I refer to my dad as my father. Guess I'm hell-bound. Wheee!

Leviticus says we are NOT to touch the skin of a dead pig. I wonder if I can play football if I wear gloves.

Didn't Saint Stephen, who according to the bible was filled with the holy spirit, address a group of people as brothers and fathers. If he was filled with the holy spirit, how could he disobey Christ? He didn't. When Jesus said call no man father, he meant in the sense that we should look to no one but God regarding certain things. Christ also said call no man teacher.

Yeah, I'd like to ask this guy if he refers to the man who impregnated his mother as his "father" or not.

What an ignoramus!
