Gandhi rejected Christianity as a false religion
January 2, 2015 at 12:22 am (This post was last modified: January 2, 2015 at 12:25 am by Silver.)
Quote:Gandhi was shrewd enough to tell missionaries, “I like your Christ; I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.” When asked why he did not embrace Christianity, Gandhi said it offered nothing he could not get from his own religion.

Ah, but Gandhi did not realize the power and wealth possible with establishing a Christian TV ministry in the United States.

Yes Gandhi was right, but then he got too involved in his own beliefs.

So, according to him Shit-B is better than Shit-A. Ok, fine! I don't care as long as they don't try to sell me any variant of those shits.

I wouldn't worry too much, you probably wouldn't understand their beliefs anyway, as they probably wouldn't understand yours.

Not too sure about Gandhi, but apparently religious people understand my beliefs better than I do. They keep telling ME what I believe or don't believe...

Yes we all have our downside, but old Gandhi was just a little ahead of what most people were.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
