I forget how many different versions there were from the start. And again.....these books were written by man, inspired by God. Halfway through the show, it brings up the topic of how some very important books- were purposely left out.<br />And that is just Christianity.<br />So with that said, and no I did not read Shogun, but I do believe I understand what you are getting at. It's a cultural based thought process and where you begin in life basically, is what is going to be inherent somewhat, in your thought processses of right and wrong/good and evil.<br />And I'm I a 100% sure that what I believe is correct. No- yes I do have a deep faith.......but would I bet my home on being the "correct" one- NOPE!<br />I can only follow what I believe to be good in my heart, and believe me, so many times in my life, I've faltered, like most people.<br />But keeping it at its simplest and purest of thought processes, I tried everyday to follow the "golden rule" and forgive myself when I fall short on that one. And pray that my actions will not inflict any form of negativty on anyone else.<br />Sorry, I'm sure I'm getting way off topic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5515940157773021374.post-54952960970813627302009-05-24T15:43:41.281-07:002009-05-24T15:43:41.281-07:00I think you missed my point.

Other cultures like Japan and China have a different value system. How can you be sure which system is correct? In fact I don't think either is "correct".

Evil- that is the most selfish act one can do to inflict any type of pain, hurt & etc...(very negative results) -knowingly, and that is key for me.

If you are an agnostic or atheist, my goal for you would be to recognize what Albert Einstein understood about the universe - that its amazing design demands the existence of a creator God.

I will not go to the extreme of saying we have no spiritual soul because all living and non-living things are created through energy. Doesn't mean it is necessary to worship the energy but there is nothing wrong with recognizing it and showing appreciation for life.
