What did the following get right? Muslims Hindus Buddhists Other...[/quote] Generally speaking, that there is an "Other," something beyond what our five senses tell us. This mitigates against a strict materialist view of the universe, which is the primary error of the West in the 21st century. This is the obvious and most basic starting point for the anything else, e.g. the Golden Rule, which I'll leave to better minds than my own to address.

But I will say Muslims have some of the truth in that they worship one God, and though its debateable some would say they worship the same God... I won't get into that debate though....

Templari Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Muslims: Did an awesome job of taking over the holy land and denying Christ's divinity, and continue to kill converts Hindus: Still killing converts, and deny objective truth Budhists: Im not sure, but despite all there whimpy peace talk im pretty sure many buddhist too are killing Christians, and deny objective truth tacos, so very tasty and good for you,: I dont know how many good spanish and Latin Christians have died eating that poor food... probably deny objective truth Yes, Jesus sure has much love these other religions for. Actually speaking from a more helpful point of view, if you want to know what is good so you can convert them, the Muslims supposedly have great devotion towards our Lady, and actually have faith and care about their religion, so that is a good place to start. Hindu's and buddhists are worse off because they deny objective truth, and deny the self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
