Kinda par for the course.
BTW, I thought the test was spot on!
imagine that folks who identify themselves as PROTESTants throwing around the word contentious. (noting that indeed the Protestants choose the term themselves).

Just started reading, very interesting and eye opening.
It is very interesting isn't it? Down to the statues in churches with the mother and child.
RATS.
I hate reading such stuff. But that one sounds too fitting and good to pass up.
Thanks.
well at least you live up to the protestant tradition of denying scripture; 282 words at a time.
just imagine if it were statues of cows! why it'd be just like that CALF in the Old Testament right?
Please post the scripture you mentioned yesterday that said God commanded the Israelites to worship the oxen, sorry "venerate" in Solomon's temple. After I have that, I will reply , thanks in advance.
Maybe the scripture you referenced but have trouble locating, has 282 words in it too?
ICor. 6:19
Acts 10:44
ICor. 15:10
Gal. 2:20
Heb. 13:5
These verses might be helpful if you really want to look into this.
There is no question they certainly were affected by it.
I have asked them to show me where I am misrepresenting any group, but doubt I'll get an answer....
Starting flame wars, you say? I could teach you a thing or two. All I have to do is post a news article without commentary, and I'm accused of all sorts of nefarious things. Never mind what happens when another Catholic posts the very same material (a poster who, by comparison, was exceptionally kind to me). It's all about the person, not the material.
My showing up is merely enough to start a flame war.
It really is a very interesting read. I highly recommend it and would be interested in what you think about it.

Tell me about it. Join the club.
Though, we probably both could confess awareness that we are both very intense personalities and tend to use very forceful language.
But then . . . so did Jesus and Paul . . . at least on occasion! LOL.
Nice rationalization, don't you think?
Deut18:22 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.
I don't think that either one of us have a DESIRE to start a flame war or even participate in one.
Sometimes we may be tooo tenaciously fierce about our perspectives when backing off would be more loving wisdom.
Oh, Argh.
OK,
Next time you're on Amazon.com . . . I'll FREEPMAIL you my ID there to send me the wish list name etc.
Mostly because I respect you so highly.
Thanks for noticing! That's just about the nicest thing anyone's said about me this week.
