Reasoning - the path to salvation

Reflect on this thought for a moment - when religions have misled millions and millions centuries after centuries on the age of creation, the idea the sun is moving and the earth is flat, how can they be right at anytime in guiding anyone to impending salvation?

"Science without religion is lame; religion without science is blind." Albert Einstein

On global coercion!

3rd President of the USA
"I have examined all the known superstitions of the word, and I do not find in our particular superstition of Christianity one redeeming feature. They are all alike founded on fables and mythology. Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned. What has been the effect of this coercion? To make one half the world fools and the other half hypocrites; to support roguery and error all over the earth." Thomas Jefferson

The Six Causes

Nothing in this world can be produced without proper application." Mimansa"

"Nothing can be done or made without the expenditure of time." Vaisheshika

"Nothing in this world can be produced without the material cause." Niyaya

"Nothing can be made without the requisite skill, knowledge and thought." Yoga

"Nothing can be made without the definite combination of atoms." Sankhaya

"Nothing can be made without a Maker." Vedanta

This shows that the creation of the world or anything created even by man can never come into being without these six causes.

All or none

In their many years of travels as the true representative of Christian evangelism millions have and will flock to listen to these men even though they have openly admitted not having all the answers. One doesn't have to wonder why, it is due to the fallen state of the intellect, for if Billy and Joel had all the answers, obviously they could not have been preachers attracting such huge crowds and who would have listened them, but a rear few like me?

"Islamism is a reactionary ideology which kills equality, freedom and secularism wherever it is present," the writers added, saying it is nurtured by fears and frustrations.

More money than...

Who are they? They are the self-proclaimed rich philantropists with more money than brains whose every move to save a hungry child, a piece of marsh land or the inflicted makes the media to let the world be aware of their 'noble' cause.
They will not hesitate to spend millions on very extravagant living and some, to look down from space or the highest peak in the world. But what sensible person would put all of the above first, before the soul? You'd think they would spend just as much to know why they are gifted with such great wealth in the first place and if there is a next life to come they wouldn't want it to be any other way. Yes, the idea of self before anything else, maybe construed as a selfish idea but by only the ignorant, when in reality saving the soul is far more beneficial for the planet.
The truth is, if you don't know how to save your own soul, you cannot save anything else and if saving the planet does not materialize, it is still a victory for the soul.

A rational intellect

Preparation: It is often said that no one knows what the truth is, but in fact, if one does, then what intellectual preparation has been made to recognize it?
Ingraining the proper methods of reasoning are mandatory, which at first, the truth may seem very vague to a rational mind, must be followed up by continuous pondering of the subject over and over and asking questions until all doubts are removed.
Human birth is a privilege. One bold and open to a rational discussion of one's faith has the only chance of coming face to face with the truth.

4 stages of the intellect

Static
Functional
Discriminating
Realized

1. A static intellect is when predetermination takes the place of honest inquiry and truth is suppressed. The culprit is misguided religion which leads to fanaticism, barbarism and superstition. This form of credulity is the catalyst of existing adverse and prejudicial conditions that have plagued mankind for nearly 5,000 years.(see heading souls in deep crisis)

2. A functional intellect is when all the fallacies of human reasoning are exhausted, and the light of higher truth could meet with ready response.(see heading under the rise again)
The idea of this kind of reasoning is to replace a closed (brainwashed) mind with an opened one.

3. Discriminating intellect is that in which knowledge based only on words, real or correct knowledge and ordinary knowledge based on sense perception or reasoning are present in a mixed state and the mind alternates between them.

4. A realized intellect is the clarification of memory, when the mind loses its essential (subjectivity), as it were, and the real knowledge of the subtle object alone shines.

FOUR SUBSIDIARY Means of Reasoning

Listening or reading
Thinking/pondering
Rationalizing
Elimination of doubt

Listening or reading most attentively with a calm mind to the lectures of learned people, and more so if the subjects are of divine science, because it is the most abstruse and subtle of all sciences.

Thinking or pondering over of what one has heard or read in retirement and in removing doubts if there are any by questioning the speaker. Questions may even be asked in the middle of the discourse if the speaker and the audience think proper.

Rationalizing is when all doubts are cleared after listening or reading a discourse and thinking over it. Let the inquirer enter into the superior condition to see for oneself (by the help of yoga, deep contemplation or meditation) whether it was the same one had heard and reason out or not.

Self-Realization is the result when the correct knowledge of the nature, properties and characteristics of the desired object is obtained.

Due Reflection

Another thought to reflect on - if it be taken, referring to the biblical account of a 6-day creation, a day represents a 1000 years ("With the Lord, a day is like a thousand years.." (2 Peter 3:8), creation is 6,000 years old, the sun which was created on the 4th day, is only 2,000 years old, the creation of man on the 6th day would mean Adam and Eve only walked this planet a few years ago and since the 7th millenium is not here yet, the Christian God is yet to have his complete day of rest.
On the other hand, if it be taken to mean the regular solar days which is decided by the sun and accepted by all, how could 3 days be accounted for without the sun?
Then again, if it applies to salvaton, the truth is, in the state of perpetual happiness, time flies, meaning 1000 years will be like a day, but if "with the Lord a day is 1000 years", it has to be the opposite, very painful and/or severely boring.

Freedom to express

"A free society must have the scope to debate, criticize, proselytize, insult and even to ridicule belief and religious practices in order to ensure that there is full scope - short of violence or inciting violence or other criminal offences - to tackle these issues." Letter to The Daily Telegraph from Britons opposing religious hatred law.

Civil liberties

Sikh ceremonial dagger in schools
We would have to hope our Charter of Rights is long gone should the religion of the Aztecs ever be resurrected. I am quite sure none of 8 judges of the Supreme Court would want to be subjected to the symbolic religious ritual of human sacrifice.

Those Who Dare

"Vj, I just want u to know, that despite the fact that we disagree here and there, I like you. Fundamentally, you bode no ill will towards anyone, and there's a lot to be said for that." Valender

Galileo, a heretic?

"It is obvious, when Galileo was wrong, the Biblical God had to be in the right, but now that Galileo is right, doesn't that mean the God of the Bible was wrong and still wrong? What more must be said, to prove the Bible is a blatant lie and it's God is false?"
[Discuss]
[Vatican to host Galileo exhibit]

Thrones of tyranny

4th President of the USA
"What influence in fact have Christian ecclesiastical establishments had on civil society? In many instances they have been upholding the thrones of political tyranny. In no instance have they been seen as the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wished to subvert the public liberty have found in the clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate liberty, does not need the clergy." James Madison
He objected to state-supported chaplains in Congress and to the exemption of churches from taxation.

Free speech fight

Crucial Step Towards Sharia Law?
The U.N. now wants to make that Anti-Blasphemy Resolution binding on all member nations. That would make it a crime to critisize religion, in particular Islam. This is a major effort taking place to curb free speech worldwide.
Christopher Hitchens discussed the United Nations Anti-Blasphemy Resolution with Lou Dobbs on February 25, 2009 on CNN. The Resolution, sponsored by the Arab members, might be the crucial next step towards imposing Sharia law in the Western world.
To the above, I quote Thomas Jefferson:
"It is error alone which needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself."

Clear and present danger

"The most heinous and barbaric crime in this world would be to stop an individual to think freely. And when such a crime is legalised in the form of a religion, one can easily imagine how disastrous it can be. Islam is such a religion. Islam imposes a threat to the whole world which is far worse than deforestation, nuclear destruction or AIDS. It is an insidious, devilish disease creeping into the veins of the world. Every individual must realise the destructive and evil nature of this religion, for it eats away at the very foundation of humanity which is an individual's ability to think individually and act accordingly." Zulifar Khan

Keep in mind, everything calculated to advance the dissemination of truth is like poison to begin with........
Ignorance can only be dispelled by the promotion of true knowledge.
COMPARATIVE STUDIES OF RELIGIONS SHOULD SERVE ONLY ONE PURPOSE, THAT OF REVEALING THE TRUTH

"Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities." Voltaire

"Of all values, free speech is the most precious. It is an integral part of free will, which distinguishes between a human and subhuman." Anwar Sheik

"The less you know, the more you believe." Bono. Human birth is a privelege, so be prepared to reject belief!

"The time has come for honest men to denounce false teachers and attack false gods..... the greatest torture in the world for most people is to think." L. Burbank

Just a Good Thought

The terror of constant brainwashing indeed spells hopelessness for billions of souls, but what puzzles me most, is, how can those of very high academic learning lend such unwavering support to these false doctrines in the same way as those with little or no learning at all?
True, the propagation of the truth will gratify a few and offend the rest.

In belief there are doubts
If asked, which moves the sun or earth and the reply is, "I believe it is earth" instead of "it is earth", it means there are doubts.
The road to heaven (happiness) is when we KNOW and that to hell (pain and misery) is when we BELIEVE we know.

Is your religion true or false?
What manufacturer would sell you an automobile and send you the manual some years later? And then ask yourself, what Just God would create a planet of intelligent life and send them divine instructions thousands of years later?

Prayer: What is and who answers it?

Afterlife: See who becomes what

The rational concept of an atheist attacking god is only the tip of the iceberg.

...guided by true knowledge, it is the only 'camera' that can give you the whole picture (truth) of the hidden or invisible.

What it takes to re-discover the truth?
Time, a lots of it, patience, strenuous effort and above all, the intensed desire of the soul, are the established criterias.

Always be inquisitive
"Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear." Thomas Jefferson

Is there a universal definition for truth?

The Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia says, there is no single definition of truth about which the majority of scholars agree, and numerous theories of truth continue to be widely debated. There are many differing claims on such questions as what constitutes truth, how to define and identify truth, what roles do revealed and acquired knowledge play, and whether truth is subjective, relative, objective, or absolute.
It is true, truth cannot be defined by the those who have no idea of what it is, but only by the wise who have made tremendous effort through austerity, study and practice of the correct knowledge. Truth in fact, is all of the above but has stages, one must advance from as low as objective to the highest, absolute. When it is realized it fits a single definition and one universal in nature, that which is in harmony with reasoning and science, and in conformity with the immutable laws of nature. It is not evidence, until it is experienced.

The ruder stage
"But there is another prejudice which is cherished by many scholars evidently under the impression of its being a well-recognized scientific doctrine. It is that in the ruder stages of civilization, when the laws of nature are little known and but little understood, when mankind has not enough of the experience of the world, strict methods of correct reasoning are very seldom observed."

Activity is superior to destiny!
Whether it be in the past, present or in the future most understand destiny to be seemingly inevitable succession of events, especially those very painful and that we are powerless to avoid them. Indeed destiny cannot be changed because it has do with only the past which cannot be changed. Present activity of the acquisition of true knowledge, put into practice, is absolute power!
"The misery which is not yet come can and is to be avoided." Yoga 2:16

Who changed it?
Man is fallible but yet not even one rule is ever changed during play of any of the games we have invented. God is infallible (All-perfect) and yet in His 'game' of human creation, still in progress, the rule (mode of worship) has been changed. Meaning, any revelation, that took place after the very first one, is false. The question is not how, why, where or when the rule has been changed, but who changed it?

Duty towards oneself first
"Water washes off the impurities of the body, truth exalts the mind, knowledge and strict devotion to duty elevate the soul and possession of ideas refines the intellect." Manu (Laws of Manu)

The selfish
It as been well said by a poet, "The selfish when blinded by self-interest mistakes diabolical deeds for good actions, and are not alive to their sinful character."

"Wisdom outweighs any wealth." Sophocles - IF MANKIND ONLY KNEW HOW RARE A COMMODITY THE TRUTH HAS BECOME, THEY WOULDN'T HAVE PUT DIAMONDS AHEAD OF IT.

The Challenge
Truth is one and is for all in all ages, depriving none. True revelation in it's entirety, therefore, must exist from the very beginning of all creations (past, present and future). Now that truth has been clearly defined, it makes it very simple to expose what is false, so athiests and believers, show me how sound your idelology is, by disputing only one of the five tests of the one true religion.

The Danger of Mediators between man & God.
"Slavery and thraldom of the worst kind ever follows in the train of gurudom (prophethood), it utterly enfeebles men morally, intellectually and spiritually." The Last Reformer

Plain fact
"I could not understand how Englishmen with all their boasted civilization, could believe in such a book as the bible." His Life & teachings

Another fact
"It ain't the parts of the Bible that I can't understand that bother me, it is the parts that I do understand." Mark Twain
[Is the Bible an indecent publication?]

The travesty of blind faiths.

In one of her many letters to the Vatican she wrote, "In my soul, I can't tell you how dark it is, how painful, how terrible it is, I feel like refusing god." Mother Theresa	In his book, Jewish History, Jewish Religion Israel Shahak quote one passage from the Hatanya - "All non-Jews, it says, "are totally satanic creatures in whom there is absolutely nothing good."
"If there is a God who has created heaven and earth, it will be unjust on His part if He deprived millions of souls born before Moses, of His divine knowledge." Prof. F. Max Mueller	"Islam is the most violent and intolerant faith that has ever been presented to mankind." Anwar Shaikh ...... More writings of Anwar and his death
"The natural laws of science have not only been worked out theoretically but have been proven also in practice. I cannot then believe in this concept of an anthropomorphic God who has the powers of interfering with these laws." Albert Einstein	"Madness has overtaken a portion of humanity and what they do is nothing short of insanity. We must reach to the world and let everyone know that terrorism is the symptom and the real problem is the ideology behind it." Dr. Ali Sina

A Friendly Word to the Seeker of Truth

The truth offends
Everything calculated to advance the truth is like poison to begin with but like nectar in the end.
"Let him say what is good for another even though it may offend." Light of Truth

Pain & Misery - the natural way
Diseases, languor, doubt, carelessness, laziness, worldly-mindedness, delusion/erroneous views, non-achievement of a stage, instability, these (nine) cause the distraction of the mind and they are the obstacles". Yoga 1:30
"There is no turpitude in drinking wine, eating meat, committing adultery, etc., for that is the natural way of created beings, but abstinence brings great reward." Manu

Conduct
"It is laid down that man should so conduct himself that he might not give pain to and entertain inimical thoughts towards any living being. But in matters which are opposed to the teachings of the one true religion giving of pain becomes a duty." An introduction to the one true revelation

Declaration
This website is to advance the cause of the one true religion and not to hurt the feelings of others or do them harm by bringing fictitious charges against them. For those who are languishing in misery and yearn for happiness and truthfulness, it is time to scrutinize the tenets of all religions. This will further expand their knowledge of religion and by that make it easier to discriminate between right and wrong and embrace the truth. The soul of man possesses that capacity for learning the truth.

Does each Solar or Planetary System has its own God?

Revelation rife with historical references would certainly seem to indicate so.

What if they are to find evidence of intelligent (aliens) life forms as ours on newly discovered planets which is rational to believe, will it not put those who steadfastly disseminate irrational dogmas to shame?

"Revelation is a communication of something, which the person to whom the thing is revealed did not know before. For if I have done a thing, or seen it done,

it needs no revelation to tell me, I have done or seen it done nor enable me to tell it or write it. Revelation therefore cannot be applied to anything done upon earth, of which man is himself actor or witness and consequently all the historical part of the bible which is almost the whole of it, is not within the meaning and compass of the word revelation and therefore is not the word of god." Thomas Paine

Discovery of the lunar space probe before leaving our solar system - another galaxy or solar system as our own, with its own sun, stars and planetary systems.

It is imperative to sound reasoning that they are beyond counting (Galaxy has billions of earth since space is infinite and inhabited such as ours, for nothing can be useless that God has created. Now the question is, if there is one God who is sovereign ruler of all these solar systems, how then, can the Old & New Testamentor the Quran containing specific historical references of one be applied to all?

When speaking the truth becomes a crime, know the death of free thought is imminent.

Christianity, where "common sense is not so common." Voltaire

Rev. Billy Graham - June 2005 (CNN)
Billy: Jesus says, "I AM the Way, the Truth and the Life, NO ONE comes to the FATHER except through ME." John 14:6
Larry King: What about those living in remote regions who never heard of Christ?
Billy: I don't know what will happen to them, I will have to ask the Lord when I get to heaven.
If it is the truth that sets us free, how could Billy be free (get to heaven) without it?
Now Billy Graham finally concedes that Jesus is not the only way which Oprah knew all along.

Larry: Isn't that blind faith?
Joel: We are taught to have faith in the Bible.
CNN - One thing is clear from Joel Osteen's interview: He revealed more about what he doesn't know than about what he claims to know.
A faith that does not have all the answers is blind, for if it does have some, how are we to know they are true.

Airplanes will be falling from the sky, commuter trains, buses, cars, boats, etc. will be crashing causing a global catastrophy in all major cities around the world, sparing only Christians who will be taken up into the clouds." - in reference to the Rapture.
Isn't this Christian God tired of being a bloodthirsty thug, condemning millions of innocent men, women and especially children to such atrocity? Even if the adults are deserving of it, why should the innocent children suffer such an untimely painful death for no fault of their own? You would have to be completely brain-dead to listen to such a brainless ignoramus.
The Just Cause of the Universe is that if any one should suffer it must be the fault of anything else and never by the act of a Just, merciful and compassionate God.
These hypocrites who have all the wrong answers are really good at what they do - lies and fear-mongering.

"Tell a lie often enough, loud enough, and long enough and people will believe you." Adolph Hitler

"Surely, Christians, your cause must be growing desperate, when, to sustain it, you must needs claim for its support so bitter an enemy as Thomas Jefferson -- a man who affirmed that he was a Materialist; a man who recognized in your religion only "our particular superstition," a superstition without "one redeeming feature;" a man who divided the Christian world into two classes -- hypocrites and fools; a man who asserted that your Bible is a book abounding with "vulgar ignorance;" a man who termed your Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, a "hocus-pocus phantasm;" a man who denounced your God as "cruel, vindictive, and unjust;" a man who intimated that your Savior was "a man of illegitimate birth;" a man who declared his disciples, including your oracle, Paul, to be a "band of dupes and impostors," and who characterized your modern priesthood as "cannibal priests" and an "abandoned confederacy" against public happiness." John E. Remsburg

The so-called holy scriptures are worthless and have done more harm than good.

"All men are by nature equal and equally endowed with the faculty of reason that must not be disparaged in favor of blind faith; reason further enables men to perceive scientific truths in an immediate way.
The prophets—these billy goats with long beards—cannot claim any intellectual or spiritual superiority. These billy goats pretend to come with a message from God, all the while exhausting themselves in spouting their lies, and imposing on the masses blind obedience to the "words of the master." The miracles of the prophets are impostures, based on trickery, or the stories regarding them are lies.

The falseness of what all the prophets say is evident in the fact that they contradict one another: one affirms what the other denies, and yet each claims to be the sole depository of the truth; thus the New Testament contradicts the Torah, the Qu’ran the New Testament. As for the Qur’an, it is but an assorted mixture of ‘absurd and inconsistent fables,’ which has ridiculously been judged inimitable, when, in fact, its language, style, and its much-vaunted ‘eloquence’ are far from being faultless. Custom, tradition, and intellectual laziness lead men to follow their religious leaders blindly.
Religions have been the sole cause of the bloody wars that have ravaged mankind. Religions have also been resolutely hostile to philosophical speculation and to scientific research. The so-called holy scriptures are worthless and have done more harm than good, whereas the writings of the ancients like Plato, Aristotle, Euclid, and Hippocrates have rendered much greater service to humanity.
The people who gather round the religious leaders are either feeble-minded, or they are women and adolescents (suggestible). Religion stifles truth and fosters enmity. If a book in itself constitutes a demonstration that it is true revelation, the treatises of geometry, astronomy, medicine and logic can justify such a claim much better than the Qur’an." Zacharia Razi

The debate of evolution vs creation science in schools

US President on Evolution & creation science in schools. It is indeed an excellent idea from the President that they all be taught alongside each other, but under the auspices of which religion should creation science be argued? If it be the Bible it will most certainly spell instant defeat for Christianity, as it has always been at the hands of those who propagate the science of evolution. It is not difficult to figure out, it was this kind of prevailing irrational dogma which gave birth to it in the first place.
All of the world's religion, except one, are not only irrational but unscientific and the prejudicial condition that they have inherited will definitely not permit the one true scientific religion be taught along side the others, for it will not only be a defeat for evolution but religion itself based on the Bible and other irrational scriptures.

"Such veiled attempts to wedge religion - actually just one kind of religion - into science classrooms is a disservice to students, parents, teachers and tax payers." AAAS president Gilbert Omenn.
"There is no science to intelligent design, it's not even a scientifically answerable question." Alan Leshner

True it is, something (creation), out of nothing is indeed magic and definitely not science.
A blunt message, to all creationists and Darwinists - TAKE it, ARGUE it or leave it, THIS is exactly the way it (universe) all began.

Finally, when all doubts are removed, the reward is perpetual happiness
