Saying there are questions believers should not ask is admitting to a weakness in God, a line of questioning, a logical process which He can not endure. Or you can not resist, anyway

No, this is admitting to a weakness in BELIEVERS, not God. A line of questioning, a logical process which WE can not endure. As I asked, how would you feel if your daughter questioned you to this degree about your being her true father?

As I said before, I believe there are some things that God never intended HIS PEOPLE to even WANT to question.

Fair enough, I figured that was what you meant.

You can believe that if you like, but I can't. Certainly cunning sophists can lead away those less grounded in faith, and those types of people should be sheltered. But I'm a big boy and my faith can stand up to examination and conjecture. Granted, there are some questions that I just have to answer on pure faith, but many can be reasoned from principle elements of faith.

Think about this. This nice and forgiving God went and created Adam & Eve; he said don't eat from this tree, and they did! He got upset. For thousands of years, he is upset. It has been so many generations since Adam & Eve, and he still can not let go of these guys eating an apple! He is a forgiving God? but he still can not forget that apple insident. So he thinks, I will come down to earth and allow myself to be killed, and that will make me forget that apple insident!!!!!!!

So Christ was born with original sin?

Hi Becky. Where, precisely, do you find the scriptural support for this belief of yours?
