    For Pope to say that Hindus are ignorant is incredible to me. According to him all Hindus must be converted into Christianity. This is basically an evil desire to control freedom loving Hindus.

    Why would somebody want to enforce an arbitrary notion that God is a personal being, on people who believe that God is unknowable?

    Vinny,

    The current pope is a Nazi pig who covers up for pedophile priests. I wouldn't worry about any of the things he says. Truly.
    I am truly into myself, yes. And I'm just as interested in other people. When I'm not thinking of one, I'm thinking of the other.

    Beingness (existence) is the nature of manifestation. That is what it is. But focus on specific beingness (identity) for its benefit or detriment is aberration.

    Aberration definition, please?

    Aberration is fixation on survival instead of simply being.

    Why do you keep advising me about having fun?

    Is there something you are not saying?

    Because I want you to have fun so the interest level keeps up.

    What I'm not saying I've already said.

    I wish it would stay that way.

    Gadfly did an awesome job of laying out his case and while I wouldn't actually expect any one to refute it I wish those that want to contribute to it would use the confines he lays out as a ground work for further discussion.
