The message summary:

 

I am glad to hear that at last!In a brief mail exange with a member in this

group this question was partly concerned.

Christianity(as any other religious system) was born as an embodiment of the

highest humanistic ideas in that doomy times(I point the so called New

Testament wich describes the story of Jesus historically dated in the final

period of the Roman Empire).It had no aim to rule or conquer.Not,untill the

Church was created(if we must be correct-till those disciples of

Christ,known as the Eevangelists died).Soon personal interests of the clergy

led to crush in the 'Holly Church' and the two 'enemies' were born-the

Roman Catholic Church and Bizanyne-Orthodox Church.

I'm not going to discuss the intricate afaires these two innitiated

throghout the ages,but all this has nothing in common with the One that

tought of patience,compassion and love,in the way Buddha,Krishna and

Mohammed did.And the most-important- he didn't judge or condamn anyone.

Why do some people think they have the right to do it?Maybe it is only a

question of personal level of consiousness.

I have certain observations,cause I was baptised and raised in a

christian-orthodox family.My grandma,for example, was wise enough to say'if

you pray with all your love,God will hear you,no matter if you are in a

church,a mosque or in the open air' .Ironically,my brother in law is an

orthodox priest-he doesn't want my litlle nephew to take my'himalaya drugs'

herbal tablets,cause they come from India,but if I put them in a bottle with

a different label,then it's O.K.

This fear to look for God in every aspect of life should be erased with the

power of knowledge,but first a will for learning is needed.A difficult task

You have.

Respect-mihaela
