Don't Muslim and Christian holy scriptures, for example, basically contain the same kinds of exhortations?

Who is Krsna? Is that the Hindu way of saying "Christ' or "the Anointed One"?

krsna was an alleged avatar of a hindu god, just like jesus was an alleged avatar of a hebrew god.

A different version or interpretation of Jesus, in other words?

Oh, I think I get it now. They are copying the real Jesus story with fictional
stories with similar characters. But Dasa thinks it is the other way around.

I could be wrong but I believe if there was any copying it must have been the Christians wot done it, unless the Hindus went back in time and Plagiarized( wot have you Americans got against the letter 'S'😉 the story of Jesus.

Krishna is just another name for the devil.

To bad Dasa can't even spell it correctly. What a joke.

Yes, you are wrong and we Americans use the letter "S" many times a day in
our writings and I have never heard of any American complaining or threatening
to refuse to use it in his writings. Maybe, you mean certain words that just
happen to have the letter "S" in it.

You must be crazy, if you think I am going to believe that nonsense. I am
asking Dasa anyway.

The difference is that the authors of the books of the Bible were inspired by God to write what God wanted said.
