Christ, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.
Mormons believe that the concepts identified by such nonscriptural terms as
“the incomprehensible mystery of God” and “the mystery of the Holy
Trinity” are attributable to the ideas of Greek p... 阅读全帖 |

习了一段时间。一年多以前，因为因缘到了吧，皈依佛门。有幸进入了佛门的北大清华
-五明佛学院系统的闻思修行藏传净土法。末学天资愚苯，修得不好。但幸得好的老师
和师兄们的帮助，也觉得很有收获。末学有些基督教朋友，也问末学为什么皈依佛教？
末学给了他们一些英文资料。末学英文也不好。不知道是否合适，请各位师兄指正。

发帖数: 1948 | 47 楼上分析得很透彻。 赞一个！
话说对一般屁民如我等来讲，佛也好，神明也好，那还是有超自然性的，否则大家求神
拜佛请妈祖岂不没了意义？反过来讲， 基督教没了神性， 还有 Prophets, messiah,
Jesus, apostles, 和多如牛毛的saints, 这都是人，照样可以建一套宗教理论。 所以
中西宗教理论体系不一样，但reduce 到了practice, 都差不多了，毕竟人性和人性的
弱点都是一样的。
看来楼又歪了，回主题吧。 我觉得在中国信仰并不缺失，儒道释也渗透到了生活中的
每个角落， 哪怕是在破四旧的年代。 我们可能是无神论者， 但多多少少都有一点
buddhist/taoist/Confucianism的意识。看过一个报道，美国90%以上的人认为自己是
religious, 但其中一半以上的人从不去教堂！
所以老美问我有啥信仰， 我说我是buddhist，好歹我还是佛祖心中留的，见了庙都要
进去看看，烧个香啥的。（也是怕被传销基督的给粘上:). |

发帖数: 352 | 48 这个学期拿了一堂宗教课，有个问题需要大家帮忙， 问题是：
What is “Jewish messianic expectation.”? From whom will the Messiah be
descended? What is he going to do when he arrives?
我找了很久都没办法解决这个问题，希望高手赐教！！！感激不尽！！！ |

发帖数: 157 | 49 following SunnyDay's suggestion, I will introduce some edible mushrooms here
in case some find it useful. I have been living in New England area for 10
years, and I know edible fungi in this area well. For mushrooms collected in
southern states and along west coast line, I am not the to-go person for
accurate identification.
I will post useful links with pictures to edible mushrooms I found common in
New England, and I will report these mushroom when I first spot them in
their growing season.
