Re: Why Do You Think That Sikhism Is Right/From God?
Thanks for all replies, I will go read through each post and answer, so if I say something that has been proven wrong/countered in a later post, it is because I have not yet got to it.
My point of view is that, if one is to follow a religious book which governs their life and claims to be connected to god (as well as the existence of a god) it is not unreasonable to expect some proof that it is genuine.
Before I said that I would like -
Anything that can prove something like there is a god, sikhi is connected to god etc.
I would like some amazing knowledge, for example something that no one could have possibly known at that time.
Or an explanation of how the world was made.
Or maybe an incredible prediction for the future that no one could have possibly guessed, something along those lines.
To which you replied
I said that I would give a fair analysis, whether we agree that my analysis is fair only time will tell.
What would be accomplished is that I can get a better understanding of why Sikhi/SGGSJ does have a connection to god, if we come to no agreement then at least we had a discussion right?
If-
amazing knowledge, for example something that no one could have possibly known at that time.
Or an explanation of how the world was made.
Or maybe an incredible prediction for the future that no one could have possibly guessed, something along those lines.
are impossible to extract from any religious book, then how do you know it is genuine?
I don't understand the point of the book piece, the Babel fish is fictional? It sounds to me like it is making fun of the idea of god?
Logic too! You can't have a conscience without logic.
