Sorry for the confusion. I assume Lashka is zoroastrian? I was just going off of what I remembered. Isn't there lots of prayers and rituals involving various elements?

Zoroastrianism has some basic concepts from the bible such as the shunning of idol worship, the final overthrow of evil, the resurrection, and the restoration of a righteous world. But they still pray and sacrifice to various things they view to be gods such as Fire and Sky. These people actually might respond well to receiving the full truth of God's word that they are lacking.


Well this is just total bs. Zoroastrianism has one god, Ahura Mezda, along with two mentalities (Progressive and Destructive). It's a Dualistic religion. There's no fire or sky worshipping, fire is just considered a medium through which wisdom is gained, with water being the source of that wisdom. They're used in all Zoroastrian rituals. No idea where you pulled sky from at all.

I wouldn't ask the people that sell them if I were you KHNM, they're biased. Don't listen to Kai, he's trying to get you to buy Samsung, but apple is where it's at


Personally I love apple, actually, but I have never used samsung, and therefore cannot give you a comparison. I have an iPhone and am currently using my Macbook Air to type this. I of course would suggest Apple simply because I am content with it.

So Kant believes in schrodinger's cat.
He believes that something does not exist until it is proven.
This is false, because regardless of whether or not anyone knows if the cat is alive or dead, it is still either alive or dead. When you open the box, if it is dead you can conduct tests to see how long it was dead. Otherwise it was never dead. There is no in-between.

Kant additionally believes that if God can be proven true, then anything else can be proven true or false. which is true.

The part about having to marry your rapist doesn't seem perfect to me, but that must be my conscience



KillHimNotMe says

I need to replace my phone - does the bible recommend samsung or apple more highly?


Marry your rapist? what kind of nonsense is that?

Kill the rapist, and ,if you want, kill his illegitimate child.
(Deuteronomy 22:25-27)

As far as replacing your phone, knowing that is not really vital for salvation, so its not in the bible. Nonetheless, you can still use biblical advice to find the answer.

If one of the different models suit your needs better, then go with that one. But you should probably consult someone. Who?

Proverbs 1:5
"A wise person listens and takes in more instruction;
A man of understanding acquires skillful direction"

So if you want to be smart about which phone to get, you should get more information.

Note that it mentions SKILLFUL DIRECTION. There is such a thing as unskillful direction. So following biblical advice, don't ask your newborn cousin. Ask the people who sell them, and the people who have used them, as they would know more about it and be able to help you.

According to the Bible, the Bible is correct.

Taoism, with its multitude of gods & goddesses, divination, and reading of various elements as signs, has failed to provide the answer to the meaning of life, and has not brought lasting peace and happiness.

Zoroastrianism has some basic concepts from the bible such as the shunning of idol worship, the final overthrow of evil, the resurrection, and the restoration of a righteous world. But they still pray and sacrifice to various things they view to be gods such as Fire and Sky. These people actually might respond well to receiving the full truth of God's word that they are lacking.

God does not dwell in objects such as wind and water.
(Read 1 Kings 19:11,12)

Confucianism does not satisfy any spiritual needs, it is merely a set of principles that does not bring you any closer to God.

Buddhism makes you rely upon yourself rather than on God. Because we are not perfect we are unable to follow all the rules without messing up, which leaves us feeling upset with ourselves. But not if we rely on God.

Jeremiah 10:23
"I well know, Jehovah, that man’s way does not belong to him.
It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step."

Proverbs 3:5
"Trust in Jehovah with all your heart,
And do not rely on your own understanding."

The bible's direction is clear. The only way to go is to Rely on God for help.

It seems to me there must be a source of morality other than the bible.


There is. In fact it is built in to those righteously inclined.
It is their Conscience.

Romans 2:14,15
"14 For when people of the nations, who do not have law, do by nature the things of the law, these people, although not having law, are a law to themselves. 15 They are the very ones who demonstrate the matter of the law to be written in their hearts, while their conscience is bearing witness with them, and by their own thoughts they are being accused or even excused."

Nonetheless the bible is the only absolutely perfect instruction manual for life. If its not in the bible, then its not important.

In comparison all other teachings are incomplete or otherwise wrong.

Its moral advice is perfect. And there is no decision you are not able to make, if you apply biblical principles, and you will never be wrong.

If the bible is the source of morality, by what basis do you deem certain parts of the bible no longer relevant or moral (slavery, , etc)?
