THINK for yourself. Question Everything




This is more along my line of thinking,  “Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.” ~ Buddha.

I have been investigating some of the oldest texts known to man, the RigVeda, the kesh temple hymn and Instructions of Shuruppak when I came across the quote above attributed to Buddha.

It would be good if other religions promoted the same type of thinking.  What a world we would live in if all peoples lived by the above rules.
