It looks like you've already explored the anti-Bible points of view before, which I think is a wise thing to do. Yes Andy, you hit the nail on the head. We need to go to the source always first to find out the truth...no matter what we're talking about, whether scripture, work related things, gossip,

Second, no, he left London, as he hated it. He wrote it in Ireland, and then came back. And yes, it could be either Easter or Christmas. But Christmas tradition won. Well I had to check to see if it was London or Ireland and this is what I found: This enduring masterpiece was written in 17

If you're interested, there's a book called 'The Encyclopedia of Biblical Errancy' by C. Dennis McKinsey, which lists a multitude. I found McKinsey's style too biased, though - he's what I call a 'fundamentalist atheist' .....never heard of

but both genealogies are rooted in "Jospeh". They don't actually mention Mary. Incidentally, Matthew 1.16 says Joseph's father is Jacob, while Luke 3.23 says it's Heli. That in itself seems to be a contradiction No Andy, one is definitely Mary's and the other Joseph's. Matthew's is Joseph and Luke

2 Kings 8.26 and 2 Chronicles 22.2; to differences in genealogies such as Matthew 1.6-17 and Luke 3.24-38. Com'on Andy this is not a contradiction at all. In Kings you have the King's age at 22 when he started his reign and in Chronicles it says he was 42. What we have here is a copyist's error eas

Did you know that Handel envisioned his masterpiedce as a piece appropriate for Lent and Easter? A quote in our local paper recently by conductor Rohan Smith: "It has retained its freshness over several hundred years because the music and subject matter resonates incredibly well this time of year." Also worth noting is the fact that this piece is divided into three parts with the text for each based on the OT.

The term Xmas is not a new invention Ya, I just learned a bit about that last year. I heard a story about the X....can't remember it tho and was surprised cuz I just thought the x was to "cross" out the Christ from the celebration of his own birth. But I figure this is bout the only time we can use t

No? Soooooo I didn't answer you? Kinda confused....is it a contradiction or not? Not sure why the guy at work (Greg) didn't come back with that one either. It's the most common. Any others? Com'on....I'm up for it!!! It's not so much that they changed but that they were fulfilled in Him. Like the Passover. The Jews were to keep it every year. Now if you look at the whole Passover Ritual you would see the foretelling of Christ. Like

History does not pinpoint the exact date of Jesus' birth. Some have said early fall and some think it was in the spring. It was in the spring when the Shepherds would keep extra care over their flocks at night as this was the time the ewes bore their young. Around 200 AD theologians believed Jesus was born around May 20. Some thought maybe it was in March or April

I KNEW YOU WERE GOING TO SAY THAT...... .... Ok here goes....he who has ears.....let him hear..... See what happens is when someone says it's a contradiction, others follow believing without delving into the source and checking it out. We must always find out for ourselves and not take another's word. Who was it that said...if you say it first people will believe it even

One, it is Old Testament, and Jesus is the new Covenant. You will find a lot of contradictions between the old testament and his teachings Hmmmm could you further elaborate? I would venture to say that there are no contradictions found in scripture. God, is the God of order, not disorder and does

As the mother of three in college....where do I go to get help? The problem is they are three normal white boys in a middle class family. That's like the kiss of death and all we get!! The good part is I believe my boys are so better off knowing the value of a buck and hard work. They work their butts off to get thru college. I think she needs to be held accountable for this.

Christianity IS the majority Well I guess I'll be in the minority with this here.....but I don't think (true) Christianity is the majority.

Well said Tova.....agree on all points!!! I'm just saying Doc, that Jesus taught us to pray and when he did he said to go to the Father and whatever we ask in the name of Jesus he would do. He will answer our prayers. He always does mine. Yes, no and wait is what I usually get. Some are so immediate it makes my head spin. It's an awesome feeling to be praying and get the answer instantly. Think what this world would be like if

WTG Tova....my sentiments exactly. I wanted to ask the Doc.....How did Jesus teach us to pray (Matt 6)? Also how did he show us an example himself praying (John 17)? I think it wise to follow HIS example and teaching directly. Not quite sure how you can say you are not praying to Mary with the "Hail Mary Full of Grace" repition.......if you are talking to a dead person you are praying to them. There's really no getting around that on

think most of it is due to the misconceptions. If you saw a group of Christians (and you were very religious), who worshipped idols and thought their leader was perfect, you would probably think they were nut cases too! yup, you got that right....<img src="../images/smiles/lol.gif" border=0 ALIGN="abs
