Because i can tell you this the experience was special and it influenced me deeply changed my life direction forever

Ok.

If a Hindu says that he had a personal experience with Shiva, Kali, Krishna or another Hindu deity, do you think that he was hallucinating, or not?

The Catholic Daemons are actually pagan gods bastardised in order to combat paganism

I can not say if or what he saw was authentic, but i will not automatically dismiss it as a hallucination

I didn't dismiss what you experienced as an hallucination, I said that it is quite possible that you were hallucinating.

thats not completely true some did become labeled as demons but then again most of them are. look at lilith shes in the old testament shes a succubis there, before that though she was adams first wife. That has nothing to do with the catholics

Sure anything is possible, but in my eyes and heart it wasnt

Why would you automatically believe any Christian who say that they had a revelation but you wouldn't apply the same standard on a Hindu saying the same thing?

How do you know that a person who says that he talked with God was not hallucinating??

Ps: If you feel that you had a revelation, I am not saying that you were hallucinating. I am saying that it is quite possible that you did.

I am not trying to disrespect you, I am merely trying to understand your point of view.

Because the person wasnt hallucinating

Your words, not mines.

How would you know which one is saying the truth and which one is not?

I meant to one's that became prominent after the Catholic Church had been founded or rather, the imagery of them, such as Pan and Lucifer.

What about Gandi?

And by the way what kind of loving god creates children then brings them up in a world of devils, cancer, pain, and darkness?

I really want to know the answer to this question.

If god is love then how could s/he tolerate suffering on such a grade scale?

of all people your gonna pick and choose my words

 

[Trequartista]

Well, it certainly appears to me that you were saying that if a person says he had a personal experience, than he was not hallucinating.

I am not picking and choosing your words.

Because the suffering is the consequence of our free will. He doesnt make our decisions, we do. Our choices and free will bring the suffering. For instance God doesnt make the drunk driver drive drunk and kill someone. The driver chooses to drink till inebriation ignoring his conscience
and then drive. His decision then causes an accident and a death. His decisions not Gods

What I said earlier is that some people actually have revelations, that in no way says that every christian does and others dont

We haven't had a good 'religion' thread in quite some time.

Lucifers imagery comes from judiaisim first my friend you know the adversary, the snake in the garden etc

This seems pretty clear to me:

How do you know that a person who says that he talked with God was not hallucinating??.

Because the person wasnt hallucinating

I never said that you said that every Christians have revelation, I said that you would believe a Christian who would say that he had a revelation but you wouldn't apply the same standard with a Hindu, for example.

This one is actually very good, even though it seems to be me against the world lol

This seems pretty clear to me:

umm that wasnt the question that I answered that answer with. That answer was about my experience
