    Was Jesus sent to the Jews only, or to Mankind?

    I believe that he was "sent" (if you insist on using that word) specifically to the Jews. But it's still possible for anyone to benefit from his teachings. It's like if I were to throw you a street party for your birthday, but still allow anyone to come, dance, take food, etc. Yeah, the party...

    Catholics; Inclusivism

    OK, you're right. But that quote in your original post is not too far off from what Origen was saying.

    Who should partake of the body and blood of Jesus?

    Anyone who wants to partake in the divine nature, I suppose.

    Catholics; Inclusivism

    ... and a Church Father?

    Is God made of anything at all? Actually, are the elementary particles made of anything at all?

    Abraham sacrifice his son (ishmael or isaac)

    But the Qur'an doesn't get it wrong. In fact, the Qur'an doesn't even mention the name of the son. It's only Arabs who have later come to think that it was Ishmael who was to be sacrificed.

    masturbation anyone?

    As well as any sex at all, if one of the partners is infertile.

    Best. Post. Ever. Ever.

    masturbation anyone?

    You're quite good. Shall we have a competition?

    Catholics; Inclusivism

    Origen is pretty universalist, isn't he?

    Catholics; Inclusivism

    Well, why would God only make one faith acceptable, especially when that one faith is not practiced by six sevenths of the world's population? These six sevenths are then not saved. This would be a colossal failure on Jesus' part, wouldn't it?

    How do you see God?

    Spoken like a true Sufi. :p

    Are you saved?

    1. Who is the true God? Who is the false God? 2. Humans don't die because they're paying the wages of sin. They die because, at some point of another, the chemical process that keep them alive stop functioning properly and they're unable to sustain the body. These are querstions we must...

    God Theory

    How can God have a gender when She isn't even a living being?

    I'm fine, thanks! I just got back from a two-week vacation, so that was fun. I'm now trying to recuperate. And you always did seem like a UU type of person to me, actually.

    Christianity is Judaism-lite?

    OK, you're right, then. His emphasis wasn't the same as that of the mainstream Jews around him. But why would you say that he is "very weak" on ritual commandments?

    Math, who has more faith than evolutionist?

    OK, well, since he isn't reading this... Next time he makes a thread, let's go in and pretend to agree, just to mess with his head. :p

    Dr. Michael Behe author of Darwin's Black Box

    I must train myself and acquire discipline, so that I may one day be like you. :bow:

    Solomon's Seal Ring

    I've wondered this, too. Those acts really do seem like they're associated with some form of magic.

    Judaism + Islam = Agnosticism?

    I can't Frubal you right now, so I'll just compliment you on your post-making skills right here, directly. Though I'd say that Muslims do their own fair share of marketing, it doesn't often seem like a "television commercial".
