In what way does sunrise or sunset not reflect the reality of the sun Ising over or falling below the horizon? !! I have no idea about what you're trying to say.

Absolutely! And anyone without any faith in any god should also seek justice for all, love, mercy and more. Well some of us don't actually believe in any theistical gods but we must also bring all acts of injustice before our courts.... absolutely.

Huh? The words 'sunrise and sunset' seem to be accurate in our language. Or did you think that there is a better expression for these events 'in English'? And any corrections on titles are not 'renamings', but rather......corrections.

Yes..... I agree with all of that. IMO Netanyahu and his government have committed dreadful international crimes. Some people do seem to believe that I would thus support the terrorist organisation of Hamas because of my above opinion. No!

Where is there any joy in such a life? I enjoy having a hot drink and piece of cake with my wife, a joy to be sure.......not allowed?

Hello! Your advise could apply to any people who run up debts of any kind. But alcohol is enjoyed by many people in moderation. What would you say to those people who have used alcohol for many years without dependence or harm?

Oh! They sounded like fun! Yes! At that time! Although as you say, many are still good today. The Mosaic Laws were just a blueprint for the survival of any people...... The Abrahamic God offered them to anybody, it is reported in the bible. I love the 'You must build a parapet around roofs'...

Very interesting,.... Thank you. I used to visit a US Forum with lots of rather extreme White (oh yes!) Christians and if homosexuality, adultery or certain other breeches of Torah Laws were mentioned the howls of condemnation and hoped for punishments (by mankind as well as God) were many...

Thankyou for that.....I was thinking of Oscar Wilde who died not long after his release from prison...He had served 2 or 3 years with hard labour for Homosexuality. It weakened him to his death.

My real name is Peter! 🤭

Dunno.......... I don't know what caused the super-nova which producted the atoms that would form our solar system, but it sure exists!

Yes, I think so, in as much as God is everything or force that exists, as well as anything else. The lot.

I must 'google' GIGO.... :) You know...... reason can sometimes sort rubbish out.....just sometimes. That's the problem! Bahauallah was the prophet for Bahai. Where his Grandson or Great Grandson or UHJ 'explain' their opinion about Bahai, or about what Bahauallah meant then I lose interest...

You could have been talking about Christianity there...... ;)

No Thomas, my focus is towards how Christianity perceives a few of these laws, and how it thinks about Sin. But it could also be focused towards Islam and Baha'i, you know.

If I could reply to the above question with regard to any dilemma, surely the only guidance within Baha'i has to go directly to the writings left by Bahauallah? In my opinion the (translated) words of Bahauallah are sometimes a bit distorted by Bahá'ís telling 'what they really mean'.??

Back to the question of 'real meaning of sin'...... I think that sin was any breaking of any of the laws, and sin would lead to failure of one sort or another, a TEMPORAL rather than spiritual loss. If that is applied to any of the laws then such a loss could be identified as being either a...

Thank you, Thomas.

Hmmmm....... Those who have personal opinions about Baha'i which do not align with Baha'i are mostly skeptics, Sen....not cynics. Baha'i is not a wholly spiritual movement, and its actions together with Baha'i writings have led me to this place. And so I cannot dismiss the belief that In a...

It was my absolute wish to launch this thread for anybody to read....generally. Can somebody please out it back?
