Re1igion is a word that is more accurately applied to the Middle Eastern Abrahamic cultures. Jud@ism, Christi@nity and is1am are re1igions. The origin of the word re1igion, from the Latin, is re-legare which means a legalistic system of rules given by Gawd or 'bound by rules'. The usual idea is that the practitioner of a re1igion is bound up in rules or laws. This especially applies to the three Abrahamic re1igions of Jud@ism, Christi@nity and is1@m, whereas the spiritual practices of India are called a Dharma Culture. The main difference is re1igions generally have one book of rules and stories whereas a Dharma culture has a library of spiritual and material knowledge aimed at understanding who we really are and how to properly use everything around us. The phrase Dharma Culture is a more accurate descriptor for India, as compared to the 'Indian re1igion' or 'Indu re1igion'. At the core of the Abrah@mic re1igions is a set of rules given by Gawd that we are told we must follow because a specific vision of Gawd and His pr@phet said so. That is not the basis of the Vedic Spiritual Library of India. India does not have a single book or an authoritarian/disciplinarian Gawd, it uses an entirely different approach to the question of who we are and it is certainly more philosophical than a re1igion. It has a library of self-actualizing s@cred knowledge, rather than just one d@gmatic book. So don't give your preachings to us Mr. Charlie

Dear, i came across few Jehowas Witness who claim that blood tranfusion is like eating blood and is forbidden as per bible(their scriptures)! They even had a no blood card with them!! What are your views on this? Their faith itself is allowing them to watch their children die without required blood tranfusion!!

Why not ? they are always digging into bible!! And they rather take pride in their so called capability to answer any questions raised!!
Discounting all the gowds of polytheists, people arrive at only one gawd by citing one reason or another,and citing the same reasons any rationalist can easily disprove the existence of only one Gawd!!

a perfect equality cannot be reached in a earthly living, that is why the kingdom of heaven is promised

And for that "promised" kingdom of heaven which will never be delivered we should make our life on earth a living hell!!

You are right!! They must be feeling superior to humans when they see that humans blindly believe in God,if their thought process allows it!
You are entitled to your beliefs, however absurd they may be. But at least try to understand what science says, even if you do not like it. For a start, there is a good book called "The Selfish Gene" by Richard Dawkins. Read it if you have time.
