Book: The ashes of our fires

So actually does not happen and in probability theory this should not happen, but life happens and not such, therefore scientists invented the hypothesis that the laws of probability theory are not applicable to intelligent beings.

When one deacon, who came to Shambhala after father Seraphim, uttered in her presence: "There is sin, the killing of recalcitrant heretics", - Jeanne wanted to immediately escape from this place, and not because she felt natural aversion to killing in General.
She had to kill, and she was sure that continue will have no time. But to kill because of a dispute about where God lives and what his name is or what words to pray to him is Jeanne thought the height of madness.

- You talked about eternal damnation - but there is nothing eternal under the sky. Every sin is considered, and the punishment meted out. Who did not atone for sins in this world - will get punishment for that. For every sin in isolation - the pain and blood, anguish and fear. All debts to the last will punish you the owner of dark areas and then go to the heights of light.
Forever? - hopefully asked the young man.
"Who knows," replied Jeanne. - They say that those who are bored with heaven, are born again among people to go all the way again.
- Unless Paradise can be boring? - surprised the inquisitive boy.
- Eternity is a very long time...

- My black cardinal says that heaven is a terribly depressing place, where you can go crazy with tedious singing of the angels and of suffering insomnia because the light never gives way to darkness, - has told the King of the East. - So is it worth to suffer all through life, denying themselves the basic pleasure of banging my head on the stone floors of churches and give his secrets to the priests in confession to the death to get into this crap? Isn't it better to sin recklessly and faithfully serve the Prince of Darkness and Lord of Shadows?
- And what about the torments of hell?
- Hellfire is for those who serve God but do not refrain from sin. They are believers - they need. As his servants, Satan does not offend, and they spend eternal life in feasts, balls and orgies. And after all that interesting. Disembodied souls in heaven love don't do - it's common knowledge. They have flesh there, and the place unsuitable for such unclean occupations. But in hell the souls of the sinners are drawn in full.

Love your neighbor - taught Son of man, and is well known.
Controversy raises another question - who should be attributed to others.
Think - what could be bessporno? But this is precisely the vague dogma that the ambiguity of his attracts the broad masses of the people, inexperienced in the intricacies of creeds.
After all, if it was said: "thou shalt Love every man more than himself," then there would be no room for maneuver. And what about then the crusaders, the inquisitors, the conquistadors, Nazis and terrorists that, while not denying the words of God without regard to him to do the extermination of people?
How to destroy enemies, heretics, infidels, infidels and subhuman, if faith teaches us to love all people for who they are?
But does it really teach that?
After all, dogma was vague and allows for different interpretations.
Faith teaches us to love our neighbors. But heretics, Gentiles, heathen, and subhuman - are they near?
The middle is the one who thinks the same as you and doing the same as you. And the one who walked away, the one who lives differently - it is not quite the middle. And the more his way of life and way of thinking is from your - the less, this is intimacy.
And those who are not middle - is sure to love?
* * *
Sure, they heard another commandment:
- Thou shalt not kill!
But there is no help it is easy to think of what it really means.
"You shall not kill the neighbor", - and nothing else!
And those who are not middle - why not to kill.

Truly the most terrible weapon of mass destruction is a person who has lost control over his instincts. No wonder some scholars say that the man is just a ravenous monkey, kooky motivated violence.

I don't understand how people can just one year so to escape.
- You just can't escape from captivity, the old fallacies, ' answered then the wise, the Eastern king. - Do you still believe that people had once been civilized.
- I always thought that normal people most. Not so many in those days were those who for religious reasons refused to INN or consume foods with a barcode.
- The norm is ever changing, and most of any weight is conformists. I was also surprised when in the late eighties the Soviet people are pushed to be baptized.
- I never believed in God and in all these stories, but I always thought that religion is basically focused on creation.
Basically religion is anything not focused, shaking his head the King of the East. - Militant Islam may be a religion purely peaceful people and peaceful Christianity is to bless the soldiers for the ruthless extermination of enemies. Religion is just the most convenient to divide people into friends and foes. He who believes and prays differently from you - stranger, and therefore not worthy of pity. And when it breaks the old life and not yet arranged new, it is especially important to stay close to her and to fear strangers.
