They were called prophets in the OT.
There is no such thing in Judaism as prophets, only Mozes came close to being something like a prophet. [/b][/quote]
Stroggy, OMG beat me to it. There are many, many OT prophets--the old guys who lived as hermits, then felt the need to return to civilizations that had grown (in their opinions) too effete and corrupt, and start uttering mixtures of advice and curses.

yeeha, so by saying to others that if you dont follow christ you going to hell you are DENYING yourself entrance to heaven christians. you always manage to advoid the core of what your bloody religion is meant to be about.

OMG, I never said that. Have you been reading my posts? I've been a witch for forty-three years, and was physically initiated twenty-eight years ago. I'm a Gardnerian, and have repeatedly led my own covens since then, though currently I'm just a solitary--frankly, leading those folks can be exhausting. Please don't preach to me about what I think or believe if you don't actually read what I write.

As for Buddha, Krishna and Jesus, I already posted that Buddhism denies the superiority of gods or their ultimate worth, so Jesus could hardly be the same thing--in fact, quite the opposite. And Krishna was/is a god, if you follow a certain belief pattern, while Jesus clearly never stated anything expressing a belief in any self-godhood. If I were to tell you that because you and I agree on a few issues this means we're identical, would you agree to that?
