Interesting Facts about Religions



The facts about religions, whether you are believer or not that is secondary matter, the following facts have some sensible things, which all literate persons must admit.

Christianity:
One Christ, One Bible, One Religion
BUT
 the Latin Catholic will not enter Syrian Catholic Church.
These two will not enter
 Marthoma Church.
These three will not enter
 Pentecost Church.
These four will not enter
 Salvation Army Church.
These five will not enter
 Seventh Day Adventist Church.
These six will not enter
 Orthodox Church.
These seven will not enter
 Jacobite church.
Like this there are 146 castes in Kerala alone,
each will not go to the other's church to pray...!
So much for One Christ, One Bible, One Jehova.....
What a unity!


Islam:
One Allah, One Quran, One Nebi....! 
AND ALL MUSLIMS CALL THEMSELVES BROTHERS!

BUT,
 
Shia and Sunni cannot see eye to eye
and kill each other anywhere and everywhere.
The
 Shia will not go to Sunni Mosque.
These two will not go to
 Ahamadiya Mosque.
These three will not go to
 Sufi Mosque.
These four will not go to
 Mujahiddin mosque...
There are 13 castes in Muslims and these brothers can't share their places of worship.
 
The brothers have been killing/bombing/conquering/murdering/raping each other in the name of Islam for the last 500 years,
 since the day Islam existed...! 
They have never been or never will be at peace with Jews or Christians in the name of religion,
 yet all 3 pray to the same God of Abraham. 
The American attack on the Muslim
 land of Iraq and Afghanistan is fully supported by all the Muslim countries around them!
One Allah, One Quran, One Nebi....!
Great unity!

All Muslims are not Terrorists,
but all Terrorists are Muslims.
and 60% of all victims of Muslim terrorism are Muslims.
THEY ARE KILLING THEMSELVES IN THE NAME OF RELIGION.



Hindus
1,280 Religious Books, 
10,000 Commentaries,
 
more than one lakh sub-commentaries
 
for these foundation books,
 
330 million gods,
 
variety of Aacharyas,
 
thousands of Rishies,
 
hundreds of languages...
still everyone goes to the
SAME TEMPLE ...
Hindus never quarreled each other
for the last ten thousand years in
the name of religion.

Only Politicians had tried to divide and rule.
    
   
Buddhism:
Buddhism is the world's first religion
Fourth-largest religion behind Chistianity, Islam and Hinduism
Buddism is both a religion and philosophy
largely based on teachings attributed to Siddhartha Gautama
Three concepts, Karma, Rebirth, Samsara
They classify themselves as Theravada or Mahayana
Both accept the Buddha as their teacher
Both accept the Middle way, Dependent origination, Four Noble Truths,
Noble Eightfold Path and Three marks of existence
Both accept that members of the laity and of the sangha can pursue the path toward enlightenment (Bodhi)
Both consider buddhahood to be the highest attainment
They do not believe that this world is created and ruled by a God
They consider that the purpose of life is to develop compassion for all living beings without discrimination
and to work for their good, happiness and peace
and to develop wisdom leading to the realization of the Ultimate Truth



The moral is:
KEEP RELIGION OUT OF POLITICS AND
POLITICS OUT OF RELIGION
The killing will stop
and there will be peace on earth!!!

What is a 'HINDU' ?

In 1995, Chief Justice P. B. Gajendragadkarwas quoted in anIndian Supreme Court ruling:

When we think of the Hindu religion, unlike other religions in the world, the Hindu religion does not claim any one prophet; it does not worship any one god; it does not subscribe to any one dogma; it does not believe in any one philosophic concept; it does not follow any one set of religious rites or performances; in fact, it does not appear to satisfy the narrow traditional features of any religion orcreed. It may broadly be described as away of life and nothing more.

Common Misunderstandings on Hinduism

Vedanta (and all Hinduism) is entirely monistic, believing only in the all-pervading world-soul, Brahman, rather than a personal God

This advaita philosophy is certainly popular, and offers a simple explanation of the many deities. Nonetheless, many theologians have considered God to be a person. He is not merely an anthropomorphic representation, nor are the various deities and murtis simply incarnations or representations of an impersonal Supreme.

Thus Hinduism includes both monism and monotheism. It is misleading to call the Abrahamic religions,"the monotheistic traditions," implying that monotheism is absent from the Eastern traditions. Vedanta includes many monotheistic schools. They may accept the existence of many gods and goddesses, but strongly emphasizes the pre-eminence of the Supreme Deity.
