[QUOTE="Archived_member15, post: 182797, member: 17438"] Thank you for your reply Tejwant ji, I think that I have given you ample thought process as well as a quote that explains the words attributed to Jesus on "love thy enemy" in context. Could you perhaps comment on the quote rather than merely ignore it because it is a quote? Why the aversion to a quote here or there? I admit I was quoting excessively in my last discussion with you but not this time. How? Why does it matter who I think taught it? The Gospel of Matthew says that Jesus said it, all that matters is the moral message it teaches which was what I was talking about in the first place. I believe that the gospel writers are handing on a genuine saying of Jesus. Most scholars would agree, placing it in Q but why on earth you want to discuss authenticity with me and why this is relevant to my initial point which was about similarity between religions, is unknown to me. Fair do's. And I explained that you are wrong in your interpretation of that saying. I therefore quoted the Didache, a document roughly contemporary with the gospels, which says the exact same thing you did about love having no enemies. This is how the Early Christians, as exemplified by the Didache, understood that saying of Jesus. The Buddha described it as an eternal law, not me. And if you would like to discuss the doctrine of the resurrection and the second-hand sourcing of the gospel writers, then please likewise start another thread. If true, why does it matter in relation to our conversation? You have brought this issue up out of thin air when it has nothing to do with my initial post. :kaurfacepalm: I gave an approximate date. Some scholars date it as early as AD 50, some as late as AD 120. Why does this matter? You still have not even commented on the quote. It is an answer to your interpretation of Jesus' words, explaining that the early Church interpreted it as meaning that love has no enemies. I mentioned a saying attributed to Jesus, that is all. I never mentioned the authenticity of the gospel sayings attributed to Jesus, their second-hand sourcing, or the doctrine of the resurrection. You brought this all up! Why, I don't know because you still haven't told me. I'm waiting. I am not upset. I merely do not see the need to a) mention the resurrection doctrine of Jesus which has nothing to do with the topic b) inferring that those who believe in resurrection because it is a tenet of one's faith are somehow lacking in reason. That is a judgement and unnecessary to state. I personally think it uncivil to infer that a person "lacks reason" on account of their adherence to a particular creed. I also think it is uncivil to declare that everything else they say is "irrelevant" simply because you disagree with them. What have actions 5 years ago got to do with anything? I explained "love thy enemies". You seem to have overlooked my answer entirely because you regard it as "irrelevant". Ok, you believe this, good but why does it matter? Amen to that. [/QUOTE]
