Sanders' Religion Thread, Begun @ LC Forum Options

[Sanders]

e-Dog and I have decided to re-constitute this from LC. It is a thread about the 3 major religions of the world. The goal was to follow the path of each from their common origins to the present day. We (a number of LC posters and I) got as far as the begining of the First Crusade while the thread was active.

What becomes of this thread when all the copying is done is not clear. It may be just a read-only thread for the Religion topic. Or it may be left open to posting, so we can finish the journey.

"O My brother!
When a true seeker determineth to take the step of search in the path leading unto
the knowledge of the Ancient of Days, he must, before all else, cleanse his heart,
which is the seat of the revelation of the inner mysteries of God, from the
obscuring dust of all acquired knowledge, and the allusions of the embodiments
of satanic fancy."

before i dove into "the knowledge of ancient days" i did what i guess you could say was a heart cleansing. for about 3 years ... i spent the majority of time answering one question. "who am i?" like socrates said ... "know thy self" .. i agree that this is the most imporant thing a person can do. i'm not completely there .. probably never will be. but i've come to understand much about myself. reasons for reactions to past events .. reasons for others actions to past events.(sometimes it comes clear in ones self when seeing such in another)

BUT ... i dont think Satan exsists. and even if he/she did ... it would be because of a physical manifestation because of the massive belief in the entity.
