    Where does the Bible mention the Bar Mitzvah?

    If it’s not in the Bible, then is it Biblical? Why don’t Christians have this ritual? Do you think that Spielberg invented the “PG-13” rating because boys have Bar Mitzvah at 13?

    What did Justin Martyr mean by “transmutation”?

    In this quote, Justin Martyr mentions transmutation. What did he mean by this? What’s the original Greek word (or if he spoke it in Latin, what’s the original Latin word?). How was that original word used in daily use in that generation? How was it used in conversation? What context is it...

    Does Satan cast out Satan?

    I was confused, because people said the Apocryphal book of Tobit endorses sorcery, because Tobias used animal organs for driving out a demon. But Acts 13 says that a sorcerer is a son of the Devil. I can’t imagine a son of the Devil casting out a demon. Didn’t Jesus say somewhere that Satan...

    Why does Genesis 1 and 2 contradict?

    Genesis 1 says plants were made before man. But Genesis 2 says that when man was made, plants didn’t exist yet. Uh oh! We have a contradiction here! So, should we rip chapter 1 out of our Bibles, or chapter 2? Or should we just remove Genesis entirely from our Bibles? Certainly we shouldn’t...
