Fer shurrr.
I merely quoted Jesus as saying it would be real hard for a rich man to enter heaven.
I see. And we Christians just should "take that on faith," without asking why a rich man shouldn't be able to get into heaven (like the apostles did)?
Like many modern cherry-picking Christians, you aren't comfortable with that, and all your silly name-calling and Clintonian context parsing doesn't change the obvious, simple meaning of Christ's words.
OOOOOO! That hurt!! (:-(
I'm interested because compared to most people in the world, nearly every single American would be considered "rich". I'll go out on a limb here and assume you you'd be included in that group. (You do have a computer and Internet access after all.)
Or rather define Christs idea of "rich". What? Cant do it? So how do you know when you've reached that magic point where you've become "rich" and can no longer get into heaven, EVEN through the blood of Christ. You're insisting that there is such a point aren't you?
Your arguments indicate to indicate that you have little to no understanding of Christian theology. Or perhaps you do, but are just being intentionally confrontational.
Are you suggesting that a Christian must have NO material possessions? No house, cloths, or shoes? No food? Don't you have to posses food before you can eat it? Unless you're naked, sleeping outside and starving to death there will always be someone with less than you and you'll then be "rich" compared to them.
Or do you think Jesus might have been making some other point?
