Religions....
« on: August 28, 2002, 11:22:51 AM »
I consider Christianity, Judaism, and Islam more or less the same religion. Same god is same religion as far as I care.                          

So thats one.

Then we have Buddhism.  

So thats two.

Then we have Hinduism.

So thats three.

Are those the only three significant religions in the world?

Well, I'd replace Christianity with Catholicism...

I think Catholicism is far larger than Christianity. Baptists, Roman Catholics, etc.

I prefer older Italian religions because they are more plausible, but we need a couple new gods for the internet age.  I can't imagine mercury delivering all these electronic messages.

Christianity is the root of the other two

Catholicism = Roman Catholics - same thang

Baptist is just another flavor of  Christianity

as is any other organized religion based on the teachings of Jesus & the Bible

I thought Catholicism was the all-encompassing sect of Jesus & the Bible?

That's how I was taught?

buddah was born a hindu . there are alot of similaritys between jesus reform of jewdaism into christianity and buddas transformation from hindu to mono or non theistic buddism.

technicaly buddism dosent have a god in the christian or jewish or muslem sense of the word. so your back to two. the jewdao god and the hindu god(s).

Don't forget those that spend their days of rest tuning engines and tightening suspensions.
