Who put the bible down in writing? The RC Church.

Who was the first pope? Peter, Christ’s disciple.

I don’t have to be “born again”. I was born once and that’s all I need to go to heaven.

I believe that all the Jews, Hindus, Sikhs, animists, Wiccans, etc, and even atheists that live good lives will go to heaven. They will find that their view was incorrect, but they will be there

Wow, tpanther and CottShop, just reading what Wacka-mole doesn't know about what it means to be a Christian or the history of Christianity and the bible in general makes one wonder all the more about how little he likely knows about anything he ever chooses to comment upon at all -- particularly as it pertains to topics that have anything to do with the study of science.

If he is the Christian he claims to be maybe he can back up his allegedly "Christian" beliefs with a Scripture reference or two.

He clearly knows nothing about the Christianity he claims he believes and still less about anything resembling the study of science!

He whines about the presumed difference between "magazines" vs. "journals," implying that somehow one is by definition superior to the other. Buy a clue Wacka-doodle: a magazine is a magazine and a journal is.... a magazine!

Of course, while it is becoming increasingly obvious to readers that he has failed to ever read a science-based magazine more sophisticated than, say, the "Highlights" he thumbs through while waiting for his pediatrician to summon him in for his routine cheer-leading physical, or to comprehend the contents of what is contained in a presumed rarefied "peer reviewed journal," one would not expect him to know....

But speaking of his unction for presumption maybe if he'd like to comment on the presumed wonders of what passes for accuracy and credibility in today's "peer reviewed" literature, he'd like to start here with this "peer-reviewed journal" entry:

"Why Most Published Research Findings Are False" PLoS Med 2(8): e124. doi:10.1371/journal.pmed.0020124, August 5, 2005.

If that version is too difficult for him to digest, or he finds it "too scary," the puréed peas and baby carrots version may be found here:

"Why Most Published Research Findings Are False" New Scientist 30 August 2005, Kurt Kleiner

Whack-a-way!

Excellent find, Agamemnon! It certainly put the opinions of fallible men in perspective, no matte what the discipline!

Still waiting for some scientific proof (a book by an engineer on creation biology is not proof).

I am being civil and stated my views and get my religion and my scientific background (A PhD in Molecular Biology, by the way) ridiculed.

Mighty Christian of ‘ya.

I’d liek to see where the bible talks about infant baptism, or that being a member of a church is all you need for salvation- Seems ot me that Christ spoke out against such a notion and said it was not man that earned his way to heaven by being a member of a church- infact He said salvation was through Him and Him alone, so that no man coudl boast- IF a man can earn their way to heaven by being a ‘good member’ then that certainly DOES give a person reason to boast- and one has to admit that if a man only gets to heaven by being a ‘good member, then apparently, not goign to church would mean loss of salvation- showing once again that it’s a man who maintains their salvation- and not Christ as the bible speaks about- again givign the man somethign to boast about
