metmom: "Except here....." lists eight proof-texts.
FRiend, none of the proof-texts you quote actually say, "Jesus is God Himself".
All of them can be, and have been, interpreted to mean something other than what you claim.
For example, I've already addressed at some length your second quote, John 10:30: The Father and I are one," in posts #1,940, #2,304 and others.
Some of these discussions can become quite lengthy, and your list in post #2,306 is only a partial list.
So, if you truly wished to go through these on a one-by-one basis, we can, but I doubt if you would find the exercise enlightening.
Your mind is doubtless made up, and so you just will never "see" what some others have.
And indeed, unlike for example, Kevmo, my purpose here is not to proselytize you, only to defend our Founders against spurious charges of being, in Kevmo's words, "God Damned Heretics".
This does not require that you, metmom, agree with me, only that you recognize the point of view I defend (that of many Founders) as legitimate enough to belong in the Free Republic family of conservatives.
Do you?

***Already covered by Betty Boop with you upthread. But a heretic troll like you likes to just blithely go on.
