Prophecy

Why is it sad to restore things to mother earth, worshipping nature is, after all, the oldest religion in the world.If you want any evidence of a false Christ then Jesus is as good an example of a failure as any of the other Christs. Jesus actually didnt achieve a thing, Paul was far more influential and if you want an old testament messiah then David is streets ahead of Jesus.Also,pantheism is not the core of Hinduism. Hinduism is a monotheistic faith, again you post without checking your sources.You also take for granted that we know for sure anything that Jesus was supposed to have said, the fact that Jesus left no writings should make you take any attribution of anything to him with a pinch of salt.Speaking of prophecy let us see the textual and intellectual gymnastics required to deal with this prophecy from the Jesus character.Mat 16:28 I tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom." The same failed prophecy can be found in:Mark 9:1 And he said to them, "I tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God come with power." Luke 9:27 I tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God. The answer you are going to give is totally predictable and has nothing at all to do with what the texts says, hows that for prophecy?

Hey DrummachineChristianity is a sect arising from Judaism, please educate yourself.[This message has been edited by Brian Johnston, 04-12-2003]

Sure, A common misunderstanding of Hinduism emerges from the many Hindu names for God. But instead of actually signifying different "Gods," the names merely signify different aspects of God. Hinduism is monotheistic, just as Christianity and all other religions are. From here: http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art7701.aspHinduism only has one God, who is called Brahman, all other 'gods' are only aspects of the one true god, a bit like the trinity myth. I didn't say Paul was the messiah, I said he was more influential than Jesus. I would say that David is more like the 'warrior-preist' that the messiah is supposed to be. The messiah was to free Israel, if anything Israel was even more persecuted after Jesus died. Could you elaborate on this as I think you are grossly mistaken about the context of these quotes?
