Title: The Karma symbol and overall Karma is a pagan idea.
Post by: JesusGod-Pope666.Info on September 30, 2020, 07:42:42 am
May I propose to use another symbol and changing of the word Karma - to something else? :)

Like do we really wanna promote satanic paganism. Anyway, Just something that stuck out as I'm a former Satanist.

Dearly regards

where do you see the karma symbol?
In the meantime If you want you can change translation to whatever you want, or simply disable the karma system if you are not using it.

Absolutely. :)  It's always good for what ails ya.

Karma is not an inherently satanic concept though. It's Hindu, originally, and Hindus do not worship Satan.

You are entitled to your opinion, and anyone else is entitled to think you are wrong.

sigh
If I remember correctly somewhere in that readme is said to love others? Or was it to burn infidels? Don't remember.

It's a forum software, it has nothing to do with religion, please keep this stuff out of my sight, whatever your credo is.
There are people that believe in whatever they want? Fine, as long as they don't want my money or rule what I should eat, or my first born (good luck with that, you'd have first to find a woman that wants to have a first born with me), etc.
Thanks.

Now, back to karma: you don't like it?
You can change it.
In the code has always been like this and I'm not interested in changing it just because someone doesn't like the word, sorry... no, never mind, I'm not sorry at all.

Not an opinion and of cause they can disagree but it won't change the facts ;)

No problem the other is there and no need for 2. Although I do wonder what it did not like that I wrote.

Quote"The symbol itself dates back at least to the fourth century B.C., and has been identified with the Eastern philosophical religions of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. In the Western world it has long been adopted into the symbolism of myth, magic, astrology, and witchcraft.

A book, Black Magic, White Magic, explains the Yin-Yang like this:

    "Another ancient magical sign called the yin-and-yang first appeared sometime before the 3rd century B.C. in China. This emblem became a favorite of sorcerers and mystics throughout the Orient because it, too, embodies so many possible meanings."

QuoteKarma (car-ma) is a word meaning the result of a person's actions as well as the actions themselves. It is a term about the cycle of cause and effect. According to the theory of Karma, what happens to a person, happens because they caused it with their actions. ... Karma is not about punishment or reward.

So as it’s used for rewarding or not a persons post then I think the name and term is perfectly acceptable. If you want to interpret it in a different way that’s your prerogative, however in my opinion the vast majority will take it as quoted above.

Well... Hopefully the hindues find out they have been deceived like most of the rest of the world.
Billions of people heading straight for the Lake of Fire without Jayshua/Jesus :/
The Devil is a Master in deception and misleading people.

Well... Took me many years to figure out.

Right. So now you have all the zeal of a kid with a new toy.

Tell me something: if you were wrong before, how can you be sure that you're right now? You're fallible. By your own admission you have a record of fallibility, so you could just as well be wrong now too.

Might pay to consider that before getting too puffed up with your own righteousness.

I've been researching for around 20 years I guess, been Christian now for a good amount of years and done lots of research. I think we have more then enough to point to it being true ;) And the truth usually gets censored, just like on SMF, because there is really not a re-bottle against it so easier for the Devil to burn some books, and the people as well.

My website have more then 40GB of material on lots of questions, but really, it's not like I've just become Christian - I've been it for some time now. Either you will be mislead by the Devil or go with the Truth. Anyone should investigate if what I claim is true - lots of bullturders around misleading people, I just try to be the Light in a Dark world as good as I can be.

What is your background m8?

By the way I'm writing here with your dark theme on :) Well coffee theme :P

My background is a minion of Satan from birth. That's why I make dark themes. I hate the light. I even named one of my old themes "Prince of Darkness".

Well you still have some time for repentance you know, so... But that is up to you. In any case, yea I remember you made a theme named that. I think I tried it with the coffee theme.

That's becoming boring to be honest, even as trolling goes...

Agreed. I have been unapproving and removing pists from this thread, yet he is still persistance.
