Cameron enters the class and takes a seat. "What jack said. Hinduism is a polytheology. There are lots of different gods and goddesses, some dieties actually have different incarnations. They believe in reincarnation and that if you're good in this life, you'll come back in a better situation."

So how does this differ from what we studied last week?

[identity profile] cameronmitchell.livejournal.com 2005-09-28 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
Buddhists don't want to reincarnate, they want to reach a higher state of being or 'enlightment' to stop coming back to Earth over and over again and reaching Nirvana.

*unsure* Eternal life and if they play their cards right they're quite comfortable?

Doesnt quite sound... hopeful, does it?

SO why beleive?

[identity profile] cameronmitchell.livejournal.com 2005-09-28 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
*frowns* Why wouldn't it be hopeful? They pretty much get eternal life and know they'll never end up just disappearing into nothingness. And if you're good to others that means you will get a life you can enjoy too. I don't think it sounds so bad.

You sound like a true optimist *grins*

I beleive boy, you may need to come with me someday for a journey or two... *teasing smile*

*chuckles* There's no point in being negative, you've got to move forward and just keep going because you always have a chance to get it right.

That actually sounds like fun, sir.

*smiles* Alright.

You so owe me for ripping off my answer.

[identity profile] cameronmitchell.livejournal.com 2005-09-28 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)
No, but if you want to study together...

[identity profile] anextimeagent.livejournal.com 2005-09-28 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you want to study together, or study together.

[identity profile] cameronmitchell.livejournal.com 2005-09-28 04:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Study together, I don't cheat on my Archie!

[identity profile] anextimeagent.livejournal.com 2005-09-28 04:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, hell. Okay. I'll be happy to use your brains instead of your body.

Cool. Sorry man, but I'm saving my virginity and all that.
