Im sure someone called jesus existed but his identity today and Christianity is a mish mash of various pagan religions and cultures. It's hard to tell who the actual Jesus was. Jesus identity has changed over time, bits have been  added and other bits removed. The historical church fathers crafted and created the identity of Jesus as well.

Back in those days the image of the cross was degrading and used as an insult.  One of the oldest depictions of Jesus is a sketch on a wall of a man on a cross with a donkeys head drawn probably by the pagans. Thugs, thieves, murderers were hung on crosses so for the early Christians depiction of Jesus on a cross would be a huge insult but over time it has become the most common symbol for Christians.

The Catholic religion is basically paganism but the pagan God's were replaced with Jesus, marry and other Christian figures. Magna Mater was a Greek goddess, the mother of all the God's who was introduced to Rome. A idol of Magna Mater was sailed into rome with huge pomp and celebration. With the rise of Christianity Magna Mater was replaced with mary the "mother of god"   same goddess but different names.  Every year just like Magna Mater a idol of marry is sailed around in the river.  She is paraded around rome and worshiped just like Magna Mater was. 

A lot of the attributes of the previous roman pagan deities were given to the Christian figures when Christianity became the state religion of rome.

The Vatican is covered in pagan symbols like the symbol of the sun the pope even carries one. The gold embellishments, kissing feet of the idols, it's all paganism.

African Christianity is more spiritual because thats what their religion and culture was about before they became Christians.

In the UK Christmas culture was hugely influenced by the royal family, bringing trees into your house, turkey etc the Victorian royals made it popular 

He was a dude with a template pasted against the name, he most likely was a spiritual being, but the whole turns water into wine is a concept,  again from my understanding I have studied this thesis of a religion for a long time, you get the moon worshippers, 'Jews and Muslims ' and the sun worshippers 'Christians' and I don't want to get into 'Elohim' singular vs pleural

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
