    Is Pat Robertson Really a Christian?

    Invalid; Jesus uses it himself.

    Open Poll: Was Christianity a Jewish sect originally?

    Today's Jews are incapable of following the full Mosaic Law because there is no Temple. Now you know. And knowing is half the battle.

    Open Poll: Was Christianity a Jewish sect originally?

    I think that, originally, Christianity was meant for Jews and converts to Judaism (who, in my opinion, are still real Jews). That does not, however, mean that a non-Jew, such as myself, cannot get a great deal of benefit out of Jesus' teachings. All it means is that I cannot get much benefit...

    Israelites were polytheistic

    I'd rather you had Cherry Cola and Vodka.

    We Came From Stars!

    All elements heavier than Helium came from the stars, so... Our constituent parts came from the stars, that's for sure. Whether our constituent parts are "us" is another question.

    How did EL come into exsiestence ?

    Then how do you, Mr. Biblical Scholar, explain Emm, Enn, Oh, and Pee, huh?

    The Deer Hunter?

    Very interesting stuff. So Shiva/Rudra isn't a necessarily a deer hunter, but he IS associated with deer and he IS a hunter, then. Now the Maruts are associated with Rudra, aren't they? Does this mean that they, too, are associated with the hunt? Well, that's a specific instance of Rudra...

    The Deer Hunter?

    Hi, I have a question regarding Shiva/Rudra. I seem to think that, once, I read something that talked about either Shiva or Rudra being referred to as "the deer hunter". Is Shiva/Rudra really given this name, or am I merely confused? Is there any deity who is given that name? Sorry, it was a...

    World will end on the year 20??

    It DID end when we stopped being cavemen. Now, there's only the simulacrum.

    Signs of The End: A Baha'i View

    So why do you think that these signs passed? What did Christ mean when he said that the sun and moon will be darkened, and that the stars will fall from the heavens? What about the Son of Man coming in the clouds with power and glory? This is interesting to me because I can't take these...

    Signs of The End: A Baha'i View

    Could you tell us about the Baha'i view on which these signs were and in what way they passed?

    Jesus was Yahweh???

    It's a bit too late to say this, but... Yahweh is also described as someone who shouts like a drunk man and strikes His enemies on their behinds. This doesn't mean that the ancient Israelite conception of God involved alcoholism.

    Do the Gods Experience Pleasure?

    Emotions originate as chemical processes in the brain. God doesn't have a brain. Therefore...

    Jesus was Yahweh???

    Still on that "Yahweh is a volcano" train, are we? Fine, I'll humour you. It's got some imagery that reminds one of a volcano. But Yahweh is often described using various images from nature in the Bible. A volcano could be used because it's huge and powerful. That doesn't mean that Yahweh was a...

    How far back is it possible to trace one's family history?

    When people say "King Arthur", they don't mean Uther.

    How far back is it possible to trace one's family history?

    And he also claims to be descended from Brian Blessed. I mean, claiming descent from a king is one thing, but from an actor is just something else! :p

    How far back is it possible to trace one's family history?

    So, when're you posting your evidence, then? Because, you know, I highly doubt anyone can trace their ancestry back 6000 years (assuming Adam and Eve were historical characters). Some people claim descent from Muhammad, but even that isn't as incredible as your claim.

    Catholics; Inclusivism

    I understand your concern, but we must understand that, founding aside, the Church is an altogether human organisation. It may even do its best, but it cannot always be right on everything. This is why the Church itself has changed throughout history, and continues to change even today. As for...
