Hi, I currently have the below thread in the History and Literature forum.

http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=124603

In that thread which has over 14,000 posts I give some historical and other evidence why I believe Christianity is true. That thread has been closed temporarily. Until the thread is reopened I've decided to have a different thread. In this new thread I would like members of religions "other than Christianity" to give evidence why you believe your religion is true. Thanks

Once again please do not post evidence for Christianity in here.
 
In my just over 0 posts in this thread I have shown that

1/ some people were prepared to die for religion x
2/ somebody famous believed it
3/ somebody famous said it was quite good
4/ umpteen presidents of country y believed in x
5/ I can't believe that x isn't true

Now DOC, what is wrong with my evidence?

DOC: I may be wrong but I think this might not be the best board to make such a request: would an overtly religious place not be a better bet?
 
I think it comes down to the same evidence as shown for Christianity.

I believe X is true, because my holy book/ancient sayings/random other reason says X is true and I can show that there have been a few good people following my religion and some even were willing to die for it.

In other words. None

Are you saying Muslims, Scientologists, Mormons, God believing Jews etc. don't come in this religion thread?

I'm a pastafarian. Among the many delights that await me in the afterlife I am promised a stripper fountain and a beer factory.*

*I am a member of the reformed church of the FSM. The idea of a beer fountain is clearly ridiculous, the stuff will effervesce. I don't drink flat beer.

What is your evidence that the Flying Spaghetti Monster exists?

We're not talking about Christianity in this thread, read the OP, we're talking about all other religions. And for the purpose of this thread, please no hypothetical religions either.

Religion x and I have provided solid evidence for it. Not evidence that I believe it's true, I'm not going to dishonestly shift the goalposts now, but actual, cast iron, set in stone facts why it is true.

But, I'm going to be honest with myself, if you, DOC, can disprove my evidence I'll abandon x at once.

What do you mean? The evidence is plenty, does not the world exist? Have you never eaten pasta or have never had a beer?
Why would marinara sauce be so delicious if it wasn't devine?


Oh and to that heretic you quoted, beer factory?! No way, the fountain is the only truth! RAmen!

There is no religion X it is something you just made up. Give a real religion similar to religion X other than Christianity, because this thread is about all religions other than Christianity.
 
DOC someone recently taught me what a variable is: are you familiar with the concept and are you aware that it is often denoted by an x?

All religions are hypothetical

Your evidence does not follow logic. The fact that the world exists has nothing to do with something called the Flying Spagetti Monster. If it does what is your evidence?
