[Dr. Eckleburg]

The difference between the baby Jesus and the adult Jesus is profound. But it doesn't surprise me that the papacy teaches an infantile salvation. It does everything it can to infantilize (thank you NL) Jesus Christ while elevating His mother to preeminence.

Here is what the man, Jesus Christ, said about the shedding of His blood. I doubt the eight-day-old infant Jesus would make the same claim...

"Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.

No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father." -- John 10:17-18

See the difference? Was the eight-day-old infant Jesus capable of resisting His circumcision?

Of course not.

"For there is one God and one mediator between men and God, the man, Jesus Christ." -- 1 Timothy 2:5

Get it? Christianity was founded by an adult male. Trix are for kids.

When Jesus Christ said, in the GOSPEL, "Before Abraham was, I am" did you think He meant something else other than that He existed before Abraham? When was Christ 8 days old? Jesus Christ is God become Human. I have no doubt that if He wished, He could have declined to respect Jewish law and refused a circumcision, no matter how old YOU say He was. Sometimes I wonder if presbyterians think Christ Jesus wasn't God until He began His ministry by being baptized by John. I have a news flash: Before Abraham was, Jesus IS.
