed to predict the End of The World.
2 Asatru: Don't let the name decieve you, it is not true at all. They are nothing more than a bunch of Dungeon & Drugons roleplayers who worship characters from the Edda's of Bishop Snorri Sturluson, with no belief that they exist at all.
1 Atheism: Considering that there alot of religions with numberous denominations, there is no way atheists could be right about denying God and other spiritual things.
Feel free to correct me if there is something wrong. Amen.

I'm very curious to see what Harsha will have to say seeing her Jainism on the list!

It's not clear whether you consider catholicism to have a valid spiritual existence (in the way atheists do not) and if so whether it's different from protestants and non-conformists. Perhaps if you could provide a definition for "spiritual" we'd be better able to respond.
Jehovah's Witnesses and 7th-Day-Adventists we agree are unmitigated heretics, along with their Unitarian and Christian Scientist bedfellows. We have been praying that you'll find Christ and understanding the error of cults is an important first step. Keep holding HIS hand.
In Christ.

Yes, the course will be starting in August but I am preparing in advance. I am hoping to become a certified teacher in RME that is religious and moral education. I am also a strong and independent woman working for an independent Scotland under the Brexit duress. Yes, I am hoping that I am not offending you but this will be a long post, yes. I have now been studying all of the great world religions in detail and some of the modern ones regarding their reliability and evidence and I have been constructing a list of these religions and their proof in an order that is descending and here is the list. Yes. The best religion is on top with number one and so on. I am very happy to have finished this. Yes.
1. Prince Philip movement. It is the most reliable of all religions, yes it is, and their god, prince Philip duke of Edinburgh my home town is demonstrably alive and there is much more documentation of him than of any other deity. His followers can really meet him and he has been sending them his photos.
2. This was a close call. Yes, but I am choosing Rastafarianism. They are thinking that Haile Selassie the Emperor was Jesus come again and there is much more documentation of him than of any other deity excluding prince Philip. His followers can be looking at his photos and other things. Yes.
3. This was as I was writing a close call. Number 3 is Mormonism. They have the signed eyewitness testimonials of 11 men of good standing and a woman, who must have been strong and independent. A person would not be signing a document about the gold plates and Mr. Joseph Smith with his face being buried in his hat unless they really were seeing it, yes.
4. Scientology. We are being given the expert account of many celebrities such as Mr. Tom Cruise who vouch for the good nature of this religion, yes, and they are really martyrs as people are persecuting them because of this, yes. The downside is that Scientology is not seeming to be online with any science. No.
After number 4, I was using the number of eyewitnesses as a surrogate for real evidence.
5. This is Islam. They are having many many eyewitnesses for the miracles that were performed by Mohammed. They are in the Hadith. I am giving you an example. Al-Bara: "We were one-thousand-and-four-hundred persons on the day of Al-Hudaibiya (Treaty), and (at) Al- Hudaibiya (there) was a well.". This is 1400 people who were seeing their prophet make water, yes.
6.-7. This is a tie because of some lack of precision. It is Christianity and Hinduism. Christianity has 513 eyewitnesses, a Cephas and 12 disciplines and 500 unnamed people. We cannot be knowing who the 500 people were so they are not presenting themselves as well as in Mormonism. It is in 1 Corinthians 15:4–8. Yes. Hinduism has hundreds of witnesses more miracles but we are not knowing the exact number, no. Yes, it is hundreds and I am citing them. "His secretary Murari Gupta has given an eyewitness account of how He showed His heavenly powers in the house of Srivasa in the presence of hundreds of His followers, who were mostly well-read scholars." It is a tie with christians as these Hindus were scholars who were being more reliable than laymen.
8. - 9. Another tie. Voodoo and Wicca. There are many people who are telling that they have suffered from the black magic of voodoo and that it is then real. Yes. And the love potions of the Wicca have been helping many, yes.
10. Taoism. It has no evidence but it can be proven if someone who is practicing it loses her urges for sex, eating and sleeping. I was not able to locate these persons but that is not meaning that they would not be there. Yes, they could.
11. Confucianism. I was not able to locate real proof that Confucius was real, it is the same as with your Jesus. So it is 50-50 if he was. I am not trying to offend any of you by doubting the existence of Confucius but I am only saying that there is insufficient documentation.
12 -13. This is last one and it is a tie. It is Pastafarianism and Jedi knights. We are reading documentation of both that are stating that these were invented as jokes. Yes, I am not saying that they are not true, no, but, yes, I am hoping that I am not offending you if I am writing that they are admitting the joke themselves. Yes. I am really thinking that I might be offending you but I am really enjoying watching the Star Wars Movies, so please do not be offended by my skepticism about these religions.
I am thinking that this is not a complete list, yes, but it is well-researched and I am expanding it with references and presenting it as coursework later this summer. Yes. This was Harsha Shah.

First of all, this is NOT a debate forum. We're right and you're wrong, according to Jesus and the Holy Word of God. Please read THIS thread before making an even bigger fool of yourself.
Secondly, while the internets might seem to be "free" to you, this particular corner of the internets is a privately owned Christian forum. The rights you have on this forum are listed HERE. Please contact a Pastor immediately if you feel that any of your rights have been violated.
Finally, your unsaved opinions or tantrums are not even slightly of interest to us. We follow the Holy Word of God TO THE LETTER, and make no apologies for that. One of the most important commandments in the Bible tells us to avoid unsaved scum such as yourself. You wandered in here uninvited, and unwelcome .
If you want to debate people, THIS is the place to go.
Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.
And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself.
I will pray that the Holy Spirit enter you and chase the demons out of your rectum and let Jesus fill you with His Grace. If you use your God-given free will to reject Christ and His temporary death on the cross for my sins, then you are sending yourself to hellfire.
Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:
Hypocrites (Matthew 24:51), The Unforgiving (Mark 11:26), Homosexuals (Romans 1:26, 27), Fornicators (Romans 1:29), The Wicked (Romans 1:29), The Covetous (Romans 1:29), The Malicious (Romans 1:29), The Envious (Romans 1:29), Murderers (Romans 1:29), The Deceitful (Romans 1:29), Backbiters (Romans 1:30), Haters of God (Romans 1:30), The Despiteful (Romans 1:30), The Proud (Romans 1:30), Boasters (Romans 1:30), Inventors of evil (Romans 1:30), Disobedient to parents (Romans 1:30), Covenant breakers (Romans 1:31), The Unmerciful (Romans 1:31), The Implacable (Romans 1:31), The Unrighteous (1Corinthians 6:9), Idolaters (1Corinthians 6:9), Adulterers (1Corinthians 6:9), The Effeminate (1Corinthians 6:9), Thieves (1Corinthians 6:10), Drunkards (1Corinthians 6:10), Reviler (1Corinthians 6:10), Extortioners (1Corinthians 6:10), The Fearful (Revelation 21:8), The Unbelieving (Revelation 21:8), The Abominable (Revelation 21:8), Whoremongers (Revelation 21:8), Sorcerers (Revelation 21:8), All Liars (Revelation 21:8)

Perhaps we have different ideas about what constitutes a miracle
Why would the reference you used attributed to Al-Bara concerning an event over two centuries earlier suggest anything out of the ordinary? Perhaps my imagination is deficient but I can't make out anything miraculous. You wrote
They are having many many eyewitnesses for the miracles that were performed by Mohammed.
They are in the Hadith. I am giving you an example. Al-Bara:
"We were one-thousand-and-four-hundred persons on the day of Al-Hudaibiya, and at Al-Hudaibiya
there was a well."
or words to that effect and, regardless of what the prophet was doing or how many people were watching him, for the life of me I can't see how there being fourteen hundred people who undoubtedly would become thirsty at some stage all in one place where there was a well is anything other than commonplace. Where else would they congregate?

There is a rumor that now their false god is dead, those savages are planning to transfer their allegiance from the father to the son, Prince Charles. This disgusts me! When Jesus temporarily died, True Christians™ did not go rooting around in His family tree looking for some close blood relative to replace Him.
It's also dumb. Ruddy Prince Charlie is a scarlet-faced man in his 70s who has never done an honest day's work in his life and hasn't yet mastered buttoning his own shirt, putting toothpaste on a brush or opening a soft-boiled egg. He surely can't last long - if his staff went on strike for a week he'd be found naked, starving and raving in the palace grounds and probably fall into a lake. In no time they will need to replace him with a younger, more functional model.
Might this be an appropriate time for a senior pastor to visit wherever it is that these people live?
Vaccinated by the love of Jesus!!!

I don't know if i should count it as a "proof of a religion", but Chinese superstitions worship this deceased general as a "god".
There is of course alot of historical witnessing of this man (from various Chinese dynasties and from the Japanese), pherhaps even more than there is about Jesus. However, only Jesus declared himself to be God when he was around. Everyone else was declared to be "divine" after his death.

So that's why you're such an expert Romeo, he's one of your Catlick demigods. It's no surprise that an overtly Satanic shrine like the one you posted is to be found in the fag capital of the United States, and second in the world only to your Vatican.
Christianity has the best proof because it accepts all of the Bible. Judaism has the second-best proof because it accepts some of the Bible. Islam has third best proof because it accepts bits and pieces of the Bible. No other religion has any proof whatsoever.

I would also say that Bahai fits in the fourth place, but it needs evidence for Zoroastrianism, Hinduism and Buddhism. And the cult don't even practice their doctrines.
Speaking of a similar cult, i would also mention the followers of the Norwegian Baron Roman von Ungern-Sternberg.
This man was so confused wherever to be a Lutheran, a Russian Orthodox, a Buddhist, a Mongol Shaman... to the point of attending all ceremonies of these religions. He is still worshipped by some who thinks that he is both a reincarnation of a Mongolian "god" and Genghis Khan. Yet, he never reincarnated again in this world.
I feel a bit bad about all the sinners that have to share their place in Hell with this crazy man, be it commies, jews and his own followers. But i cannot judge God's decisions.

Catholicism requires to believe, not just in the Bible, but in the Church tradition as well.

I know you have a very unusual version of The Bible, more like the Greek version in vogue around the time of assorted Kings Antiochus I – XIII. Perhaps the geography contributed idols to your own tradition? Anyway, with so many "variant" texts interwoven I doubt that a clear understanding could emerge, tradition or no tradition.
Indeed, the lore you've inherited seems utterly at variance with the Biblical record – except insofar as it's tagged "abominable" by God when mentioned. He does describe aspects of your tradition throughout the text, explicitly: there can be no doubt when you see it as I have when visiting popish houses unawares.
“Oh, I just want to pop in here and say ‘Hi!’ to [a grandparent] you can come in.”
we enter the house
“Hello [the grandparent is named] we've just popped in for some cake and here: I've brought you a [gift] you like this one don't you?”
idols candles bottles of dubious liquid everywhere, might as well be in ancient Babylon
“Oh hello [names my friend] lovely to see you. [looks at gift] Yes, I really like that [gin, pipe tobacco, smelling salts, whatever] how thoughtful!” Others have found themselves in the same situation. It's so jarring even abandoned wretches notice; often the first bauble is right there when you walk in and it's so alien, including for the wretches as I'm sure ex-wretches will confirm, then in the room where [in this example a (friend's) grandparent] sits, more! – and idiotic Romish prayers in tacky plastic frames, as if the words were somehow a magic spell warding off evil. Utter nonsense!! In reality of course they're attracting demons, very much along the lines of a Buddhist prayer wheel or those crazies who hang CD's of heathen chants in sunlight for protection– but the effect is much the same I suppose.
They're all traditions; how do you distinguish?

Indeed, the lore you've inherited seems utterly at variance with the Biblical record – except insofar as it's tagged "abominable" by God when mentioned. He does describe aspects of your tradition throughout the text, explicitly: there can be no doubt when you see it as I have when visiting popish houses unawares. “Oh, I just want to pop in here and say ‘Hi!’ to [a grandparent] you can come in.”
we enter the house
“Hello [the grandparent is named] we've just popped in for some cake and here: I've brought you a [gift] you like this one don't you?”
idols candles bottles of dubious liquid everywhere, might as well be in ancient Babylon

Well, there are Traditions of God and traditions of Men. I mean, is Thanksgiving (and its related consumeristic holiday of Black Friday) a Tradition of God or of man?
