[QUOTE="ISDhillon, post: 21715, member: 1987"] [SIZE=3]Jass singh Ji,[/SIZE] [SIZE=3] [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]I have read quite a bit of what you personally think on this and many other websites but you know my worldview and therefore it is futile to think I am going to agree with your style of debate, You have at places referred to the need for a reasoned debate this is a farce that attempts to subliminally usher a paradigm shift in our way of thinking, we are not here for that we are here to show how our philosophy and paradigm is incompatible with the claim for divinity of Christ, from all your posts to date they have all been your personal opinion of somebody else’s personal opinion but you have the audacity to ask me how I can prove someone’s personal opinion is true or false, the whole of Christianity is based on living in hope that you are right, there is no proof whatsoever, Jesus Christ never wrote down that he was god, I too could write a book about a mythical character from history but ultimately it would remain a myth like the candy man or snow white. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3] [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]A part of interfaith dialogue requires for their to be an ounce of empathy, that you can dip your toe in the water of Sikhism but not become engulfed by it, in that sense you will therefore understand that flesh cannot be god, you all take the blood of Christ and the bread to form the flesh, and as such you symbolically form the body of Christ therefore the flesh is the object of your worship and your soul is some thing static that has no purpose, Sikhism is incompatible with this type of belief we believe it is bani that is god not the gurus body the body is a vehicle, we could accept the divinity of Christ if he had wrote a book himself but he did not therefore the bible is nothing but an unauthorised biography.

[/SIZE] [SIZE=3] [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Moving on with the discussion you then go on in one post to say that the gurus never claimed divinity and sidetrack the point in Sikhism that god does not take birth but it is infact the word which is god not the flesh which is an anit-sikh principle therefore will not ever be viable (god is all powerful spirit who creates all flesh and imbibes all flesh he never needs to become apparent in a human form cos he pervades me also its just I am operating in dualism and so too were those who wrote the bible that is why there are so many mistakes in the bible)and there are countless references to that in sggs and no I do not care for hermeneutics’, you cannot set the rules for religious interpretation then expect all to jump on the same bandwagon, the rules of interpretation are subject to your scripture so we will let your scripture defined by them.
