I dunno about Buddha but we have learned that Jesus is a historic person,and ofcourse there are historic evidences from ancient roman hostorians(plinje is one of them if i remember correctly,i dunno how's he called in englsih).

Now his teachings and all that is another thing. :)

Thanks...my doubt is actually from last part..i mean, all the magic things...Who ever don't want a Super Right Person can give the world an eternal peace...maybe just a human wish..and Evolution is the thing we learn in science.

The thing is, Jesus didnt write the Bible. Men did, around 1200 years after his death. These men were nobles, rich, ambitious, power hungry. What better way to take advantage of a loving faith than to add politics to it to gain more power?

 

That, to me, is the lowest you can possibly stoop.

 

And evolution is still a theory. I think that if theories are going to be taught in school, they shouldnt be biased and limit it to just Evolution. Teach everyone theories as theories, not as fact, and let the students decide for themselves. Dont totally ignore all the possibilities, or else you become closed-minded

good point for purifying faith/religion out of politics - yes, it was ruined by politics from a long time ago, and still being ruined today, which leads me think the origin of religion, it may not have only naive side from the beginning, Objective concern is the fact/evidence for the events in bible; subjective concern is If faith of love can be kept in human heart, and make this world better, it is enough for a religion.

 

Evolution has bunch of evidences from archiology, chemistry, phisics TOO! not just theory at all...and if evolution is just a fact, it doesn't necessarily mean human is just another animal, like Fittest survival..we all know good people are far beyond that (I mention that because i know why some of christian don't like to accept evolution).

 

Yes, open mind, different theories/facts are still some perspectives. One of absolute things is Love, love people in this world.

* Definitely, Lenin was one of the greatest men who ever lived, the leader of a revolution that could change world's mind...

*Definitely my favourite of Hesse is Steppenwolf

*Crime and punishement, the best book I've ever read
