Originally posted by NT2:So do I, only that as a Buddhist it is only right I find out for myself by truly experiencing and seeing the truths myself merely than just clinging on beliefs. Probably majority of Christians think otherwise.
i believe that truth is exclusive and it must be.
there is no room for relativism i would propose.
ok...i got my answer for the thread i started and now its time to leave. thanks AEN for ur good manners.np
post in EH. i wont answer here.Originally posted by longchen:I have a question?
If by God's Grace anyone can go to heaven if given the right way of salvation... does that mean that very-unpleasant people can be there as well.
If all the unpleasant people are there, can we still enjoy heaven. Think of the person you dislike the most (like your boss) and he/she is there in heaven with you as well. Will that still be heaven?
I think the Christians will think soOriginally posted by longchen:I have a question?

gd questionOriginally posted by laurence82:So heaven got annoying people?![]()
it is so because all of us are born sinners. no one is better than anyone else.Originally posted by An Eternal Now:I think the Christians will think so![]()
no, i mean i thought u meant thatOriginally posted by An Eternal Now:gd question
but i guess the christian doesnt wish to talk here
yea but what he is asking is, how can an annoying boss live in heaven even though he believes in jesus and his past sins are redeemedOriginally posted by NT2:it is so because all of us are born sinners. no one is better than anyone else.
heaven is free and is neither earned nor deserved. thats all i would want to say here.
maybe you dont get to talk in heaven.Originally posted by longchen:I have a question?

I see. Hmm yes thats what longchen is askingOriginally posted by laurence82:no, i mean i thought u meant that
its ok if the christian doesnt wish to talk here
there are other christians who would be willingly give advice and counsels...if you rem the thread about some annoying boss posted here
Yah... this is my question.Originally posted by An Eternal Now:yea but what he is asking is, how can an annoying boss live in heaven even though he believes in jesus and his past sins are redeemed
You said i accuse him, poking relentlessly, but you still havent point how and what..Originally posted by Cenarious:Wow laurence, all you did was blow up the another person's ego by relentlessly poking at him, making him have to defend himself by being offensive. Even if we cannot answer why a buddhist monk went to a taoist activity it doesn't automatically mean that buddhism is false and that he could convert all of us into christianity without effort. I could ask a lot about harry potter facts but it doesn't mean I think harry potter is real. Stop stalking people you d.ick
Actually this question was asked many times in the EH forum.Originally posted by longchen:Yah... this is my question.
It is for example:
If a killer goes to heaven... will he still be killing? If he kills there, can it still be heavenly?
can refer some links? i'm interested to know the christian POV too.Originally posted by laurence82:Actually this question was asked many times in the EH forum.
Could try asking there
How about Buddhism point of view?

Is heaven refering to nirvana?Originally posted by An Eternal Now:can refer some links? i'm interested to know the christian POV too.
in buddhism, generally ppl who go to heaven are virtuous with virtuous karma.
even if another celestial being meets a bitchy person in heaven, that's his karma too![]()
No. I am refering to the heaven in the 6 realms.Originally posted by laurence82:Is heaven refering to nirvana?
the links, u might have to find urself, i am lazy..and its asked within topics you have to dig
-_-!
You certainly described yourself well when you saidOriginally posted by laurence82:You said i accuse him, poking relentlessly, but you still havent point how and what..
Its ok, i know you cant, so i will let you off on this
Strangely, my meaning was clear. If you believe in one thing, why is there a need to match what people claim and what they do, when all in all, its all against what you believe in? Thats from his POV. You talk from a third part POV, which is irrelevant to my post. It shouldnt be directed to me, coz I never said Buddhism is false, nor would i want to do that.
And lastly, cannot say things liao dont resort to using names. Not nice lar![]()
Asking him, is poking at him?Originally posted by Cenarious:You certainly described yourself well when you said
"Its a general advice
Cunning...is something inside, that you must, like you said, investigate your mind.
Smile
Subtlety is a form of cunning ".
The last straw was when you said he was losing faith and considering buddhism when you jolly well know that all his ego is placed entirely into the christian basket.
I do not care about the past, all I care about is this thread now. He wasn't gonna mention anything about christianity. So if I know/think that something is false then I cannot try to make more sense out of it? I cannot be interested in finding out more about the warcraft universe? You totally showed us your narrow, one tracked and unforgiving mindset. When you try to see another person's POV you are actually using your own mindset/experience model to analyse what he is thinking. It all came from your mind.
You should have never post anything u troublemakerOriginally posted by NT2:i believe that truth is exclusive and it must be.

ok...i got my answer for the thread i started and now its time to leave. thanks AEN for ur good manners.
Well the truth is, you created a self fulfilling prophecy by goading him into talking about christianity, and then claiming that you knew it all along.Originally posted by laurence82:Asking him, is poking at him?
Oh ok...so next time i shouldnt ask questions, pretty sensitive...is that ur reasoning?
Again, prove the narrow one tracked and unforgiving mindset? This is the third question on proving, which apparently you cant do.
Is using his POV wrong? Strange, if i am using his POV, how to use my mindset? Or you are telling me now you have supernatural powers to read my mindset?
Not using my own model, method is the reason a person would use another person's POV, so as not to be imposing his own values. This is all wrong?
What logic is this?
Pls answer my previous questions. You cant prove and you end it by concluding i am goading and claiming?Originally posted by Cenarious:Well the truth is, you created a self fulfilling prophecy by goading him into talking about christianity, and then claiming that you knew it all along.
Doubts soOriginally posted by NT2:i like the way u suspect things.
there is no truth except in Jesus Christ.
the purpose of this thread is to put together wat buddhist claimed and what i come across. i do not wish to entertain your foolish observations and set of thinking about me.
I guess the last sentence is the most hilarious statement i have seen throughout my life. I was a buddhist mind you.
