The documented additions and editing even in Late additions of the Bible like Codex Sinaiticus, pretty much document that the Bible was altered to support Roman Christian doctrine and dogma...
Actually they both may play a role in the destiny of humans as individuals and collectively as well as the nature of existence. Natural Laws injects a certain amount of predestination in everything. Evolution has also narrowed the field on our decision making process by limiting most decisions...
When your dealing with an ancient scripture with a limited world view believers have little choice other than to selectively pick and choose which parts to believe in and how to interpret parts of the Bible to put on the show that the Bible is still relevant as guidance today.
This is very much...
This represents an ancient world view of evil. If I believed in the ancient view of God this would be valid, but I do not believe in the view of the Biblical God that considers these occurrences as products of evil, or vindictive acts by God for retribution for disobedience or acts of evil by...
I do not consider Hare Krishna a modern religion. It is sect of an ancient religion. By far the beliefs are pretty standard ancient Vedic views common to the various forms of Hinduism.
Careful, this is a philosophical conclusion of Ontological Naturalism, and not a conlusion of science, which is based on 'Methodological Naturalism.'
Not likely a serious concern of science. Science to certain extent is the product of enlightenment,

The great diversity of the claims world wide systems of Great traditions do in fact speak for themselves in great diversity and contradictions.
The problem is the 'art to see through the veils' remains to variable with a huge diversity of claims and anecdotal, to stand the more objective...
I am referring to all forms of claims of 'Truth,' in particular religious claims of 'Truth.'
As far as science goes, science is a form of progressive evolving knowledge based on 'Methodological Naturalism.' Nothing is consider 'True' or proven in science. The knowledge of science is based on...
I support the view that the gospels and some of the letters have unknown authors, Paul's letters added and not Paul as the author, gospels were edited and added to in order to support A Hellenist/Roman theology in line with Paul's Hellenist Jewish beliefs. The first gospel Mark in its simplist...
This an important conclusion, and the reason why no single religion, particularly ancient religions fail to provide a universal message throughout time. The spiritual nature of the human nature evolves past ancient worldviews.
First, I believe the problems have changed. Since the 18th and and...
For the Baha'i Faith the concept of color is interesting one. The color of Bab ( made the first delaration of the new age in 1844) was green, but the Baha'i Faith in the Revelation of Baha'u'llah the color appears to be white where the diverse colors of all the religions merge into one white...
Einstein made it clear in many writings he did not believe in God.
It is best to read more of the text as a whole from the letter

Not totally just a point of view. Islam remains violently divided between Sunni and Shi'ite, and Islamic law is variable and inconsistent in terms of addressing the universal world of many different religions, most including Baha'i are not welcome in most Islamic countries.
In the early...
It is easy to acknowledge the problems of crime in Western Countries, and also the intolerance and persecution of minorities in history including Muslims, but . . .
