    Is that a vote for Buddhism, then.

    Perhaps you should look into the concept of Faith.

    It is a provable fact that Jesus did live. The resurrection is what cannot be proven.

    If your an evolution man than you are a big fan of things that are "hardwired." Ask yourself why the concept of God or a higher being is something that is "hardwired" into us.

    There is no proof of evolution either. There is no proof of Anything.

    Most of your scientific beliefs are only theories. Until something is proven to be untrue it is as such.

    The fact that people of Faith take the resurrection as truth does not make it a croc. That is something you are dealing with.

    You didnt bother to add anything to the discussion other than your disgust for Christians. Big surprise...and quite original.

    I've no disgust what-so-ever for any true religion, what I was saying is that I find it unbelivable.
    Tell me what is the proof that "Jesus", the son of "God", born to the "Virgin Mary" ever really existed. Or is it in that picture "the last super" It's like we have been told a story for so many years we believe it.

    You'll have to do the research for yourself(if you can stand it). The Jesus of the bible was a real person-that is a fact.

    Whether or not you believe in the virgin birth and the like is not for me to convince.

    What is a/the true religion?

    I'll assume you believe in a God because you used the upper-case G.
    Also you use the word WE. You must believe in some higher power,no?

    I don't believe Da Vinci was alive during biblical times. It is a painting,nothing more.

    I'd like to know what you do find believable. Do you believe that you and I are the result of a single hydrogen atom in an ooze developing lungs and legs?

    Get back to me.

    The name Leprechaun is derived from the Irish leath bhrogan (shoemaker) so that makes them fact........lol

    Off topic! Come on if you wish to find out what Christianity is or was or meant to be, then start a new thread.

    Perhaps best would be first to to look to countries as Tibet to see what can happen. Which means, it's very difficult but not impossible. First it's important in Buddhism to work on oneself also to learn to respect all life forms. Important of all, is to work on your own thoughts and so meditation is an important if not the most important part of Buddhism. You need to create a heaven in your mind while you have still have the energy and time to do so. Also, there is only one Buddhist Nation, it's called the Sangha. You still have some time don't waste it.
