Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. -James

Paul still got offed pretty early in the game. I'd say right around the time Nero set Rome on fire. 64AD +/- I'm not discounting the missionary efforts of the other Apostles. Jesus himself is rumored to have built the first Wattle Church in Cornwall, a tradition recognized by the Catholic...

Today, the word genius tends to carry cerebral connotations, rather than spiritual ones, but the word has its origin in ancient Roman religion, in which the genius (from Latin gignere, “to beget”) was originally a spirit who gave continuity to a family or clan over generations, and later the...

I understand Luke to have been Paul's travelling companion, like a secretary sort of. Acts is the second part of the Gospel of Luke, he wrote both.

Paul was in a unique position to translate a Hebrew / Aramaic if not Jewish belief into a Greco-Roman-Pagan world. It is because of the missionary efforts of Paul that the message was carried far afield from Israel / Judea, travelling around the Greek speaking merchant cities around the Med...

Ya big galoot! And I know it's an act, a clown is a professional galoot. That's what gets under my skin. I can't stay mad at you. But I will ask politely, would please turn down the condescending attitude? Thank you. I still luv ya, ya big galoot.

I really like the color blue, so I choose the blue one - that is rational. Nothing to do with logic.

Rational and logical are different. Rational is reasoned. Logic is either / or. "Proof" relates to logic, and may or may not have anything to do with "rational." For reality to be logical, it must always at all times be logical. One instance of illogic and reality must be classed as...

A white buffalo calf is exceptionally rare. This is not an albino, it has black eyes and black nose. It is considered sacred by some Native American tribes.

The claimant said there is no proof of G!d. But one cannot prove He doesn't exist. So which is it? Physics, yes. Logic, no. Is Schrödinger's Cat alive, or dead? Both, but that's not logical. Logic deals with either / or, it cannot be both.

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice You can choose from phantom fears, and kindness that can kill I will choose a path that's clear, I will choose free will -Rush I've chosen my path, you've chosen yours...by free will...

Just another logical syllogism, but since you've made your choice the question is moot...for you. Perhaps not for the next person.

Logic extends mathematically to the concept of fairness. It's usually played as a zero sum game, all or nuthin'. Life ain't always fair. Ergo, life is illogical. Logic gave us a sense of viewing the world around us that we hope makes sense to understand what's going on around us at a given...

True Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Much in reality, what IS, is illogical Much in reality is illogical Perhaps He needs you? That is your choice.
