Hello All, long time since I've been on here and good to see the debates still going strong!
Just a quick question on a type of praying I've seen (from Footballers especially).
Somebody told me that it's "haram" to look up at the sky when praying to Allah. Is this correct? If yes then can you...
Very true.
I think the Victorians were looking for the original language spoken by the peoples of the world centering round the story of the Tower of Bable (one CANNOT disassociate Chritianity from any discussion on this subject).
And found the oldest (discovered at the time) to be Sanskrit...
I belive Krisna was born 500 bc there are a lot of Hindus who think it was further back. I think 500 is the excepted time.
You'll find all the numbers on here http://www.religioustolerance.org/chr_jckr1.htm
I'd be interested to know your views.....being born a Hindu I've always been struck...
MMM....sorry for the C&P, (and for reviving such an old thread!)I have to take issue. Brian with all of these similarities (below) I'm surprised more people aren't more open to it....let alone the lingustical simmilarity between the word Christ and Krisna.....just a considence??...maybe but an...
Hi All
thank you for the various qoutes and thoughts....much to ponder.....I've come across another quote which I think will add to this thread.

Dear Friends
I was reading the Islamic section of this site and was struck by one Muslims view on how we Hindu’s regard God and the forms in which we have decided to represent the One Truth.
Please read.
So how many of us belive that there are liturally millions of Gods as insisted by...
Thanks Mansio
I take what you say...can you tell me what these peoples called themselves and their Pagan faith please?
Thanks

If Homosexuality is an illness and the comments towards it on this thread are insulting towards kiwiman and his motivations and the "act itself" is dispised by the contributers on this thread.
In this light does Islam allow sick people to be hated like this? If so where is it written
Peace...
Hello All
I've studied this and nobody acually knows what the specific religion before Islam was in Saudi Arabia as the athorities do not allow any scientific archelology and is left to Islamic scholers to brand the previous faith as "Pagen" and primative. It would be interesting to see what...
I have to admit that once I'd actually thought about it, it does belong here too...Hinduism is a wide church and (in my opinion) is Pagan in nature.
I know very little of Tantra apart from lovely mandala's and Sting(!). So I look forward to the replies.
Peace :)
