| Hi George, I had this profound conversation with a friend yesterday. He learns about and writes about all religions. He equated Jesus Christ to Buddha and Krishna. He said Krishna was the Avatar of Brahman the Supreme being. I know your belief system, but I am sure you will agree that we cannot eqalize Jesus with Krishna who had 1000 wives. Would love to see your comments.I believe that Jesus is part of the Trinity , you know that about me, right? Yours In Christ, Molly. --- On Sun, 1/31/10, George <george_smith92530@ yahoo.com> wrote:
