ancient_paztriot Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 Syamasundara dasa: Kierkegaard lamented the disintegration of Christianity as an effective form of worship. He considered modern Christendom to be a kind of sickness, a corruption of Christ’s original message. Srila Prabhupada: Christianity is Christianity, and you cannot call it modern or ancient, nor can you say that God is modern or ancient. We say that either a person is a Christian or not. Either he follows the orders of Christ, or he doesn’t. If you do not follow the tenets of your religion, how can you claim to belong to that religion? This applies to all religions? For instance, there are many so-called Hindus who do not believe in anything, yet they consider themselves Hindus and brahmanas. This is insulting.
