Actually I don't view the data as dated or as a criticism of anyone. The case has been set forth that Catholics and Orthodox follow some sort of biblical standard and Protestants don't simply because there are Protestants who approve of abortion or gay marriages. That's nonsense in my mind. Protestants have no more control over "weird" Protestants then Catholics have over "weird" Catholics.

Actually the standard has been set forth that no protestants manage to actually follow Holy scripture.

Whether it be as simple and strait forward as allowing women preachers, and urging women to cover their heads while praying, or major deviations from scripture such as blessing homosexual marriages, or homosexual clergy; Protestants claims of sola-scriptura are a canard, and don't stack up simply because no protestants actually practice what Holy Scripture teaches.

Further it is a result of protestant dislike for what Holy Scripture mandates and the fact that anti-Christian forces urge them to splinter the faith, and revel in their perverting of it, that protestant churches spliting into more and more groups which are more and more at odds with Scipture.

Um, who you callin' weird, buster?

No, wait, Dawg, get a hold of yourself. (Sorry, giddy, got home late from a great Bible Study.)

I shoulda said if ONE views the data, not you as in you as in HarleyD.

You know what? Right now, I don't care to think about this stuff anymore. (that won't last. I'll be ready tomorrow, or maybe even in half an hour.)

God is full of Love. Shaken down, pressed together, running over.

Yee HAH!
