Probably A Likely Typical Reaction From A Strongly  Religious Person Who Has Received the Books

Here is a person in Australia who asked for the books, and commented that he liked the section on "moral drift" best.  I take this cycle as a bit of a loss.  On the basis of this one example I can guess that he liked the web site because it described a ruin, but for lack of application of the remainder of the dissemination formula he never realized that HIS solution for the ruin I pushed him into ("moral drift") was not useful.  So, he responds, in politeness to my sending the books, with HIS solution -- the bible and Jesus.

This makes me question, if only in a tiny way, as yet, the validity of my web-based approach to distributing TWTH.

Dear Karl

I received The Way to Happiness books, thanks so much. Basically, I can find most of them (if not all) in the Bible. Bible is not a guidance book to get us to Heaven, but God's book in every area of life.

Christian is not a religion, Christian means
believers.
The difference with Moslem, Hindu, Buddha etc, they
teach how to get to Heaven. But the fact is the
penalty of sin is dead (this is the rule since the
beginning). We all know that all of us have sin. Noone
can say I have no sin. All of us have to die (this is
the penalty). But Jesus has died to replace us, so
that we may live. This is the grace. The bottom line
is we cannot save ourself (go to Heaven by doing a
good thing). We have to believe that Jesus has died
for us. That's it.

I realise these thing when I was in Indonesia a few
years ago.


Cheers
Hartono
