    Do You Think That Sikhism Is Right/From God?

    Basically I'm asking what reasons you have for believing in Sikhi. I ask this because at the moment I'm reading the Guru Granth Sahib Ji, I am near the beginning and so far I have not read anything that convinces me, that could change though I have much to read. I just want to know from...

"Atheism is a necessary protest against the wickedness of the churches and the narrowness of the creeds. God uses it as a stone to smash...

    Why Are We Not Allowed To Cut Hair When It's Ok To Cut Nails, Since Both Are Created By God?

    I understand one of the reasons we are not supposed to cut/trim our hair is because we want to keep the 'roop' given to us by God intact. But even the nails were given to us by God. Why is it ok to cut them regularly and not hair? Both nails and hair are made up of dead tissue and hygiene...

    Do Religious People Really Believe In God?

    Most people don't believe in God. At least not really. I'm speaking primarily of people who claim to believe in God. My assertion isn't that no one really believes in God. It's merely that far fewer people than you might think really do believe in God. This assertion does not itself...
