(You said that you Flinch when your brother mentions Jesus....Why do you do that...I think it's very telling...and I think you know why you do it....yu will come to grips with it someday....God Willing)

Not to get into a theological argument, which will probably happen, now, but the Bible says our G-d is one. I would flinch in same way if he praised Zeus.

If there was a Jesus, he was here to lead the gentiles to Judaism, and vice versa.

FWIW, the New Agers take the opposite tact. They say that God is one, in that he is in everything, as in "I am God." So if you were to praise Zeus, or yourself, or the sun, you're really praising God, since he's in everything. Pantheism, I think it's called.

Genesis...Then God sad, 'Let us make human beings in our image, after our likeness, to have dominion over the fish in the sea, the birds of he air, the cattle, all he wld animals on land, and everything that reeps on the earth.'

So WHO do you think US, and "OUR" meant...as in OUR Likeness? It's Jesus he was talking about.
