I find these topic very interesting. It's too bad some of the peoplewho read these sites are idiots and have nothing positive to offer the world. They should at least appaud what others have done to bring cutlure into our life. Or maybe they don't have time with all the lotto tickets they rub and cigarettes they smoke. We know them, they walk among us.

So I take it no one took pictures of the buddha's, that would have been something to see. I get amazed at what hides in the different countries-and are kept secret do to governments or religious beleifs. So now I am curious what the pictures mean, do you think the cave was a temple, then? I hope they can save the paintings and learn more about the history of this wonderful find.

It's like this for me: The chicken and the egg. Which came first? God or man? I personally believe man came first. Remember the "Mother"? She gave of her bounty to make sure mankind didn't kill himself off. Then came gods of Fire, Water, Air, and Earth. This was the religion of mankind . A couple thousand years' later, Surprise! Same Gods; different names. Same functions, same requirements from humans to appease them. Then came Jesus. He was a fascinating man with truly good ideas. He had to martyr himself so more people would be drawn to his beliefs. Same ideals as all over, except he preached love, kindness, and honesty. I still talk to the Mother. I feel so secure and peaceful when I talk to her. Sometimes Jesus is there, too.

the christians defaced and destroyed the arts and temples of other cultures as well. two examples would be in eqypt and south america. some of the eqyptian temple writings and art was destroyed but other areas were covered with plaster to hide it. thanks to this some art was preserved in great shape. in south america churches were built right on top of mayan temples. records were destroyed and the locals were told that if they didnt accept jesus they would be put to death.
it makes me chuckle at the ignorant posts here with the idea islam is somehow unique in its treatment of other cultures. read a book sometime...geez

I am being nasty and mean spirited now so I will quit this site and go run errands. I will give all of you who do not like to debate religion the space you dearly want.

good point to bring up...the old testament had no concept of hell...or even a promise of humans going to heaven...thats all a christian invention

I think that I read somewhere the "a thousand years is one day and one day a thousand years". Hum, where could that have been? By the way, monotheist is an interesting word. I am positive that it means adhering to the belief in one god. Especially since mono is a root work from Latin meaning "one". However, it is so close to the word atheist, which I am not, and what do your call the Hindi who have 5 million gods, polytheist?
