WELCOME TO CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM



The power of perfect reasoning is essential to know.


The one true religion

A discriminating intellect is that in which knowledge based only on words, real knowledge and ordinary knowledge based on sense perception or reasoning are present in a mixed state and the mind alternates between them.

"When the time of destruction is at hand the intellect becomes perverted." Vridha Chan. 16:17.
Topic of discussion
Five Tests of true religion - Feb 08, 2002
  1. It (revelation) must exist in its entirety from the very beginning of creation for all of mankind, and not over a long period of time after.
    Oppose - It is unjust of Yahwe, Allah and Christ, to deprive millions born before the revelation of the Ten Commandments, the Q'uran, and the New Testament of His 'divine wisdom'. An injustice which cannot be the work of a Just, Compassionate and Merciful God.
  2. It must conform with (immutable) Natural laws
  3. Oppose - The cause of the physical body is the reproductive element - any other method as man was created from dust or blood-clot and all other miracles of God and Prophets are a breach to this law.
  4. It must be in harmony with reasoning.
    Oppose - Incest which results in mental and physical infirmities, is an immoral action and it had to be the same also in the beginning (creation of one man and one woman).
  5. It must be in harmony with science.
    Oppose - Modern science has proven creation to be more than 6,000 years old, the earth is spherical and it rotates and revolves, contradictions to the Torah, Bible and Q'uran.
  6. Its truth must be confirmed by four evidences :-
  • Direct Cognition - Not all that is known by perception can be true.
  • Inferences - God is eternal therefore we can infer that there were past creations and as well as there will be future ones.
  • Testimony - The testimonies of Rishis, sages and seers of the Vedas (altruistic teachers are all in harmony with each other.
  • History - There are many books (Mahabharata, Valmiki's Ramayan) and source of other civilization which speak of the past ancient Vedic (Aryas) civilization of 5,000 years ago and earlier.

Let's be reasonable when it comes the most abstruse science of God (wisdom), the ignorant (by repenting) and the wise (by austerity) can never reap the same rewards.

The theory of evolution is widely accepted as being false...

“The theory of evolution is widely accepted as false …”

No, it’s not. The debate has been settled, in scientific circles, for over a century - in favor of evolution.

“…because there are still monkeys that haven't turned into humans.”

Re: The theory of evolution is widely accepted as being false...

And now the question is, what do “the relevant scientists” know of the laws of nature?

The ruder stage
"But there is another prejudice which is cherished by many scholars evidently under the impression of its being a well-recognized scientific doctrine. It is that in the ruder stages of civilization, when the laws of nature are little known and but little understood, when mankind has not enough of the experience of the world, strict methods of correct reasoning are very seldom observed." Swami Dayanand

Albert Einstein agrees - "We see the universe marvelously arranged and obeying certain laws but only dimly understand these laws." Scholars of theology, except the Aryas, have no understanding at all and for those of science, it is dim.

Re: The theory of evolution is widely accepted as being false...

“And now the question is, what do “the relevant scientists” know of the laws of nature?”

For a start, they know that evolution is an observed fact … something that you seem to be woefully unaware of.

Re: The theory of evolution is widely accepted as being false...

An observed fact is when the event is steady. That’s how Natural Laws work. We see clouds and know its going to rain, we see a pregnant woman we know she is going to have a child, we see an apple falling it reminds us of gravity. What is not steady, is a human evolving from a ape.

Re: The theory of evolution is widely accepted as being false...

“An observed fact is when the event is steady.”

No. Observed fact means that we observed it.

“What is not steady, is a human evolving from a ape.”

Of course not. That was a one-time event. And by the way, we are apes.

What is steady is evolution. It just doesn’t tend to repeat itself. We’ll continue evolving, but it’s hard to predict what exactly how exactly we are going to evolve.

Re: The theory of evolution is widely accepted as being false...

“That was a one-time event.”

So it was for the resurrection of the dead & virgin birth, both a one-time event. Why don’t you accept it?

You can pretend to be as intelligent as you want to be, but the question is, what do you understand of natural laws?

Re: The theory of evolution is widely accepted as being false...

“So it was for the resurrection of the dead & virgin birth. Why don’t you accept it?”

No good evidence.

“what do you understand of Natural Laws?”

I briefly checked the website … and it looks very bogus to me. For a start, the mention of “creation” makes it sound religious, rather than scientific. There is no good evidence for “creation”.

Re: The theory of evolution is widely accepted as being false...

All my comments are being deleted by Quora. It seems their mission is to protect stupidity.

"Men are born ignorant, not stupid; they are made stupid by education." Bertrand Russell

As Mark Twain figured it out to be - "I was educated once - it took me years to get over it." So have I.

Re: The theory of evolution is widely accepted as being false...

So what’s your point, with these quotes?

Re: The theory of evolution is widely accepted as being false...

The point is, the stupid don’t know they are stupid.

If don't think you are, then explain this - "Science without religion is lame;... Albert Einstein"
