Its a thought exercise, an abstraction exercise. If you can, imagine that all you know about your specific religion is a lie. Like all the religions along history that arise, faded and die, think that your religion is also a lie. What would you do?
- If you can't do it and go with the path "It can't be" or "I just can't cope with such an idea", don't bother posting. - Don't quote the bible, its pointless for the exercise, if you can't do it, you fall under the category above, of people incapable of abstract thinking
Quoting: MaybeTrollingU I would say that all other religions have the same basic concept in mind. That concept being: something greater than our common existence or experience exists. With so many others perceiving similar concepts, there must be an underlying truth. With TRUTH being self-evident, then the underlying concept could not be a lie, but a miss-perception of truth. So any belief that a religion is a lie would be a miss-perception of truth, and that the lie would be the refusal to accept the underlying concept. ?
