Do you think a person's faith should be judged by the actions of individuals or by the core teachings of the faith itself🤍?

Yes that’s an interesting question.

I want to judge faith by the people of the faith because it should be proven and proven real/powerful enough to cause others to live right and do right who believe/ follow that faith. But people do make mistakes and despite the faith/religion, the people who believe in such, will never be the Deities-Gods of those faiths/religions.

Judge the Faith by its teachings and Gods (no offense to anyone who believes we should not judge a higher being).

Judge the people by their actions.

Even more so like: Judge the faith/religion by the resulted actions and words of the Gods

(of that faith )

and

Judge the people by the resulted words and actions of those people.

[Rosexøxø]

You can’t judge a religion by the ones who only read or heard of it. You can only judge it by the author of that religion- the creator of it.

ARE those Gods worth following and their words believing in.

We can only judge people by standards of being human. Having standards to do right but capable or evil and sometimes bound by (occasional) error/ imperfections.

[Rosexøxø]

It’s a bit controversial because we are humans and so in one point we shouldn’t judge others or any god, but I say it’s not from a point of superiority or judging in the ways of justice, but is making our own opinions/judgements/and CONCLUSIONS

As to whether we will trust those things and how we will choose to treat or behave/interact with those things:

Men/People

Gods

The creatures of earth/ animals

[Rosexøxø]

That’s just my perspective about it

[Rosexøxø]

I don't know if it’s confusing or makes sense, but in short:

Judge religions by words and actions of the God (s).

Judge trust in people by the words and actions of the people.

It’s not judgement of authority. It’s judgement of opinion. Conclusion on whether we believe them or not. 🤔 this is the best way I can simplify it lol

[unknowngurll1212]

@Rosexøxø That actually makes a lot of sense. I like how you separated judging the faith itself vs. judging the people who follow it—really thoughtful perspective...🤍

[Rosexøxø]

Thank you! It was mostly your idea. Your question seemed rhetorical. But mostly interesting, creative, and well done.

I suppose most people judge others’ religions based on their behavior and it seems it could be doing themselves a disservice. It would be more fair if they looked directly at the texts and made a conclusion for themselves without external and dissimilar interference.

By their actions. If their actions or their speech don't show who they are, then they are just like a babbling brook full of trash.

[unknowngurll1212]

Exactly—actions always speak louder than beliefs. Empty words mean nothing without real character 🤍...

[NoDecision]

@unknowngurll1212 Exactly!

[ohsheeT]

Neither one the persons Faith is a thought and or a belief of what they believe is the truth and any one that judges you in a negative way knows nothing about faith or Religion. Or honor. Or any respect for themselves or for faith

[unknowngurll1212]

True—faith is personal, and real understanding comes with respect, not judgment. Nicely said 🤍..

[ohsheeT]

Thank you yes I agree

[wkhan_87]

No one follows fully faith..
So it should be judge by the faith itself.

[Rosexøxø]

Very valid point.

[wkhan_87]

Thanks

[unknowngurll1212]

Exactly—people may fall short, but the core of the faith is what really defines it 🤍...

[wkhan_87]

Thank you for the MHO

[Nikki1989]

The core teachings of the faith itself. Most people that push religion are total hypocrites, especially in America.

[unknowngurll1212]

Totally get that—core teachings matter way more than loud hypocrisy. Actions should reflect belief, not contradict it 🤍/...

[ChicoFromThe305]

Both, the individuals should know the teachings and listen to them, mostly if they want to spread the teachings or expect the obedience from someone else

[unknowngurll1212]

Well said—if someone wants to spread a belief, they should live it too. Can’t preach what you don’t practice 🤍...

[ChicoFromThe305]

Yes indeed so 😌

[Nik1hil]

A Person's Faith should be Judged by The core Teachings and their Co-Relation with the action of the person!

[unknowngurll1212]

Agreed—belief means little without alignment between values and actions. Both go hand in hand 🤍...

[jahaims]

A person is judged for being too weak to handle reality. What imaginary thing they use to cope doesn't matter.

[unknowngurll1212]

Interesting take. Faith or not, everyone’s just trying to cope with life in their own way 🤍...

[NathanDavis]

I just try my best not to judge people... certainly not as a whole group of people, lol

[Agape93]

Both. How the person behaves and why matters.
