The paradox with Christianity is that gnosis is generally frowned upon in favor of faith; The very phenomenon of religion presupposes a recognition of the metaphysical. People who get obsessed with knowledge end up coming into obstacles such as pride in their ego. They may even start to play God, and inevitably abuse their powers, causing them the burden of sin. Many Christians will eschew the deeper and more profound meanings of the Gospel in favor of the words themselves, but it really can't hurt. Digging too deep and reaching the mysteries seems to be frowned upon. Just read the word, repeat the word, fear God and invoke the name of Jesus Christ judiciously seems to be the accepted rite of the plebs. But I think if you experience God, you would know that he is the same God that all sincere devotees worship. That said, I seem to believe that Geo-temporally, India is the spiritual heart of this World. There is enough evidence to suggest to me that either India plagiarized the Torah, or vice versa.

'plagiarized' was tongue in cheek, but the Truth is the Truth, so it's no miracle that two different religions get it right.

You might ask two Christians about God, and one might say that God is within, and the other could say that God is without. One might say that Jesus is the son of God, and the other might say that Jesus is God. Religions can get really complicated.

@J_G_ There's variety in every religion. That's why you only examine the Orthodox form of the religion to hold up for critique. Orthodox/Catholic Christianity does not shy away from the secrets (sacraments/mysterions).

This generation has been willfully ignorant and turned a blind eye to an entire millennium-worth of Christian mysticism plumbing the deep secrets of the religion. When Luther threw out half the Bible, the idea of "sin", and the goal of becoming righteous (sainthood/theosis), and then allied with Ottomans against Christian Europe, the age of saints was over.

lmaoooo

Alright, @Sar has been warned because '**Duplicated text**'.

So he doesn't accuse me of forum-sliding his "red pill":

“Say to the Israelites: ‘A woman who becomes pregnant and gives birth to a son will be ceremonially unclean for seven days, just as she is unclean during her monthly period. On the eighth day the boy is to be circumcised. Then the woman must wait thirty-three days to be purified from her bleeding. She must not touch anything sacred or go to the sanctuary until the days of her purification are over. If she gives birth to a daughter, for two weeks the woman will be unclean, as during her period. Then she must wait sixty-six days to be purified from her bleeding. “ ‘When the days of her purification for a son or daughter are over, she is to bring to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting a year-old lamb for a burnt offering and a young pigeon or a dove for a sin offering. He shall offer them before the Lord to make atonement for her, and then she will be ceremonially clean from her flow of blood. “ ‘These are the regulations for the woman who gives birth to a boy or a girl.

Are the religious reasons for circumsicion sufficient for continuing the practice today? Does that apply in a doctrinal context?

I don’t agree with circumsicion myself. That’s for jews.

I'm fine with both circumcision and uncircumcised. I prefer circumcision due to my culture & sanitary reasons

It’s common here in the US so I understand that

Men can easily clean their stuff even if they’re uncircumcised tho.

I just would feel bad to have my son mutilated. I just picture it same in essence as doing it to a female baby, as some backwards places do

Its not the same

Females mutilated takes away the pleasure nerves.. It comes from Satanic Islam.

Male circumcision comes from Jewish which is God

Male circumcision = sanitary

I still can’t agree with male circumcision. I want my son natural as he was meant to be

Bible says not to fight over circumcision

Let ppl do what they want

Men can still be sanitary uncircumcised, that’s a misconception

Its a Jewish tradition so not all ppl are Jewish

I’m not fighting to stop it but i don’t think it should be promoted at the same time

I do it because its American tradition

Its not supposed to be a fight Paul said Jews will be Jews and Greeks will be Greeks

Also regardless if he’s circumcised or not if he doesn’t wash himself there I can still get a UTI from sexual contact lol

I had a roommate who complained because her uncircumcised guy kept getting cuts & rashes

That’s his problem then

That doesn’t happen to all men

I have my own vaginal problems that not all women get

Apparently bc I’m small
