D) Taoism


Taoism has been connected to the philosopher Tao Tzu, who around 500 B.C.E wrote the main book of Taoism, the Tao te ching. Taoism holds that humans and animals should live in balance with Tao or the universal Taoists. Taoism does not Believe in God. Taosism does not have a God in the way the Abrahamic Religions do. There is no omnipotent being beyond the cosmos, who created and controls the universe. In Taoism the universe springs from the Tao and the Tao impersonally guides things or their way 

E.) Judaism


Judaism originated in Israel around 4000 years ago. What do Jews believe? Jews believe that there is a single God who not only created the universe, but with whom every Jew can have an individual and personal relationship.

The origins of Jewish faith are explained throughout the Torah. According to the text, God first revealed himself to a Hebrew man named Abraham, who became known as the founder of Judaism.

Jews believe that God made a special covenant with Abraham and that he and his descendants were chosen people who would create a great nation.

About Judaism

Shabbat is recognized as a day of rest and prayer for Jews. Observing Shabbat can take many forms, depending on the type of Judaism that a Jewish family may follow. Orthodox and Conservative Jews, for example, may refrain from performing any physical labor, using any electrical device or other prohibited activities. 

F) Islam


In Arabic, Islam means "surrender," or "submission," to the will of God. Islam was founded by the prophet Mohammed, who was born in Mecca around A.D. 570 and settled in Medina around 622. Muslims believe Mohammed was the last and most important in a series of prophets, including Abraham, Moses and Jesus.

Muslims have six main beliefs.

Belief in Allah as the one and only God.

Belief in angels.

Belief in the holy books.

Belief in the Prophets... e.g. Adam, Ibrahim (Abraham), Musa (Moses), Dawud (David), Isa (Jesus). ... 

Belief in the Day of Judgement... ... 

Belief in Predestination...

G) Christianity


Christianity originated with the ministry of Jesus, a Jewish teacher and healer who proclaimed the imminent kingdom of God and was crucified 

Christianity began in the 1st century AD after Jesus died and resurrected, as a small group of Jewish people in Judea, but quickly spread throughout the Roman empire. Despite early persecution of Christians, it later became the state religion. In the Middle Ages it spread into Northern Europe and Russia.

It is the largest and the fastest growing religion in the world with about 2.5 billion followers

basic beliefs of Christianity

Belief in God the Father, Jesus Christ as the Son of God, and the Holy Spirit. (Trinity)

The death, descent into hell, resurrection and ascension of Christ.

The holiness of the Church and the communion of saints.

Christ's second coming, the Day of Judgement and salvation of the faithful.

H. Jehovah Witness


Although they claimed to be christian, Jehovah’s Witnesses were founded by Charles Russell, a businessman from Pennsylvania, in 1869. Though raised under orthodox Christian teaching, he separated himself from the church because he didn't like its beliefs about the nature of Hell. So he started his own movement and began spreading it through written word.

Jehovah’s Witnesses believe in the God of the Bible, but deny the Christian understanding of God as a trinity of persons - they deny that Jesus is ontologically equal to God and affirm that God exists as a single person. They believe that Jesus is God's only literal creation and that Jesus created everything else. They believe that Jesus is the physical, human incarnation of Michael the archangel. They believe that Jesus did not raise from the dead in bodily form, but rather in spirit only. They believe that Jesus has come back to begin his millenial reign, starting in 1914, but that he came back invisibly. Only members of the JW church will be saved, and salvation is dependent on your works, specifically going on door-to-door “mission trips” to evangelize and bring others to the church. In fact, there are four requirements to obtain salvation and eternal life:

1)know God and his laws

2) obey God's laws, including living a moral life

3) be a part of the JW church, and

4) advocate for God's kingdom (i.e. go on mission trips).

The soul ceases to exist at death, and there is no Hell or eternal suffering for those who were not saved - they stay non-existent - only the saved are “reborn” and, of those, only 144,000 go to heaven with God, the rest live in paradise on earth. Source; Wikipedia

List Of Countries That Preferred Male Child to female Child In many cultures, male offspring are desired in order to inherit property, carry on the family name and to provide support for parents in old age. There is a preference of parents to have a son over a daughter in many countries. This can be observed through sex ratios of children in various countries. Although biologically the sex ratio of children is around 95 girls to every 100 boys, this number generally evens out due to the higher infant mortality rate of boy infants.

Meet Tenzing Norgay, The ‘Unsung Hero’ Of The First Successful Summit Of Mount Everest Edmund Hillary was the first person to climb Mount Everest, but he couldn't have done it without Sherpa Tenzing Norgay. Born in the Himalayas, Tenzing Norgay grew up revering the "mighty mountain" of Everest and the "goddess of the summit." Though his father gave him a name that means "wealthy fortunate follower of religion" in hopes that he would become a monk, Norgay dreamt of being a mountaineer. He ran away from home multiple times to hike among the peaks, and eventually joined his first official mountaineering expedition at age 20 in 1935. By the time he was 40 years old, he had spent more time on the face of Mount Everest than any other person alive. ⁠ ⁠ So, when a British expedition was looking for local guides in an attempt to reach the summit, they turned to Norgay. And on May 29, 1953, Norgay and New Zealand mountaineer Edmund Hillary became the first peopl...

14 Ways To Spot A Gold Digger

A gold digger is a person who is primarily interested in their partner’s money and what it can do for them. You’ll notice that gold diggers often push their partners for expensive gifts, loans, and allowances. They usually feel entitled to the best that life has to offer without working for it. If you are looking for a genuine romantic connection, it’s a good idea to watch out for gold diggers and avoid them.  1. Check out their employment status. Many gold diggers do not have jobs or work in lower-level positions until they attract someone who can serve as their “meal ticket.” When you start dating someone, ask about their job and see what they envision for their future career. If they give you vague answers or laugh it off, then it could be a problem. 2. Be concerned if they reject inexpensive gifts. The thought is what should count when exchanging gifts. If you suspect your partner is a gold digger, you could try to give them a thoughtful, but inexpensive, present....

The corpse of Madame Debeinche, who was murdered in her Paris apartment on May 5, 1903, lay completely motionless

You are looking at one of the first crime scene photos ever taken The corpse of Madame Debeinche, who was murdered in her Paris apartment on May 5, 1903, lay completely motionless. Her photo is one of thousands snapped by Alphonse Bertillon, a police clerk in Paris who revolutionized detective work. Not only was Bertillon the first to photograph a crime scene, but he also streamlined the use of mugshots. By 1884, his groundbreaking new criminal codification method helped catch 241 repeat offenders in Paris. At first glance, the faded 1903 photograph of Mme Debeinche’s bedroom, bound in the yellowed pages of an early 20th-century album, shows what looks to be an unremarkable middle-class Parisian apartment of the time. The overstuffed room brims with floral decoration, from the wallpaper and heavy swag curtains to the carpeting, chair upholstery—even the chamber pot. A large reproduction of Alexandre Cabanel’s voluptuous 1863 painting, “Birth of Venus,” hangs on the wall. A sizeable unm...
