a book ahead of its time, page-3

when the Bible was composed, China was by far the most technologically advanced society in the world

there is nothing in the bible that did not exist in other cultures at the time

the bible was not ahead of its time

both the Indians & Chinese were fully cognisant in the laws of nature

further, the Indian & Chinese not only comprehended the physical & social laws but, unlike the Bible, they comprehended the psychological laws of ultimate happiness

the Bible had to wait until Jesus arrived on the scene before it explored higher laws of happiness (but still, it was & never has been complete)

if we ourselves have never thoroughly studied other religions then our unleared claims have no merits

in short, the bible was not ahead of its time

its best claim to being ahead of its time is an equitable society espoused by Moses (despite its violent punishments)

the impression here is none of the Xians here have found any extraordinary happiness in their lives, since they keep focusing of material science

what a waste of life
