An Introduction to the Study of World Religions From the earliest known evidence of human religion by Homo Sapiens Neanderthalensis around 100,000 years ago to the present day, religion continues to be a very influential aspect of human lives. Today, there are numerous challenges and problems faced by humans from every possible background, location and social class. Every day people must face issues of health, safety and mortality. It is because of these daily challenges that religion continues to exist. Religion is the universal tool for explaining things which we do not understand through the context the known physical world. Although there are countless religions, each different from the other, they all serve the same purpose. Each answers questions which all humans seem to be programmed to ask: Why are we here? What happens when I die? How shall I live my life? Religion helps us to transmit our values from one generation to another, and influences the way we interact with the natural environment. It teaches us how to see ourselves in light of the universe and gives purpose and meaning to life.

Home E-Mail Download Lessons Interactive Quiz ... South America Christianity Christianity is based of the teachings of Jesus Christ, a Jew who lived about 2000 years ago in what we now call Israel. Jesus taught his followers to "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Almost two billion Christians live on every continent. They comprise the majority of people living in the United States and Canada (86%), Latin America (92%), Europe (76%) and Australia (85%). Christianity is also the most prevalent faith in Africa (48%). Christianity is a dominant force on Christians worship in churches led by ministers and priests. Most Christians practice acts of religious significance called sacraments. The sacraments include baptism, when a Christian joins the church; confirmation, when a Christian confirms his or her faith; and matrimony. The Eucharist is the holiest of Christian sacraments in many Christian churches. During the service, members of a church will eat a small wafer of bread. Christian tradition states that at the Last Supper before his execution, Jesus asked his followers to think of the meal as the body and blood he would soon sacrifice. Christian holy days include Christmas (the birth of Jesus), Easter (when Christians believe Jesus rose from the dead and ascended to heaven), and Lent, a forty-day holy period of penitence and self-denial.

136. Hitler's Christianity A compilation of source material to support the argument that Hitler thought of himself as a Christian. http://www.nobeliefs.com/Hitler1.htm

Hitler's Christianity To deny the influence of Christianity on Hitler and its role in World War II, means that you must ignore history and forever bar yourself from understanding the source of German anti-Semitism and how the WWII atrocities occurred. By using historical evidence of Hitler's and his henchmen's own words, this section aims to show how mixing religion with politics can cause conflicts, not only against religion but against government and its people. This site, in no way, condones Nazism, Neo-Nazism, fascist governments, or anti-Semitism, but instead, warns against them. by Jim Walker [The German words, "Gott Mit Uns" means God With Us and appeared on many Nazi soldiers belt buckles during WWII.

El español Financial Assistance requested FREEMASONRY is Permanently CONDEMNED Humanum Genus - Encyclical on Freemasonry - Promulgated on April 20, 1884 - Pope Leo XIII Preliminary Comments: From 1738 A.D. to approximately the 1950's the Catholic Church has consistently and strongly opposed Masonic institutions and their affiliates. Such evils as atheistic Communism and the destructive forms of Socialism are directly associated with Freemasonry (Mason - Freemason). In more recent years it has become evident that not only the Catholic Church has been under attack, but also, all God fearing Christian religious associations have become increasingly under the influence of Freemasonry (Mason - Freemason). Recently I asked these questions to a Christian gentleman in regard to comments he had made concerning Freemasonry: "Does the Masonic organization have specified goals for influencing or controlling various Christian churches? How does the influence of Masons / Freemasons corrupt Christianity?" The following are excerpts from his response: "You have asked some very good questions.

Author Christianity -Came to India first as a Message of Peace with the Apostle St. Thomas and then as a Colonial Power of the Portuguese and the British by Sudheer Birodkar Table of Contents The second largest religious minority in India is that of the Christians. The Indian Christians consist of three main sects viz. the Syrian Christians, Roman Catholics and Protestants. Christianity was, we are told, first brought into India only a few decades after the passing away of Lord Christ. But it was the apostle St. Thomas who is popularly believed to have introduced Christianity into India around the 1st century of our era. Thus Christianity seems to have come into India far before it had reached many European countries like Britain and Germany. A stained glass representation of the nativity of Lord Christ.

139. A New Ecumenism> The possible Buddhist origins of christianity. http://www.proaxis.com/~deardorj/ecumensm.htm

A NEW ECUMENISM BASED UPON REEXAMINATION OF THE "LOST YEARS" EVIDENCE James W. Deardorff Oregon State University September, 1994 Updated September, 2003 PRECIS The "lost years" evidence due to Notovitch in 1894 of Jesus being in India during his youth, along with its debunkings, are reexamined and the latter are found not to have been scholarly in any sense. Later evidence fully confirming Notovitch's find is presented. The implications that Jesus taught reincarnation and karma, not resurrection, are summarized and found entirely plausible. The ramifications this has for ecumenism with respect to the Eastern religions cannot be overstated, though for Christianity they remain unacceptable. Introduction I. The Primary "Lost" Years Evidence II. The Later Evidence III. The Reincarnation Question ... Endnotes Introduction It was in 1894 that news first reached the Western world of Buddhist manuscripts existing in Tibet indicating that the "lost years" of Jesus' youth had been spent in India. The alleged discoverer was Nicholas Notovitch, Russian journalist and war correspondent, who journeyed through Kashmir and Ladakh (Little Tibet) and then wrote a book about his findings, including a translation into French of the verses in Tibetan about Isa (or Issa) existing in the library of Himis monastery near Leh. and that his answers were ignored by later expositors who continued to debunk him.
