    Why So Much Trinity Bashing?

    Irrelevant. The REASON God does not lie or repent is because HE IS NOT A MAN. It is not his nature. All of your rebuttals are irrelevant for the identical reason: noting the context and reason WHY God is not a man simply doesn't take away the truth that he is not a man. I'm sure you really...

    Jesus will return in 2030

    Okay, let's talk about my personal views, which sync up far better with Conservative Judaism and Reform Judaism. Although Orthodox tend to see the Messiah as a single person who will rule during the idyllic messianic age, we other religious Jews tend to see the Messiah as a metaphor for the...

    The Four Dirty Secrets Against Darwin Evolution

    Exactly why I stopped talking to him.

    Jesus will return in 2030

    No. But Jews don't keep coming up with false predictions when he will come.

    Why So Much Trinity Bashing?

    They are declarations about the nature of God. Unlike pagan deities, God is not part of nature, nor does he incarnate to become part of nature. He does not become a tree or a rock or an insect or a man. Can he? Sure. Will he? No, because that would go against his nature. It's like asking Can...

    Is the evolutionary doctrine a racist doctrine?

    This has happened so rarely that it astounds me you even think it a point worth mentioning. Before we had genetics, scientists had only anatomical similarities to use as evidence of relatedness. Now we have the science of genetics, which is infinitely superior. In a few extremely rare cases...

    Why So Much Trinity Bashing?

    Rather than flooding the room, which is what you did (the purpose of flooding is to so overwhelm the other that they cannot reply), I will offer just four verses. How can Jesus, who was a man, be God, if God is not a man? Numbers 23:19 God is not a man nor a son of man. 1 Samuel 15:29 He is not...

    Why So Much Trinity Bashing?

    Yeap, I'm sure Jesus is turning over in his grave that people worship him.

    America isn't Christian

    I think you are attributing a lot of things to Jesus that had nothing to do with Jesus. Christianity wouldn't even have become a new religion without Paul. It would never have come to dominate the West without Constantine. What I'm trying to say is that much of the "mark on history" that you...

    Who are the People of God?

    OMG, I'm dying laughing. You have no idea how many times that thought has occurred to me. LOL

    Common Sense vs The Theory of Relativity

    Do you mean the Newtonian laws? Because Einsteins observations are more accurate than Newtons. And we know there are problems with Einstein--we just don't know exactly what. Someday, another great physicist will come along who will propose an understanding more accurate than Einstein's. I am...

    America isn't Christian

    People who have original ideas are few and far between. Most of the time people adopt the ideas of others or, at best, build on the ideas of others. Nothing wrong with that.

    America isn't Christian

    Good question. They point out that the Trinitarian formula "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" did not exist in Jesus' day, meaning that this passage is a clear interpolation by later editors.

    America isn't Christian

    The things Jesus said about himself were unusual. The things he taught about God and how we should live were nothing new. He basically taught second Temple Judaism. Many of his most famous sayings were simply quotes of others, such as the Torah, or Hillel. Jesus never intended some kind of...

    Jesus will return in 2030

    If you want to believe Jesus is coming back, more power to you. I just don't want to hear any more "The signs are here! He is almost here!"

    America isn't Christian

    That's hotly debated. A buttload of historians say that Jesus preached Judaism and had no intention of starting a new religion; that it was Paul who created the new faith.

    On Evolution & Creation

    Long ago, when I was reading everything on the MBTI that I could get my hands on, I ran across a book "Prayer and Temperament: Different Prayer Forms for Different Personality Types" by Chester P. Michael and Marie C. Norrisey. I was surprised to find that there were forms of prayers that were...

    Catholicism and Paganism

    Yeah, I was thinking the same. Whether the Yom Kippur scapegoat in Judaism, or the incorporation of the Kaaba into Islam, it is clear that all the monotheistic faiths have remnants of the pagan faiths out of which they grew.

    Catholicism and Paganism

    Of course you do. And Protestantism came out of Catholicism, bringing those influences with it. Jesus looked like Zeus??? I thought Jesus looked like Robert Powell. FWIW, every culture sees Jesus as one of them. I've seen paintings of Black Jesus on the cross. I know of a Christian Church...
