    does a christian become a christian, muslim a muslim, hindu a hindu, etc. Why are there so many different religions? Why are all of them wrong? (From one religions point of view, it is the true way to heaven/enlightenment, thus all other religions must by definition be wrong). If so many people, with different beliefs, believe they're right, mustn't they all be wrong? -- You see me driving down the street I look so f-ing good, yeah! We're smokin' weed and doing dirt in my Tommy Hilfiger hoodie, ha yeah, ha yeah, uh! We're gonna keep talking bullshit about you Cuz nobody be frontin' me and my crew! Cuz I'm a hip hopper, yes I am! Sarcasm...

        All that WTL will end up doing is making you question your beliefs then sell your soul to Satan for the ability to monopolize the PC OS market. Or it'll just make you want to code some more.

            Vivekananda is a clever man in some peoples eyes. A heretic in others. -- You see me driving down the street I look so f-ing good, yeah!

            Who are we to say that the heretics have not found one way to the truth. Branding people a heretic or an intellectual adds nothing to it. We should take relevant things regardless of where or who they come from. Anyways, another relevant one. Truth is a pathless land - Krishnamurthy This is a debate that can never be proved by logic and intellect. People, at some point, will need to stop seeing God as a "being" or an "energy source" or something... It probably is none of these and all of these. The infinite cannot be understood in the sphere of the finite. I think God can never be understood... It can only be realized and only when we realize it and "become" God we can claim to have found it. Else, we are all finding our ways and we have not reached it (All of us, without exception). We can only understand the teachings of Jesus, Buddha or whatever by really achieving that spiritual state. Otherwise, we are all just speculating and fumbling around. Taking a little piece of truth, interpreting it according to our capabilities and living with it. This is a continuous process. Well, people will probably bash me for saying that we must "become" God. But I think that is everyone's final destiny, bar no one. We will all come to it eventually. Some faster, some later. But ultimately this is who we are. We are all divine and into divinity we will go. But anyways, I do not think we will achieve anything through discussion. Our experiences will one day lead us to the source. Pankaj Without struggle, there is no progress
