Can I post about my Christian belief anywhere on this forum?

Post by Ervin »

Hi everyone.

I was wandering if I can please post about my Christian belief anywhere here on this forum?

I have been into buddhism in the past and other religions but I am a Christian now and I would like to post my views/knowledge.

Thanks

Not really. It’s against the TOS. However I personally congratulate you on finding what is appropriate for you. I’m


from the TOS:
COMPARATIVE RELIGION

This is not a "comparative religion site". It is a site to learn about and discuss the Buddha's teachings without animosity. While some comparative discussions may be permitted at the discretion of the Moderation Team, it will be allowed only to the extent that such reference serves to illuminate a point about Buddha Dharma.

2. I support Mingyur R and HHDL in their positions against lama abuse.

Lama: Even If you had died the 3 Jewels would still have protected you. (DW post by Fortyeightvows)

There is no suffering to be severed. Ignorance and klesas are indivisible from bodhi. There is no cause of suffering to be abandoned. Since extremes and the false are the Middle and genuine, there is no path to be practiced. Samsara is nirvana. No severance achieved. No suffering nor its cause. No path, no end. There is no transcendent realm; there is only the one true aspect. There is nothing separate from the true aspect.

Well, if it is classed as 'contemplative' you could maybe post here:

We do occasionally have good inter-faith discussions. On the other hand, if you only want to post in Buddhist forums to turn us all into Christians, that's (1) probably a waste of time because most of us are here because we have rejected Christianity and (2) totally inappropriate wrt forum rules.

No, you can't. It's explicitly against the terms of service to proselytize here. We wish you the best on your new spiritual path.

To the original poster.

The sister site Dharmapaths.com does support the dialog you would like to engage. https://dharmapaths.com/index.php

Hope this helps.
