    Discrepancy 1: Genesis 1 vs 2

    The two creation stories in Genesis are different with differing events happening on the same days. They are parables not history and certainly not science. I can recommend some books if you are interested. The writers of the Genesis stories were attempting to explain why there was anything at...

    “Christianized” mysticism

    Meditation has been a part of the Christian experience since the first century. We can no more divorce mystical experience from the faith than we can the Incarnation.

    Genesis is a parable. It is not about HOW the universe was created but WHY.

    won't the rich enter the heaven?

    The problem is not money per se but the uses to which a person puts it and the place it has in their lives. Money and goods can be an impediment towards the good, towards the kind of society envisioned by Jesus in Matthew 25.

    Cry of the Sheeple

    I do believe this can be classified as heiferdust. People voted for obama because Romney / Ryan was unthinkable for most. It has nothing to do with a supposed desire to have bread and circuses.

    Politic-O-Matic!

    It’s no secret that you’re a liberal. You’re strict when it comes to regulating big business, but lenient when it comes to individual freedoms. The right to marry whom you want; the right of a woman to choose what she does with her body; the right to privacy; and the right to free health care...

    The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Blacks and the Priesthood)

    Actually that was Brigham Young's teaching. Joseph Smith Jr. ordained at least one black Priesthood member and the RLDS church has ordained blacks since the 1860s.

    Christians: How could Earth only be 6000 years old?

    As a Christian living today there are a number of voices who claim to be speaking for all of us, they assail science and insist that we must literally accept every word in the Bible as true. In doing so they fail both themselves and others for much in the Bible is parable or metaphor. When we...
