Snippy today, aren't we?

No one's talking about doubts, we all have them. This "priest" stated clearly in the article that there was nothing special about Jesus until his ministry. That sure flies in the face of Old Testament prophecy and New Testament history. If he has that great a disagreement in his faith, he should seek other "employment."

By his own words, this is just a job for him. That attitude is sure to alienate many of the souls he was "employed" to shepherd. Better to not have a shepherd for the flock than to have a shepherd driving his sheep over a cliff.

Not more than usual.

And, I have addressed the kind of comments you made already.

Don't be so sure that his "sheep" are alienated by his stance. That denomination isn't what it used to be.

Jesus himself indicates this when he tells his mother its not yet his time in regards to changing the wedding wine into water. Further, John and Mark start there gospels with John the baptist. This minsiter is on fairly firm ground with this comment seeing that 1/2 the Gospel writers agree as well As Jesus himself.
