Do all Religions Teach the Same Thing?

Most religions are good… They all teach similar things. They all have similar beliefs with Christianity. Incarnation and life after death. Good stuff! Don’t they all pursue moral standards and guides to walk with a Higher Power?

They certainly don’t lead people to do the horrible things that we humans tend to want to do…You know, our backstabbing gossiping lying cheating murderous ways. I have never really studied Witchcraft or darker religions like Satanism but I suspect even they don’t condone such wicked things that us human’s get into…

“Tho shall become an outlaw”
Is that a religious doctrine?

So what is different about Christianity anyways?
Why not just do one that works for you? The USA has freedom of religion over here… Ya dig?

The one main difference I can see is grace… Unmerited favor. This Christian doctrine is in conflict with human desires to earn our way to God.

  • The Buddhist Eight Fold Path
  • The Hindu Doctrine of Karma
  • The Jewish Covenant
  • The Muslim Code of Law

In the Christian religion God already did all the work for us. Behavior has nothing to do with it. And when we believe it -He changes us. And we accept his help because we are thankful.

Oh there are tons of ways to look at religion and Christianity. But grace resounds throughout.

For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; Eph:2 8

Weekend Fun with Guns

February 28, 2009 By: DaveStuff Category: Evil No Comments →

It’s Friday night.. Maybe it would be a good time to take your gun and go out drinking…I used to go out drinking. But never with a gun. Hey this could be something new for me. I always like new experiences!Perhaps I could go to the local Wal Mart… Buy a cheap gun and then do some bar hoping to see what happens.

It’s FRY day night after all… And the evenings still young! Then I could blog about it tomorrow. Providing I make it home alive. Do you think its headed for trouble?

Thanks for checkin my blog.. Happy weekendings!
