    What if Modern Christianity is just the other end of the telephone?

    So, you have your version of the Bible, and Nathan has his, and each person wants to decide for himself what belongs in it and what does not. None of that does the first thing to cast doubt upon the actual Bible.

    What if Modern Christianity is just the other end of the telephone?

    "Early Christian beliefs" does not represent the faith of the early Church. What Bercot is cataloging here are the aberrant beliefs of numerous INDIVIDUALS, some of whom collected a following for their ideas. Some amounted to sects for awhile, but ultimately were condemned and faded away while...

    What if Modern Christianity is just the other end of the telephone?

    Maybe that thought crossed my mind when I was a child, but the reason that the analogy fails is because we do have the record of how the church has developed over time. Some people appreciate the fact while others think it disproves Christianity, but that's their problem. As for the validity...

    What can we conclude from this?

    There are similarities between all religions because spirituality is a matter of men seeking higher truths. But none of that bothers me or causes me any doubts because what matters is which path, if any, leads to eternal life. If Christ is the Savior and the Bible true, then that's it. If some...

    Biden fell off bike

    I don't think there's much of a comparison to be made between the two men. And it wasn't until Reagan left office--FOURTEEN YEARS AFTER HE WAS ELECTED, in fact--that he was diagnosed as being in the early stages of Alzheimers. This other guy, from his first year as president, couldn't find his...

    Does your church address racism?

    Of course I did not, so we're through here.

    Biden fell off bike

    I didn't know quite what to make of this incident for the reason that it's possible to lose one's balance when lifting the trailing leg over that bar just below the seat. However, that doesn't usually cause the rider to fall down.

    Pickled

    Top notch, in other words! Congratulations. I don't buy any other brand.

    Does your church address racism?

    I didn't say you are confused and ignorant. I said that your posts are confusing/unclear and you get testy when people don't know how to take your claims, simply because they ARE unclear. Haven't you noticed, after all the urging, that what you've written here doesn't identify what you think...

    Does your church address racism?

    And you think that was being "clear?" Enough of this. If you want to go on being confusing, keep writing ambiguous messages about posts other than the one your reply appears to reference. Then you can follow that up by acting aggrieved when you aren't understood--and not by this reader only...

    Does your church address racism?

    Okay. So it's not as though I haven't offered anything to the discussion. And yet your reply was "If you have something to say, say it. I'm willing to talk." (?) At the heart of that particular matter, the fact is that you didn't make your position about racism and the churches clear. Saying...

    What belief in your denom do you find strange?

    Something like your "short list" probably does represent the minimum that we'd expect of anybody who wants to be considered a Christian, but it doesn't answer the question asked by the Original Post, does it?.

    Does your church address racism?

    Let's start with you reading the four or five messages I've already posted in this thread and which contain plenty that's deserving of your consideration.

    What belief in your denom do you find strange?

    There might be some, but I can't think of any offhand. And if there is one, it isn't about an important doctrine. That's one reason I feel comfortable belonging to that church.

    Does your church address racism?

    Well, that kind of talk is not inconsequential. In fact, it goes right to the problem with this word (racism). The term doesn't mean anything in particular but is nevertheless a go-to accusation that the political Left uses on anyone and everyone that it chooses to smear for just about any...

    Does your church address racism?

    ?? So which is it to be--race determines human capabilities, and one set is superior to others... OR One skin tone is inherently superior to all other ones?

    PGA verses LIV

    I'm not much of a golfer, but I think what I was trying to say was that there is much to like about both of them--hiking on a beautiful nature trail and playing a round of golf on an attractive course, which most of them are. Getting a good golf score--whatever that might be for each...

    PGA verses LIV

    It could be considered a waste in very much the same way that croquet or bowling or horseshoes or curling or shuffleboard could be called pointless and a waste of time. Would we agree with that? Maybe not, because there is the competition, plus the fact that the events are games of skill, and...

    Does your church address racism?

    I did. That's why I and others recognized the ploy right away. ;) Sure. We're open to discussing all manner of serious topics. But this one is stillborn unless and until you define the issue you want debated. Then we could return to the issue that the originator of this thread intended.

    Why do the two Christmas stories contradict?

    So...it's meant to be entertainment for you rather than a call to all Christian readers to engage in a discussion that might shine light on a controversial issue. From what I know, it's the latter objective that's in synch with the rules, not the first one.
