Churches urged to back evolution

[Thatcherite]

The infallibility of God's word is a topic of discussion wasted on those who view the Bible as simply a book. Much less, those who view it with contempt.

What about those who skate over the repeated gloating mass murders reported in it?

[Thatcherite]

The score is 3 'youths' to 5 'children' (or 'little boys').

And most of the youth's appear to be prefixed with "little". I wonder if the pure "youth" translation is derivative of embarrassment?

What about those who skate over the repeated gloating mass murders reported in it?

Or the genocide supposedly ordered by God?

[dread78645]

that'll be c. 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 of them. And apparently 1/3 of them already fell, swished by Lucifer's tail.

New York Times:

God cuts Mid-level Jobs -
300 Quintillion Angels on unemployment!

[Thatcherite]

Or the genocide supposedly ordered by God?

Yeah! But He managed to hide all the physical evidence of the terracide. All apart from one Book, that slipped through the net.

[dread78645]

It's called apostasy.

Actually, it's called heresy.
Which used to be a perfectly good word meaning 'choice', that is, until the Roman branch of Christ, Inc. required that you have to think like they do.
At which time 'heresy' became a bad thing.

[js1138]

Apostacy and heresy are good things when someone crosses the line to your side.

The game of theological correctness is the most repulsive thing about religion.

[hail to the chief]

You called the judement of the dead "great theatre," which implies that the thought of people burning in hell is enjoyable to you.

[dread78645]

For me God's word is final and to disbelieve it is Idolatry.

Idolatry?

[dread78645]

I wonder if the pure "youth" translation is derivative of embarrassment?

Quite likely. I'll have to see if I still have my Strong's Concordance somewhere in the closet ...

[Elsie]

Nope....

[Elsie]

Nope....

I use a 5 yo (or more) CD that I got from a supermarket kiosk.

[dread78645]

The game of theological correctness is the most repulsive thing about religion.

You can't have leaders unless you have followers.

[Elsie]

...does God show His mercy by offering Himself a blood sacrifice, or by condescending to assume our nature and destroying the power of death by Himself passing through death?

I really don't care, as it really makes no difference how I think it worked!

[Elsie]

Every generation on Earth has thought it was living in the "End Times."

At your fading glimpse of an Escalade undercarriage mashing your chest; the 'end time' has arrived for you!

Be ready to go at any time.w

[js1138]

OK. Wannabe leaders are the most repulsive face of religion. Specifically those who like to talk about eternal punishment for apostates. With folks like this lurking, we don't need militant Muslims.

[Elsie]

Despite your constant treatment of it as such Christianity isn't the only religion that exists...

True, but JESUS is the only SAVIOR that exists!

[Search4Truth]

Well get it, it's free to download. And very handy. :)

[Elsie]

I see Scripture the way it is written: locusts have four legs and bats are birds; pi equals three

Then you can 'show' where THIS is 'written'.

[Elsie]

Don't forget all the stars falling to earth on judgement day (that'll be c. 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 of them. And apparently 1/3 of them already fell, swished by Lucifer's tail.

Are you one of those who can't tell allegory from reality?

SOMEONE in this thread has harped on that. (No, that's NOT singing with a large stringed instrument.)
