[QUOTE="Archived_member15, post: 182794, member: 17438"] Dear Tejwant ji, Thank you for your post. Why is this, a topic for biblical scholars to discuss, even relevant to the moral message conveyed by the teaching I referred too? Did I ever insinuate that Jesus "wrote" anything? As you correctly noted he chose not to write anything but rather taught his disciples by word and example and exhorted them to pass this living tradition down to others. The Buddha never wrote any first-hand documents either. Rather his teachings were written down by Buddhist scholars well over a century and more after his death. With Jesus scholars can agree on a "Q" sayings source on the basis of the synoptics, a core set of sayings. "Q" can be dated to about AD40-50, Mark - the first gospel - to AD60. With Islamic Hadith we are talking at least two centuries after Muhammad's death. This in itself is immaterial though. I was not aware that we were discussing biblical scholarship? All that matters vis-à-vis what I am saying is what has been recorded of the Buddha and Jesus' teachings and the morality therein. This is a personal judgement about the perceived irrationality of Christian dogma that, to my mind, has nothing at all to do with the topic at hand except to insult the intelligence of the person you are conversing with (in this case [I]me[/I]), which for me is a low shot. Please aim higher than that next time. What does that serve or contribute to this discussion? [I]Hmm[/I]... Lets keep civil with each other, please. No, it shows you do not understand what this recorded saying of Jesus is actually saying, for if you knew it in context, then you would look at another first century document known as [I]The Didache. [/I]This was written around AD 50-100 and is an important early Christian source. In it you will find this: You thus assumed Jesus to be meaning something that he wasn't. Early Christians understood exactly what you said above and in fact the Didache attributes that final phrase "[I]you shall have no enemy[/I]" to Jesus. This last truth should be self-evident. The word used in Greek for love is [I]agape [/I]which means self-donating love - in other words being loving actively towards someone. The whole essence of being loving towards one's "enemy" is so as too see no one as your enemy. This realization of having no enemies can only come from first doing good for those whom you are wont to identify as "enemies" and then wishing them well. The rest of my post is irrelevant because you misunderstood a saying attributed to Jesus in Matthew and Luke? Ok..... [/QUOTE]
