What do you think: is Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Bahai or Sikhism the best world religion?

What's the best religion in the world?

Do you agree? Share your thoughts on this lens about what the best world religion is. I'm sticking to the world religions, for the sake of brevity, but have included an up and coming contender: the Bahai. Aside from them, these are the world religions (by alphabetical order): Buddhism, Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism. So what do you think?What's the best religion in the world?I'll be helping you make your case by sharing the basics on each of the world religions. The main criteria I'll follow are: peaceful actions by their followers and the quality of the teachings. But I'll let you weigh in on the matter every step of the way.Under construction.

Go Green, Nature and Ecological lenses

http://www.squidoo.com/nature-green

One of my passions is nature: it's essential to my mental health to have something green to look out at when I'm working. As I feel humanity is very busy stretching the limits of what can be safely done to our planet, I've made a few pages online that deal with this problem. On the other hand, the spiritual side to living with nature is also very interesting to me.On this page you will find all that, as well as several pages dealing with vegetarianism: why I'm vegetarian, vegetarian quotes and vegetarian cooking.

Photographs, go green tips and info on eco green living.

Don't you just love Fantasy art? I do, I also love fantasy literature btw. But today's post is about the art. Check out this wonderful twilight poster for instance: dark, romantic and mysterious.

Twilight poster and wall calendar 2010 | Calendars

Twilight 2009 – 2010 Poster CalendarMost calendars track the calendar year: January through December, but the Twilight calendars start a few months early: in September 2009. You can start using them right at the start of the academic year.

Fairies and unicorns are a bit more on the light side of fantasy of course. Both sound a bit more innocent and sweet. Posters and calendars portraying these mystical creatures are usually in pastel colors and luminous in atmosphere. Not all though. Some of the fairy calendars feature creatures that are perhaps better called pixies. And these fairy posters aren't all cute either, though they ARE all beautiful.

Unicorns are the ultimate symbol of innocence and beauty. Very different from the vampires I started out with. It shows in the colors of these unicorn calendars: more pastels and less dark. Though I have to admit that Susan Seddon Boulet Fantasy Art Calendars and Planners aren't all pastel either: she uses a very wide and full palet.

Anyhow, I hope you enjoy :)

It's weird that math, which is usually so predictable and stark in atmosphere, can produce such wondrous art forms as this.

Fractal Graphics Art Posters

http://www.squidoo.com/fractal-graphics

Fractals make beautiful art - I've found posters and art prints in which the many layered beauty of fractals comes out wonderfully well. The different colors are usually determined mathematically based on properties like density.The image on the left is of the Mandelbrot fractal. It's the first known and therefore most famous fractal. The artists featured here include Albert Klein and Vicky Brago-Mitchell.

Inspiring and beautiful posters based on religions from all over the world.

Salvador Dali - religiously themed surrealistic art

http://www.squidoo.com/salvador-dali-art

When he reconverted to the Roman Catholic faith he took the skills he'd developed as a Surrealistic painter and created religious art with it. Some of it is surprisingly modern in theme: meditating on a rose for instance. But he also paints the classic Catholic themes like the last supper and the crucifixion. Whatever he paints though, it is always unique and stunning.On this page you will find posters based on those paintings. All of them are available framed as well.

What's the last movie you saw in the theater?

I saw Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, which I liked a lot. However, I did not think the performance of Daniel Radcliffe was very good. I'm perhaps being too critical because as one reader of my lens told me: if you liked the movie, how can the main character not have been played well? Harry Potter was certainly a thrilling movie and did do the book as much justice as can be expected, on the whole.

Rented?

I recently saw 'Made of Honour', a romantic comedy about old friends who should have gotten married ages ago. Except Tom, the main character, sleeps around a lot. then the girl, Hannah, meets a duke in Scotland and gets engaged. She asks Tom to be her Maid of Honor. All kinds of funny complications come out of that of course, but all ends well because really Hannah has loved Tom for a long time and had merely gotten tired of waiting for him.
