“Religious books are written by man. The Bible is the written word of God and as such should not be on the same shelf as the Koran with its focus on death.”

Please accept my apology.

I’m getting a tad testy with all this Bible ridicule and elevating EVIL, Islam.

Then you misread me. My point is that the Bible is the written word of God. Christianity unlike every other “religion” is in fact not a religion at all. It is a faith and trust in the creator of all things and the salvation brought to us by his Son, Jesus Christ.

Religion is man-made. Christianity is God made. Big difference.

Yes I did misunderstand you. I apologize again.

YOU are a breathe of fresh air.

Thank you!

The Bible is the word of God and God’s way of reaching out to man. Religion is (occasionally) man’s sad and pitiful attempt to explain God.

I think many of us bristled at his response. But his subsequent answer should make us all rethink our “over quick” responses. Might have been better if he had given the whole answer in his original post … however, got’s to admit, his overall effect, was, well … effective. ;-)

I guarantee this will be the least of your worries in six months.

I almost feel set up and I LIKE it!

:)

It’s good to see there are some real Christians out there that are articulate too!

“Couldn’t they put the koran in the bathroom?”

Better than a Sears Roebuck catalog?

It is not about their little book itself

It is what is inside

I've read the last chapter of "The Book"

And they Loose!

England will cease to be England unless they simply deport all Muslims.

Which means that England will cease to be England, relatively soon.

Do you know how many things in good Ol Britain should be placed on the shelf? Let’s see - New Labor, Old Labor, Labor Labor Labor, Liberal Labor, that liberal Darling Finance guy who is part of Labor. Why don’t they stop pretending, dissolve Parliament and set up the Sharia tent near St. James’ Park.
