I'd much rather be surrounded by Christians, even Charismatics, than Secular Jews, believing Muslims, and especially DIE People.

Sikhs and Jews are ethnoreligions that feel threatened by missionaries. That's why there's Kashmir (or should be), and Israel.

Everybody else complaining about Missionaries is a wuss, and ANYBODY complaining about missionaries in the US is a wuss, and they can go home if they don't like it. Preaching outside fairs, in parks, etc. is a Tradition, one of the cornerstones of this country before it was ever a country, starting with Whitefield.

Sikhs don't feel threatened by missionaries.
I am just telling how pathetic their pitch is and they are even failing to retain their own and doing the bidding for Godless.

Are you saying Sikhs are being oppressed by Christians? Every religion tries to convert to some extent, as long as it's not being done by force. I'm sure Christians and Sikhs are willing to cooperate on many initiatives all over the world.

No, Sikhs are not threatened by Christians or missionaries especially in US.
Missionaries don't represent Jesus with things like "Only Jesus can save from hell"...
It goes against:
Bible says "Christians are not to judge others".. and it worked well in past.

It is OK for Sikh to become Christian or vice versa... But controlling mind by fear of hell is no better than Hindooo superstitions.

indc says

It is the abrahamics who want to differentiate between sikhs and hindus. If you really wants to compare between protestants and catholics. Try the way of vishnavites and shivites.

Missionaries tried this differentiation and failed when they found that Vishnu prayed to Shiva and Shiva prayed to Vishnu.

Interesting. I'm not very familiar with Sikh religion, but I know enough to differentiate it from Hindu. The Catholic v Protestant is certainly more muddled in this country, though with all the religious persecution in Europe over the centuries, betting it's much clearer there. And one of the key breaks between East and West church was concerning marriage, which I think plays a big role in the pedophilia that seems rampant in Catholicism. Guess those guys missed Paul's admonition to cut off their dick rather than sin...

indc says

Jehovah's witnesses are the weakest lot if they want to convert anyone. You know only 144000 souls can go to heaven according to their bible. So anyone can convert their flock just based on this point.

Like I said, my assertion is based on effort. Don't know too many Protestant churches where members go door-to-door.

You are aware of the difference between Protestant's and Catholic's right? It's pretty big. I wouldn't call Sikhs cow worshippers just because Sikhs and Hindu's share a country.

Hindoo is EXPLOITATIVE CULT created by "islamic invaders" to oppress and discriminate against Natives(Caste system), It is historical fact.
Bharti Sikhs only have loyalty to Bhartis. Hindoo is blot on Bharat like any colonialism is on natives.

Bhartis can chose to go back to their roots free from "slavery" by removing Hindoo cult from society.

If that's all you hear, it's because your biased eyes are lying to you. You read two words in ,until you get triggered then bring up Sikhism.

My apologies to religious folks here. As well intending as you may be, religion as I've said before is pure wealth extraction. It's created most of the worlds huge conflicts. Religion shouldn't be tax exempt. It should be taxed like the business that it is. Maybe I'm being hyperbolic, but it's true. Even the most well intentioned religion is pure shit.

We're lied to daily by our government and media, yet you somehow believe in religions with "leaders" that are fucking little boys and have massive wealth. I don't know, seems Epstien'y. All religions are cults in my world. If you've ever been put under, you know what death is... you just happen to wake up from it that time. When it actually happens it's over. Done. I'm continually amazed how dumb the human species is. We destroy each other over myths and fiction. Whatever.

In America you are free to criticize whichever religion you choose. However, don’t expect to be endeared to the ones whose faith you’re attacking. Bass and Wookie might believe sincerely that all religion is bunk, and I’m hard pressed to disagree. But FAITH on the other hand… that’s most often a powerful force for good and its one of the only things which allowed mankind to transcend the animal kingdom to become civilized and empathetic towards each other.
Be careful when you criticize a man’s faith, for he will most assuredly NOT appreciate it, and you may forfeit any goodwill you once would have received automatically.

Why bring up these images? None of these people are Christians - also the real work is done by many small missionaries and voluntary workers in countless shitholes, those are Christians, not the famous assholes portrayed by the leftoid lamestream media. But fine with me withdraw them all, everywhere, you'll see many more things going to shit, let's start the age of isolationism ;)

Watch this video, lot of knowledge used to transfer between East n west. https://youtu.be/_48of2bcHbM

There is whole theory on how Jesus was in India, cameback n started Christianity.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unknown_years_of_Jesus

Buddhist monks were sent to Rome, China etc 350 years before Jesus christ so lot of that book knowledge existed. Lot of Buddhist books are extremely similar and based on Vedas (hindu 5 to 10 000 year old books )

Vedas or Buddha has nothing to do with Hindooo, They are treasure of Bharat.
Only contribution of Hindooo is caste system and chasing Buddhists out of Bharat on behest of Islamic barbarians.

While all you do is bitch about Guru vs Guru in India, bitching about the Hindu religion like the Sikhs are any better. From where I sit, you're dumber than any Hindu I've ever met.
At least they respect America and try to assimilate, they don't walk around looking like a fucking Q-tip deriding America and our politics. They have the fucking balls to pick a stance.

Sure they might not be chopping heads off right now. But when you lack that much respect for other cultures and host countries. The bombs and acid in your face isn't that far away.

Take your fucking turban off, if you say you're not like them.

There are definitely examples of this in American Protestantism. But it's not religion that creates the conflicts, it's man's incorrect interpretation of it. Just like we do many things incorrectly. Instead of worrying about religious wars, you should worry about central government/central banking encouraged wars. Every conflict in modern history has been due to these elements.

Sikhs were all Hindus before, Hindus mostly believe in ahimsa , they even respect animals. Sikh were given refuge in India when Muslims killed n kicked them out of Pakistan. They lived peacefully with hindu community 500 years. Only sikh who took up arms against govt to create separate state were killed in civil war.

Other than random incident, sikhs are treated just like other hindu sects. Sikhs I met are wonderful.

Thanks guys, and I must say, to all of the Indians on this board, thanks for being spiritually intonated, to understand where my statements were spurn from.
I've never met an Indian Hindu or Sikh I didn't like or didn't get along with. Well except for this one Sikh that was dating a Girl I trapped in the Friend Zone with.
She liked him, because he had a Recording studio at his house. She would bring me along, he saw that was the friend that wanted to be more. And would go out of his way to be an asshole, when Trina wasn't in the room. It's comical in hindsight.

As for Farmer it's almost like he's Hindu or Muslim trying present himself as a Sikh, to make them look bad. Because even the asshole I told you about, wasn't this big of an asshole.

There really is no other argument against my statement. There's not a person on the planet that can verify anything in religious books and tales ever happened. It's all a lie. The books themselves are pure shit.

Religion is a money extraction system. Always has been. Look at the middle ages. The church was all powerful, in some cases more powerful than the monarchy. Crusades. I thought this was common knowledge. Rape and pillage on either side. Religion is toxic. Still is. But hey, people believe covid is dangerous, so I guess everyone gets suckered into some scam.

Faith and science are different.
We do lot of things for our soul and psychologically they are beneficial.
Religion has been force for good (Christianity especially in many cases) to modify our thinking in positive way.

Sikhs saved Hindoo from Islamic tyrants. Some Hindoo became too uppity for being slave cult and Islamists decided to cull.

I bet the thought of Valhalla where only the most courageous could go was quite the motivator for Vikings in battle, just as the believe in Jesus and Mary give comfort to the devoted Catholic.

It seems quite limiting to only believe in what your 5 senses tell you. There is more going on.

I agree, but I don't think that it's supernatural, merely not understood yet. Religions may have some kinds of understanding that will later be shown true. A trivial example is all of the Old Testament rules on hand washing, circumcision, no homos, and what foods not to eat. A lot of them reflect the reality of how disease works. People violate the rules and get sick or die. Ancient people observed these things. Seemed like God did it. And maybe you can argue it was God by defining God as the universe.

I think consciousness is just a property of nature that comes and goes according to conditions. I'm pretty sure animals are all quite conscious, even bugs in a limited way.

I swear my wife can often tell exactly what I'm thinking. No idea how she does that.

I think there is an irresistible force (love that song) out there and it is supernatural. While we have come to understand many things once believed to be supernatural each gain of knowledge comes with more questions that can't be explained. That circle will never end imo, no matter how much we'll understand.

I don't give anyone a dime. Not saying I never would, but I would have to be involved enough to be getting something out of the church first. God doesn't care how much money I give, just that I'm a good steward of what he's blessed me with.

When they excavated Jericho, they found that walls had fallen outward, not in. There are tales of a great deluge in every ancient culture. They have found pieces of the ark up on a mountain. There's also geographical evidence. Pontius Pilot and Jesus are both found in historical records. The Old Testament is one of the most accurate historical works ever produced. Way better than Josephus. Just the complexity of the earth tells us there must be a divine Creator. No system this complex could ever happen by chance, and anyone who's a programmer should know that.

All the rest you mention is again, man, not God. The problems you have are with man and his mis-representation of who God is. If you're gonna let that keep you from God, that's just sad. Personally, I would never let a bunch of idiots scare me off of something so important. But people's dumbassery doesn't have too much sway with how I live my life.

Most thought Troy was a legendary place until Schliemann found it.

David and his House was considered legendary by many until they found a reference to King Joram, son of Ahab, of the "House of David" being whooped by Hazael, King of Aram, on the Tel Dan stele - by an Enemy, so it wasn't the Hebrews bragging about their own myths. Two other steles from around that time confirm the House of David.

Lots of interesting destruction patterns going on around the collapse of the Bronze Age, and lots of stuff to far inland to be the Sea Peoples.

Joram did not follow God, and the Old Testament makes it clear his defeat was due to this. As a contrast look at Hezekiah and Sennacherib. By the time of Joram, Israel was split into two different kingdoms, and their fall from Solomon's time was pretty far and fast.

I hope Christian missionaries concentrate on “positives” rather than poking nose into another religion like Hindooo cult.
The purpose of religion is not to control people but to rather free them.
If Christianity want to become a “exploitation cult” it will end up same way haemorrhaging Followers like Hindoo cult as more people come to know that it is about control not delivering freedom.

Bro Hindus don't really believe in conversion. Farmer u truly lack its understanding. I have not heard of any process for conversion. Just like various food satisfy u, different people have different path to God. There is no official conversion process or ceremony for converting to the Hindu faith.

If u r interested , n understand higher level of spirituality u can join but no one will ever come n say convert.

Once you say there is only one way to do something, you kill off all other options and evolution of ideas.
