[QUOTE="Harjas Kaur Khalsa, post: 53799, member: 2125"] [COLOR=navy] [/COLOR][COLOR=black]Parma, do I ever say anything against YOU as a person? No. I say your opinions are not in accord with Gurmat, and this is why I do not accept them. You say I don't respond in a reasonable manner. What is reasonable?

Why is that unreason?[/COLOR] If you say the Guru is imperfect, makes mistakes, Sikh religion is man-made and thus changeable by your and others opinions, where would it lead? I don't see why you think everyone would accept your views, or assume people must have hard feelings toward you personally to disagree with them. [COLOR=navy] [/COLOR][COLOR=black]Veerji, if I use the reasoning, that Gurbani says Guru is united with Waheguru and thus cannot make mistakes, you tell me Im using ego.
