"Paganism would suggest that we had some relationship with the Greeks and Romans in our beliefs but we didn't."
How so?
"Hinduism is a blanket term given to a varied schools of thought and practises. that does not necesarrily translate to multiple Gods as some believe. What it merely translate to is that its a term given to people who believe in certain basic elemental truths of life. That's all."
In this specific case I called someone a pagan after she posted a painting of four gods...
From wiki: "Paganism (from Latin paganus, meaning "a country dweller" or "civilian") is a blanket term which has come to connote a broad set of western spiritual or religious beliefs and practices of natural or polytheistic religions, as opposed to the Abrahamic monotheistic religions"
So I reckon it's dictionary.com vs. Wiki-battle of the titans. I don't really accept wiki's definition, because it'll go by what the hindus will tell them.(what's fair is fair)
Also from Wiki:"and soon the word for "country dweller" became synonymous with someone who was "not a Christian," giving rise to the modern meaning of "pagan."[1] In large part, this may have had to do with the conservative nature of rural people, who were more resistant to the new ideas of Christianity than those who lived in major urban centers."
"So what kind of a dumb statement is that : "because it'll go by what the hindus will tell them." Of course it would be defined by what the hindus tell them. Is christanity, Islam or Judaism being defined by a Buddhist—"
Just returning a favor, Scorps are known for that.
"Its not paganism. I don't care for the dictionary because they will go by what the church says. "
"Before that they had clearly mentioned that was taking into consideration the western hemisphere and by no chance did they make any reference to anything on the eastern hemisphere. Most western concepts are heavily influenced by the Semitic religions. And most try to understand those that are of dissimilar concepts by what they can relate to and hence if paganism a concept is the nearest that they come to be, then it is easily clubbed into that sub group."
So, your problem is that I'm looking at hinduism from a non-hinduist point-of-view?
Some facts about hinduism(http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Hinduism):In spite of common belief, the Hindus don't have that many Gods. Really, there are just five hundred main Gods and all other Gods can be seen as different aspects of them. Some of the Major Gods ruling each Cosmic principle are:
* Brahma , the principle of creation . Patron for all Hindus. * Llama , the principle of maintainance. Patron for all Buddhists. * Dingdong , the principle of confusion. Patron for all Hippies.
There also exist minor deities who are said to be partial reflections of the greater ones. Examples are:
* Siva , the god of destruction . Patron for all Serial Killers * Smellkesh , the principle of being horrendously smelly at all times. "
Alright, now for some actual Uncyclopedia stuff, because you specifically asked for it: "The Judes were originally a nomadic tribe that lived with the original dinosaurs (they go way back). It was in a fateful battle with a Tyrannosaurus Rex (who was disputing a debt he owed them) that they were originally cast out of the Land of the Lost and had to wonder around the Middle East for 40 years. Being excellent bankers but terrible navigators, they decided not to just pick one direction and stick with it. Hence the lost Tribes of Israel never really un-losing themselves. It was not until they ran into their most revered prophet, Woody Allen that they truly found the Promised Land. Ironically, that land was all the way across the world in Los Angelese."
"The symbol of Judaism is a six-pointed throwing star, or David's Star, representing the sharp and penetrating wisdom of Moses, who was a ninja, trained in the Kobra Kai dojo. It was discovered when some commoner Jewish man was playing around with his triangles on the potty. After hours of doodling, and to his suprise, he had created some dimented triangle of some sort. The Jewish star, also known as David's Lee Roth's Star, was quite a popular shape for pasta in Germany during the second World War."
"Not really. My bro was very wise when he was 17. But atleast he admitted he hasn't seen anything yet. I did it too. I was pretty much like you at that age. Annoying."
I am an ordained minister, have performed marriages, yet, I don't believe in God, nor do I mention God anywhere in the ceremony. Legally, these two people are married . . but, since I don't believe in
What about people living in remote parts of the world, like an island in the Pacific, or something; and they've never even heard of God. They have absolutely no clue that there might be a higher power out there.
Was it Isaac who had 300 wives and 700 concubines? Can't remember his name exactly, but, I remember hearing that this man was favored by God. God loved him so much for his faith and servitude, that the man was blessed and talked directly to the diety.
The bible says that Cain and Abel had a row and one brother died. For this sin, the man was cast out of the Garden of Eden to go live with the other people on a different land.
What if you found yourself standing in front of God, would you believe it was really him? Or, think it was the devil? For, does anyone really see God with their own eyes.
