I'm okay with that.

Well, I don't know what you've been reading (Velikovsky?) but those were NOT the words (early in your post) of THE Lord Jesus Christ that I know, and Whose voice I recognize.

And you've played your low-information seeker card once too often. We all know you keep it up your sleeve now.

Your opinion, but you'll have to explain that one to me. I have simply offered what I've read and my thoughts.

Your speculations make me think that don't agree with the material I've quoted, which would suggest that one of us, me specifically, is wrong, in your opinion.

Therefore, is it fair to assume that I indeed am a "low-information seeker" by your reckoning?

If you called me an "opinionated lo-info Christian seeker" then we have no argument.

But, if you and I had to play The American Bible Challenge against each other, I guarantee you'd win and not because I let you beat me.

Cheers!

Oh yeah...risking a TMI violation, it was almost 80 today and I'm wearing a short sleeved shirt, so all I have up my sleeves is pit hair. No card.

The closest I've gotten to Velikovsky was, IIRC, in the book Pole Shift: Predictions and Prophecies of the Ultimate Disaster by John White.

I think I was still in Jr. High(?) when I picked it up, but was way too deep for me. I was looking for something to help explain Cayce's end of times prophecies.

Unlike those who spent their youth in Church and Sunday school, Edgar Cayce's stuff was as close as I got to being interested in organized religion. His story and his readings were very spiritually intriguing to me then, and still are.

Depending on who you talk to, I think I could be fairly high info regarding a few things in the spiritual, supernatural realm, but not so much with Judeo-Christian facts and history.

Most of my life, I've thought "that stuff" was just a boring collection of stories I couldn't make much sense of. Only recently, through reading near death experiences of those who came back with a story to tell, has that belief changed. The material I've posted is what I've recently found since reading the NDE stories.

Sorry to bore you with all of that, but I thought I should answer you more thoughtfully than flippantly.
