Oh, the God let me know to what community you belong. And what community you prefer to be called as of yours? To what religion you have given the authority to be true, And allowed to call all others heathens and damned? With what rituals and ceremonies you like to be pleased, And to avoid...

I guess my point is neither really hold up in court, just depends on the person..... how much wisdom they have, and love for their fellow man. Wisdom is ability and ignorance inability to acknowledge and accept the truth and not claiming to be the exlusive truth. I believe that who so ever...

Truth should not be hindered or denied under the pretext that a particular religion does not allow it. I do not mean that all religions are basically wrong but humans should keep their hearts open to accept each and every truth that comes in their way. I also do not mean that truth is changeable...

I am an outlaw of so called religions. My mystical poet says: “Is the religion brother of my wife (in an abusive sense) that I should care for?” “Do away with religion. It hampers way to the God. Remove all obstacles between man and the God. Who is this, who intervenes between the lover and the...

My friends I hope you will not mind if I say faith is liberalism and religions are fundamentalism because religions persist on their righteousness while faith does not. Faith draws no boundaries and it has no limits while religions have their demarked boundaries and have limitations. Religions...

Tao, Akbar forgive my impertinence if it seems I speak for you, its a delicate line I tread, and my intention is but to clarify based on what I 'think' I know. If I in any way am inacurate I appologise now. Brian I think you have to veiw Akbars' post in the context of his spititual isolation...
