MilleniumArmy I'm right with ya. Christianity IS the best religion. It follows the Bible more closely thatn any other religion. If I were to create a new religion....it would have everything from Christianity. Meaning Christianity is the closest to perfect possible.

Okay, w/e. Nobody wants to CREATE a relgion. They just want to say which one (already in existance) is the best. Well this topic was a failure disgust.gif
Oh well. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Feel free to talk about what ever you want to do with relgion in this topic. I disown it closedeyes.gif

I dont know. I think I was trying to do something like make a relgion EVERYONE would enjoy. But I think that is impossible to do since most people will not adopt another relgion and disown their own. So like I said, everyone has their own opinions.

Ps. I like what you said up there. smile.gif

Wow thanks. Umm, how long has your preacher been preaching there? Name kind of sounds familiar....but I am not sure. We had some folks go up to Austin form our church so I am kind of wondering, lol. ANy helpful hints please reply. huh.gif

Quite a while. I 4get. Dont know too much of his background info

But the name Sam Lee is just all together too common of a name. Especially in asian populated areas like california.

Haha. I totally set aside the Asian Church comment. The guy I am tlaking about is white. pinch.gif I attend the Church of Christ if you care to know. I hope on some of these posts we can "team up" against people who try to bring down our great religion, lol. Ok that sounded kind of pathetic. What I mean is I hope we continue sharing the same views?

Not to be rude or anything, but I think Islam is a better religion than Christianity, and I think Daoism is better than Islam.
Christianity just seems to cause a lot of trouble, Islam is a little more peace related but somehow some freak not knowing a single thing about thier religion goes up and kills people, blaming it on Islam. Daoism in America would probably do a lot of good in many ways.

No no no you guys have it all wrong of what dark is talking about.

Let's pretend you were God, ok? If you created people and you could make your own religion around yourself, what would it be like? Would you have it that people reincarnated? What days would they come to worship you? How would they worship you: sacrifice, music, dancing? THAT is what Dark is trying to say.

Hmm.. if I was God and could make a religion based around me.. how would it be done??? First, I would have them make idols of Kirby to place around the kingdoms smile.gif. Then, the religion story of creation would be that I created the waters and they merged into very dense matter called land. Then, like Christianity, I would add that I gave breath to mankind and yadda yadda yadda. Now, I would probably give these beings free will just like God did, because if I want to be truly praised this is the best choice.

Anyways, this is what |)ark is asking us. He's not saying "religion is all about opinions, so just come here to "create-a-religion", he's asking a hypthetical question about what the "perfect" religion would be like, not the "correct" one. wink.gif Get it?

Kibry I believe we both understand what he is tlaking about. I am only stating that Christianity IS my perfect religion. Meaning, why try to make my own religion if the one I'm in is to me, PERFECT. So, if you want to know what my religion would be. It would be EXACTLY the same as Christianity. Meaning, I don't think you can have a perfect religion but if I were to create what I personally thought was the best it would be VERY similar to Christianity. I hope that clears things up for you a bit more? huh.gif

Yes, well, Im sorry to say this and I mean no offence, but if you already think your relgion is perefct then you shouldn't be in this topic. Its for creating a new one, or being open minded about others. I can see you are very devoted to you relgion and I am glad for you, but this is not the topic to be talking about that. Please, either expand on Kirby's idea, or make your own, or im sorry to say but you will have to leave (please).

As for my relgion... It happens when two children, a brother and a sister, which are Gods, create two universes which are exactly the same... Except for one difference.

One brother, Uiza, is evil; he creted an evil universe. To sister, Dresic, is good so she created a good universe. Both siblings ruled over their universes fittingly for their people.

One day, they became angery at eachother. Each thought their universe was the best. They fought for a very long time until, not thinking right, Uiza picked up his universe and threw it at Dresic's. The siblings, standing astonished, witnessed their universes collide, crashing together, intermingling and becoming one.

Soon the evil people met the good people. They became friends, and enimies. Wars were fought and murder was born. Lawers (lol) and bankers were created (haha). And since the beginning of the converging of our universe, Uiza and Dresic both rule over this universe, constantly fight and never agreeing to anything.

The Gods kind of represent humans (always fighting, acting like children) and explains why our universe contains evil and good. Other stories from the Bible of Duality will be made when I have a life experience that teaches me something. One commandment has been made so far:
1. Thou shalt not steal! Stealing is the ultimate sin, or at least thats what I think. I could condense the 10 commandsments of Christianity to 6. Killing (stealing ones life), stealing (steal...), coveting (You were thinking about it, I know you were tongue.gif ), and adultery (you are stealing your wife's/husband's love, which they gave you but you dont take, or you are stealing someone elses wife/husband)

A couple of simple life rules have also been made: Be humble towards other, live as simply as you can, make mistakes (its part of life) but learn from them, and dont do things to others that you wouldn't want done to you. I usually abide to these simple rules of life, which everyone should no matter what your relgion. But to make these part of a relgion really strengthens their meanings biggrin.gif

The bible is IN Christianity, I think you should research other religions and find out that the bible is just a part of Christianity, not some axis that makes up every religion



The religion I would make would be a religion with some story yada yada and a book with this in it.

1. Don't be a fatty.
2. Stop smoking death rolled in paper.
3. Kill people and I kill you, fair deal?
4. Don't be fruity, I hate that.
5. Don't say you love me, because I don't love you
6. Don't be corrupt.
7. Don't be lazy.
8. Don't say other people will go to hell, you don't have a right to say that.
9. BECAUSE I AM THE MAN WHO SENDS THEM.
10. You wanna play god, go somewhere else.
11. Don't argue with me, I will bend reality and make myself right.
12. I can't make you believe in me for some reason.. so uhh.. yeah... believe in me. Now.

Hey Dark, I just realized something... maybe the reason people hosed you is beacuse this is in the serious discussions section... maybe it should be in creative works or something more based upon creativity than logicality?

Take away the two gods part, replace one with God's old favorite angel, Lucifer.
and that's pretty damn close to christianity...

You tell 'em FK. smile1.gif And Jetlast you MUST be more specific. Christianity can not be at fault for everything. Unless you are telling me that it gets cold in the winter because of Christianity...So be specific. Also Dark, Kibry is right. This sort of thing needs to be under creative works. And BTW your comment did offend me. Not to the point where I am infuriated but it just felt like you are kind of being narrow-minded(no offense on that one either). One last thing, Jetblast, many other religions are based on the Bible. Once again you are wrong, Catholicism is based on the Bible, Judaism is mostly based on the Bible, Mormonism is based on the Bible(or whatever parts they feel are right pinch.gif) and I am sure there are many more religions.

Well, I dont think I can move it, but if I can I will. But im not trying to offend you but seriously, topics are made for "specifc things". Talking about something that is not part of the topic... is off topic lol. So being narrow-minded is not me personally being narrow-minded, it is actually the topic being specific. Secondly, a little close to christianity, but only is a couple ways. Mostly, I don't even belive in God. But thats just me. Thirdly, Christianity is actually a branch off of Catholisism. I could be wrong on that, but there are actually hundreds of relgions based on The God (one in heaven, is enimies with the devil, christianity God). They all have their MINOR differences though, such as Jewdism says Jesus wasn't the Masia, christianity does, (i believe it is Islmaic or Hinduism) believes that mostly like the jews but other minor differense, the paradox church, and list goes on. But now I'm off topic, so I'll let this be. I wont actually post anymore on this unless anyone asks me to. So have fun, or not... tongue.gif

The thing is, other religions may be similar, but that doesn't mean they are "Based" on Christianity. In fact most of them haven even been touched with the word Christian.

No... neither of them.




AANnnnddddddd (RANT)
If you want to preach Christianity, go to a topic that is ABOUT Christianity, this is a topic about making up a religion. You can't just say that Christianity is the best religion and stamp it on your wall. Read rule 11 of my little book.

Thank you for trying to understand dark. As for you Jetblast. You are still making no sense. I am sure if you ask anyone else on this topic they would tell you the same thing. Name a few things that Christianity does to cause "trouble". Also, Christianity is NOT a branch of Catholicism. Just FYI. And dark honestly this shouldn't be in serious discussion, because it isn't serious....it's for fun and make-believe. I suggest creative works as Kirby said earlier. No offense to anyone.
