Here's the truth in a nutshell: Man was created by God. Man sinned against God. Because God is holy and perfect, He will not allow sin to exist in His presence, so He booted man out of His presence. God still loved man, so God became a man, and died, so that He could pay for our sins, and by faith, we could be back in His presence for all eternity. All who reject this simple act of love, will burn for eternity. The choice is simple, choose Jesus and live.
please don't lump Buddhism in with all of the other religions.... its not even a real religion.
its only a religion 'for tax purposes'
it is a highly logical set of philosophies and derived ethics to which one should aspire in order to lead a fulfilling life. 99% of it is ZEN, and people of all faiths, and indeed those without faith, can be Zenists without realising.
@sandwichofadown For something to be regarded as a religion, it is not required to adhere to the concept of theism(the belief that at least one god exists).
youre right such as pantheism or belief in the spirit or the soul could be considered religions. as could star trek and jedi, but we dont call these religions in the same sense of the word as we do with christianity, judaism etc.
buddhism has no required beliefs, it requires only that you learn to recognise your own delusion and disfunction and work to find your own spiritual harmony
It fits much more appropriately in the category of a philosophy, just like jedi.
Thanks to everyone who wrote comments and liked this video. The book has it's own facebook page and I'd love it if you have a look at it there, and even better if you share it around! Thanks. God bless.

You could put 9/11 in the Islam chapter, though.
