buddhism is one of the few religions which i have almost no disrespect for. you did, however, leave out the assertion that when one dies they are reincarnated into a human, animal, plant, and whatever else buddhists have a soul. also that one shouldn't seek pleasure or pain, but to have neither. btw, no disrespect. it's a relief to hear people posting relevant replies. you may not believe me, but it's been kinda stressful trying to convince everybody that when i ask for a religious debate i'm not also saying "please harass me, you have nothing better to do".

no, you're not. he made no assertions about anybody's character, only their intelligence.

but adolf hitler was a genius...one of the most brilliant men when it comes to diplomacy i have ever studied.
just because he used his gift in a negative way does not make him an idiot...a jerk, but not an idiot

Naw, never was going to happen
and if he would not have betrayed russia at the time that he did, he would have taken most of europe and a good part of asia.
that being said, i think hitler was a horrible person.
but back on topic:
how do i know god is real? you ask
mewithoutyou says it best "God is love and love is real..."
i personally am a nondenominational christian and will be untill i see miracles performed through any other name other than jesus.
Adolf Smittler, read the books "Case for a Creator" "Case for a Christ" and "Case for Faith" all 3 of these books take a scientific look at pro-religion.

Well... My religion is based on faith. I mean, I know it's true, but so does every other person of religion... err most at least. Since it's by far the most controversial subject, I'm definatly not going to try and prove my God exists but I do believe so.

Despite what Hitler did He did have a great mind. He was one of the greatest speakers and most influencial men of the 20th century. He was definatly not an idiot his mind was probably far more supirior than your own. Just because he chose to go a certain path with his Mind dose not make him any less intellegent. He could have done great things if he wanted to . And technically he did do great things they just were not very nice.
