There is indeed the same truth in all religion - they are all bullshit, Buddhism not the least.

Peace everyone. First of all happy new year to you Chuck and everyone else.

Chuck, I believe that thee are also a lots of lies in every revealed religion. Like I can't be a Budhist because I believe in God but I believe that never getting angry is true good wich is what Budhism teaches.

In the Quran God is infinite, compassionate. It Tells you to forgive. I agree with those but I don't believe in Hell and the Quran is clear on that subject.

In the bible Jesus alegedly says to love your enemies. I believe that to be the right way if you want peace with God in next life. However there are things I don't believe in in the bible.

The bible tells you to feed your enemy. I agree with that. But I disagree with the bible's reasons for it wich is so that you would heap coal under or over his head.

I also believe in some sort of karmic like system wich is Budhism but I believe in God and they don't.

To be precise, I am not an omnist, but I am like an omnist. There is no name for my beliefs wich are part mystery since I can't know exactly how it all operates.

I hope this explains a hit to you Chuck and everyone else.

Thanks

Well,yes,your posts have made it pretty clear that you are rather credulous. Some people call belief without credible evidence "faith". I'm a bit more blunt,I consider "faith" simply a polite word for "superstition"

Peace!

It's been proven to me that there is more than just what science can prove to others. However before that I was still a believer. Faith in God and in doing good is a wonderful thing. I know sometimes people do bad and say its in the bible or Quran wich is why its good to have freethinking believers openly proclaim their faith.

And once again Happy new year everyone and I mean everyone!

Thanks

So you cherry pick something from every religion and combine it?
Sorry but that's like combining Mein Kampf,Karl marx's biography and Capitalism: A Treatise on Economics

Peace. But wouldn't it be beautiful if we all took the best from everyone and rejected the rest. Because let's face it no philosophy or faith is intirelly perfect.

Thanks

I have to point out one very important thing from the night thatI got better.MomentsbeforeI got better I started thinking that some of my conspiracy beliefs are probably true(in reality they weren't) butthat things like Hollywood moviescould nothavebeenmadefor me.Thisissince when sick that's what I would believe. I did believe that therewasa conection butdidnot believe that they were madefor me.

Now think about it. Isn't it a preaty egoistic thing to believe that everything is about you. Even though i would believe that everybody hates me and it would give me grief, still it wad egoistical to believe in that.

Once I realised that in moments my illness was gone. I also admit thatpriorto thatI didthink I will take a risk in not taking the medication so that I can see thetruth of everything that's possible for me to know. Like at the time it wad the truth about God thatwasmost important to me.

Anyway, I would highly recomend a book called A NEW EARTH BY Eckhart Tolle. In it he talks about paranoid schizophrenia in particular. Also I would higly recomend him to everyone else. Not just those interested in schizophrenia.

Thanks

So, a schizophrenic realizes that the subject or focus of everyday events is not themself....and feels cured.....I fail to see why this would be surprising (though I am thoroughly unconvinced that this actually occurred).

Keep taking your meds or you'll think that you are up for an Academy Award real soon, Pel.

It's really too long, can't pick what I'm supposed to be getting from this, but by judging the posts of others, I'd say that taking your medicine is the only way to deal with this.
