I got a lot of homework since school started up again :( @coolestguyever I thought they were called kufiyas (sorry on the spelling) and that hindus wore turbans mainly because hair is something they only show in private with family. I didn't think it was required for muslim men to cover their heads, I thought it was a tradition based on their environment... @slimebeast .. my point with what I was saying is that, following the doctrines which would be...let's say more tolerable in this life. I know the beauty of Christianity is that it has an afterlife....but to get there the idea seemed to be to reject this life. That's what I thought was different about Islam because it also has that same conceptualization of the afterlife. |
I understood your point.
And I agree that Christianity is a lot about "rejecting" this life - but in my opinion that makes sence (but not to reject this life as monks do though, it's not supported in the Bible that you should isolate yourself from people and only study and pray).
Christianity acknowledges that this world, this state of existence is fundamentally flawed.
