Disagree on what?

Curious
As a human, but with actual choices ... I think we are more forced to be the animals as it stands now. Trained to do as our masters command and often w/out even awareness as we are led to their bidding call. Once in, w/ little option to step out of line because the punishment won't fit the crime, but we will think it does no matter how we try reason w/ our self that it does not (that is guilt). I have often wondered, over the last months, why do so many assume this to be living? It is like being set in a blindingly bright room, and watching as you are raped mentally, whilst our words are taken away so that while being aware of what is being said and how backwards everything, it is SO backward that really there is no one to scream to. <--- even to attempt often will yield predictable results. Let us see.

i'm not a student of that book anymore.
so we'll just go with what you say. and we'll cross our fingers that the patriarchy (who has used that book in order to oppress women) will see it your way too.
the question is mostly, though, why human animals have been favored by the gods and non-human animals are a means of satisfying humyn needs. seems ridiculous, until you have an antiquated, anthropocentric text that pretends it's not.

Why? What happened?
i read it too much. and it gave itself away.
but that doesn't have much to do with anything we're talking about.

That's odd. I experienced the exact same thing.

Contrary to popular belief, man does not have an immortal soul (Eze 18:20) Man is a soul! (Gen 2:7 KJV). If we already had an immortal soul --one that can live independent from the human body ---what need would there be for a resurrection? At the appointed resurrection, (Isa 26:19; Acts 17:31 )this spirit will be reunited with the human body and if they were one of God's elect, God's Holy Spirit will also be reunited.
Man does have an immortaal soul---one that can live independent from the body. The soul automatically separates from the body when we die; this is the resurrection; "In a moment in a twinkling of an eye."

Why bother with scripture?
Just a moment's thought will show that the idea of a soul is just a scam designed to fill pews and collection plates.

You are asking something that God has chosen not to reveal in this present age. As our Omniscent, Omnipotent, Omnipresent Creator and Father, He most certainly has that perogative (Deuteronomy 29:29)
What earthly father reveals every detail of everything he does to his young children?
ok, nevermind. ugh.

Awwh..cheer up. At least we got acquainted with one another
i suppose you're right. and i suppose we will run into this stumbling block again from time to time. all's well, though. it's fine to disagree.
