Comment: Thank you

I like the idea of purgatory where noone gets punished as I said in my reply above.

However, while I do believe there is only one God. I don't see why the same God couldn't have manifested himself many times in history. The teachings of Hindu and Buddhism are so very similar to Christ's teachings and they predate Christ. The teachings of Mohammed are also very similar and the Qur'an says that Christians have tainted Christianity. I believe that to be true the way Henry 8(I think 8th???) started the Anglican Church and Queen Bloody Mary and so many other leaders twisted and translated the Bible I do believe much has been lost in translation

I heard a good comparison once that went like this, "To read the Gospels of Christ without understanding Roman culture or Rome's war on Judaism is to read The Diary of Anne Frank without knowledge of the Holocaust."
