Gosh...where could they have gotten that from...could it be...Jesus?!?! Yet Jesus said he was going to build his church on Peter. And Jesus never abolished the food laws. Just a personal observation. Jews ARE still bound by the law, but goyum Christians are not. Not because Paul said so, but...

Thanks, Pop.

Thank you Leo. I appreciate it.

I still don't see how Luke's genaeology is for Mary. Luke 3 Perhaps you can shed some light as to how it became son in law? I am not trying to be intentionally obtuse. I don't see anything here indicating it.

Three questions: I asked this before, but I didn't get a good answer: 1. Why is Mary's virginity so important? I mean, what is the big deal if she had other children? And I am serious about this. (And I'd really like to hear from 4top on this one too) 2. For the Protestants: (and I'm not...

Oh, I know. I wasn't trying to be hostile. Sometimes, I think I come off as such, when that is not my intent. I was just curious about your outlook.

Well, I'm not Timor, and I cannot answer for him...but for me... Actually, Leo basically hit my position on it. The universe has always existed. Why the heck not? Basically, back when I was a Deist, I thought in terms of a "Blind Watchmaker." A Great Archetect (Jefferson). The god of Spinoza...

Pop, I do think that you can answer this. Do you think Bush is a good example of a Christian? (I don't mean this as an insult, nor do I expect you to know if he actually is saved. I mean just what I am asking.)

Why are you happy with Bush? Anyway, he puts corporate interests over national interests. Look at the rebuilding of Iraq...Oh, gee...Cheny's firm got the bid. As for the Supreme Court, by refusing to hear Gore's case, and in light of the fact that the elections in Florida and Texas were very...

Protestanant has actually 2 meanings. First is basically any Christian religion that is not Catholic. Second and more restrictive would only include those denominations that broke from Rome. (Which I've always found to be interesting, since that should technically include the Eastern Rite.)...

1. There is a Republican in the White House because the Supreme Court put him there. (and, no, I don't think Gore was great...but I do think he wouldn't have been as bad as Bush. Reality is, they both sucked. Also, the Democrats are not "liberal" anymore, they are just slightly less conservative...

So, basically, they mummify? Mummification occurs more often than many people would think. Also, would you care to comment on "saints" such as Padre Pio and "Mother" Theresa? (I can buy into someone like Augustine (right?) who was a libertine until he turned to God, but those two...

Speaking for myself, I don't expect to "deconvert" any of you here.  Frankly, I don't think it is any more possible to convince anyone to not believe than to convince people to believe. I would like to challenge some of the ideas you hold.  My opinion is that some people here are open minded...

I am definitely not going to defend purgatory. However, I herard an explaination about it that ran along these lines...Heaven is perfect, and no sin can enter. So what happens when you die, assuming that you haven't been forgiven everything? That's where purgatory comes in. It allows for a...

No...that wasn't my point. What I was saying is that answersingenesis stated that there was an ice age. The Bible doesn't mention it at all. I mean, it mentions many other things, I would think that if an ice age occurred, *something* would be mentioned. See, this is one of my problems with...

And I was reading about the Ice Age. Back in the old days at X Christian School, the ice age was laughed off as secular bull poo. It never happened, and it was all a lie created by evolutionists. So, in reading their piece on it, I was wondering...where is the Ice Age mentioned in the Bible...

Interesting, Kidan...thanks

No prob Happens to me too.

So...eccumenical?

LOL
