Knott’s lost its charm and relative serenity when it got the idea to compete with the mouse.
Maybe the chicken dinner patrons were beginning to die off at that point.
People see Him like them.
I see him like Charles Bronson, and when he comes back he’s going to be ticked off.
And yeah, I am fairly sure He ain't happy. We were given everything. How is it that we managed to mess things up so badly?
Mary and Joseph were not homeless. They were required to leave their home in Nazareth to register in Bethlehem. They would undoubtedly have returned there had they not been warned. As it was after their sojourn in Egypt they returned to Nazareth.
They were not homeless. Joseph and his sons were carpenters. Jesus learned carpentry. Joseph worked, he had a job.
They were travelling back to their family home because of Caesars’ census taking place and thats where they were supposed to go to be counted. Thats why accomodations in that area were booked up, because lots of other people were back in that area for the census count. They were not poor and homeless.
“ There is no shame in being homeless like Mary and Joseph were.”
Mary and Joseph weren’t homeless. They had travelled from their home to Bethlehem.
I travel back to Naples occasionally and don’t consider myself homeless while I’m there.
Sorry. I had flashbacks of Hillary comparing homeless people to Mary & Joseph.
Carry on.
Thanks
It was the Yasser Arafat lie
And Jesus says to him, “The foxes have holes and the birds of the heaven have nests, but the Son of Man does not have a place where He may lay His head”.

Juan 1:1———— RVR1960
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. This was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him nothing was made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not prevail against it.
This has been going around the idiot liberal circles since the “palestinians” decided to murder 1200 Jews, who lived in their native Judea. Brain dead idiots believe this crap and have ZERO knowledge of history or theology. I would explain it again but we freepers already know.
(Technically, Jesus was born in Palestine.)
Actually no, He wasn’t.
That name did not come about until right after the
Bar Kokhba Rebellion (Revolt) of 132
You could say He was born in what is called now or since 132
“They can’t find a place for her to even give birth, his mother. They’re homeless. They eventually have to flee as refugees into Egypt, no less. I mean, you can’t make up the parallels to our current world situation right now”
They are not “parallels”.
The only ones “occupying” Gaza are some Palestinian Arabs who are ruled over by the terrorist organization Hamas. If some of them “flee” to Egypt right now, it is no parallel with Joseph and Mary fleeing to Egypt.
When 100% of the context is so different you cannot claim parallels in it.
“Peleset” was mentioned by the ancient Egyptians, “Palashtu” or “Pilistu” by the ancient Assyrians. “Palestine” is a later form of the same name.
In a weird but perfectly logical way...
He's the total round-up of the souls of Adam, as a main concept is to reflect his character on an individual basis, which then takes root and spreads around the whole world for the better.
Leading by the stellar example.
So, not that he's every man of 1000 different races, but then again, why yes, that's the idea.
Maybe how kids want to be astronauts, to reach for the stars.
Always made me wonder how the people of His time saw Him. Did everyone see the same thing or did each see something different? He was so unremarkable in appearance that picking Him out of a crowd was essentially impossible.
Παλαιστίνῃ (Palaistine`) appears in Herodotus, 5th century B.C.
I’m guessing it’s a dialect of Greek, and other authors would have used a phi rather than a pi to get Philistia or something like it.
The refugees to Egypt comment is inane. THe Romans controlled that too.
