If you want an end of war, religion is the last place to look for that solution. They don't exactly have a very good record in that arena. Civil and moral behavior in people are what lead to civilized and moral nations.

Final answer: religion of reason and love. As Aleister Crowley said: "Love is the law, love under will.". ... Yet he was labeled as one of the most dangerous Satanists of 20th century. Similar to witches and 'heretics' who were tortured and burned alive just because they were not moronic enough.

It is present but buried under all the crap. All we need to do is to reform current religions, leave historical books for history and create new based on laws of spirituality and nature. Similar to New Age but without all the silly stuff.

How about a new religion with us at the centre and not "god".

All that passion, devotion, faith, worship, truth, love and peace focused on us for a change.

You can't replace a bad religion with a 'better' religion. It's still religion.

Taking ultimate responsibility for the consequences of our own actions would be a start. Instead of fobbing off the decision on our mistakes to the discretion of one sky daddy or another.

If we had a human based religion, we'd still need a "God".

Music.

Music is the religion that will save the world and defeat FEAR.

When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. ~ James Marshall Hendrix (the Prince of Peace)

Purple haze...Jesus Saves!!!
When the Sky Church Music starts playing again...we will be free.

Mark my words....they are not idle chat or filler.

DuncanIdahoGholem - Thanks for the kind words.admin edit: Removed childish, meaningless insults.


admin edit: see above... "Aryanwatch", suggest you GET A CLUE about the TAC of this site.


First of all,I'am not an Aryan. And secondly,my ID is AryanW-A-T-C-H. Which is not the same as A-R-Y-A-N. Thirdly, if you have an ID 'Intelligent';it doesn't mean that you are intelligent. I hope you understand what i mean.

And lastly, incidents are an outcome of circumstances and a whole race cannot be downplayed due to the actions of a few mad men.

Our sun is too small to go supernova (damn)... I think the sun would rather vacate the system. But I get your point though.

I would say Buddhism is *the* religion. That's my 2 cents.

It won't be a religion that will save the world but it will be a shift in collective awareness of man. The observed is the observer. The outer conflicts of the world are intimately connected and just a reflection of the inner conflicts.

Has anyone heard of the spiritual teacher Krishnamurti? He was way ahead of his time and many people believed he was a manifestation of the christ/buddha consciousness. He taught how most of the worlds problems are down to rigid belief structures, the overuse of the intellect in our day-to-day awareness and that oragnised religion because its root lies in knowledge moves us further away from god.

Also I highly recommend this video of a talk between Krishnamurti and physicist David Bohm talking about the solutions to the worlds problems. Awesome!!
The Future of Humanity - A dialogue between Krishnamurti and David Bohm
www.greylodge.org...




What is important is the state of full attention in which there is no border, no frontier, no limit.…When there is that attention which is not induced in any way, then you will see that it is the limitless. But it cannot be captured by the mind, nor can the path of time lead you to it. Seeing all this—and there is much more to it—seeing this whole extraordinary process of the mind, then all that the mind can do is…to be wholly attentive and verbally, intellectually, in thought, completely silent. It is in that state of attention that there is no question; therefore, that which has no time is.

That is why I feel so strongly that a revolution in the quality of the mind is necessary—not merely a change of ideas, thoughts, and beliefs, but a revolution in the quality of the mind itself. This quality of the mind cannot be learned, cannot be cultivated, can be seen only on the instant and forgotten on the instant, cannot be accumulated. But, once the mind sees this quality, this revolution in itself, then it will never lose it. That is why it is very important not to be merely respectable, not to be petty, but to cease all this activity, to break away from this terrific weight of respectability, which does not mean to become disreputable. To break through everything, on the instant, so that the mind lives all the time in a state of noncontinuity—that is full attention."


Also there's a few videos of Krishnamurti on YouTube and Google Video.

Well as for Christanity and Islam, they both forsee an "End of the Wolrd as we know it" event, before the savior will return. (Or before the messiah comes)
Most Jews are still waiting for the Messiah to come, the savior who will come and put an end to all of this, but these things are happening noe because of the LACK of a Messiah, but because we are people. We as people have destroyed this world so utterly, look at global warming as the physical example. Then you have everyhting you listed from wars and genocides to every other awful thing that could happen.

We have built this mess, and we WILL have to deal with it, own up to it.
But there will be deliverance in the end. Messiah WILL come! and Messiah WILL deliver us from this mess we have created.

Shalom for the Earth!

Final answer: religion of reason and love.


The answer would be Buddhism, which talks about love and compasssion. In all honesty if we all let our ego's go and quit being so greedy and work as communities we would have as many problems in the world as we do.

All religions teach peace. The closest thing to a violent religious teaching (that I know) is that Muslims are allowed defensive war. It is the misinturpitations of these religions that lead to religious wars, or the fact that others believe in a different religion than you do. So if there were no religious disputes at all, the Middle East would be a much nicer place, and we wouldn't have to invade to make sure that they don't stop supplying us with oil, which would kill our economy if they did.

And what exactly is your point? What exactly is 'chaos'? Is it anarchy? Or is it something else?

Care to explain?

Situation today, and it will get worse with World War 3 soon. Then after millions die and people see no religion is helping, then they will accept New World Order. Basically it's about us, do we accept new violence and manipulation or not. I don't see masses rejecting political propaganda, even more, masses are more and more ready to finally show muslims and muslims hope to show us their god. World War 3 will save the world because people are too ignorant to say NO today. But they will tomorrow.
