I got to thinking.
I'd like to do a comparison on the various religious founders.
We often focus on the negatives for those religions we do not like and the positives for those we do like. So, for each post, the rule is: you must come up with a phrase for BOTH instances below. As best as you can.
(1)
What are the most kindest of expressions - those that struck you as particularly very considerate and good intentioned.
(2)
What are the least kindest expressions - those that struck you as the most mean spirited or ill intentioned (just try your best).
Lets look at:
- Mosses
- Buddha
- Jesus
- Mohammad
- Joseph Smith Jr
- Ron Hubbard
I'm not religious but I received this via SMS once so I'll start with Buddha.
The Kindest of words (or at least a kind expression)
Have compassion for all beings, rich and poor alike; each has their suffering. Some suffer too much, others too little.
Those that were not so kind[while this one isn't all that mean - it was as good as I could find - maybe someone else can do better? It's about punishment]
One who unjustly inflicts punishment on the innocent
will eventually reap one of these possible confusions;
pain, great deprivation, physical injury,
heavy affliction or loss of mind,
prosecution by the government, devastation,
accusations, loss of family, loss of wealth,
loss of home by fire and upon his death
confinement for a time in the great confusion of hell.
When I have time I'll take a look into the other religious founders.
What do you guys think?
Don't forget to post you should have BOTH a kind expression and an unkind expression.
Cheers,
Michael
