    Do serve God...or a 'Trinity'?

    Jesus is just, and he's righteous, and he is a prophet, that's already much. The Quran confirms that he is the Messiah, with all this implies without repeating the entire Gospel.

    Do serve God...or a 'Trinity'?

    According to the Quran, sent Mary His Word and His Spirit. The revealed Word is part of His all-comprising Principle/Logic/Law, the outside. The Spirit is God in us, the inside.

    Do serve God...or a 'Trinity'?

    Is God not with you? Jesus was given the name God Saves. Who saves? God doesn't conform anyway. His Word and His Spirit is. The righteous prophets spread out what they received from it, that we may conform us to His rules and His Kingdom.

    Do serve God...or a 'Trinity'?

    It's not taught anywhere in the scriptures. Adonai and Kyrios, like Lord is used for God but not exclusively. There are around 700 persons in the UK who are entitled to be addressed by Lord so and so, including Barons and Dukes who would be addressed as such because it's a higher title. Jesus...

    Muslim Reformers

    How do they organise? Do they found separate congregations (in particular, local) or do they join where they are not refused ?

    Muslim Reformers

    You are insisting in a simplistic understanding of the Quran and a simplistic understanding of the reception of the Logos to keep saying that it is nonsense. Nobody understands what he doesn't want to understand.

    Muslim Reformers

    I didn't read that book. It's true that Islam had its time of splendor before 1300 CE, with great theological scholars from Hasan al-Basri, Abu l-Hudhail, Al-Ghazali, Ibn Rushd until Rumi, and the splendor of Islam was suffocated by the intolerance towards free thinking. The same happened...

    Muslim Reformers

    Yep. Islamists threaten all Muslim who don't share their ideology. I would hesitate to publish with my real name here on this forum because my approach and my findings on the Message we received are very much opposed to theirs, so that I would likely end up in their elimination list.

    Evolution is Unscientific

    God does not need love. We need to love to be in harmony with the all around us. God does not need gratitude. We need to be grateful for and respectful to all around us, because there's plenty, in particular if we all know what we really need. There's rain and sunshine. Sometimes, there is too...

    Evolution is Unscientific

    referring to my statement, I consider the creation narratives as myths, i.e. a story with a message, not a report on what happened. We can know this from the scientific evaluation of all observations in biology, chemistry, astronomy and physics. But with all our science, we are not able to know...

    Evolution is Unscientific

    Don't put the believers in one pot. I have never come across a creationist who told me that in real life. I've never been in the U.S.A either...

    Evolution is Unscientific

    What we can know if we don't close our eyes is that the world was not really created in 6 days as the creation myths say. What we cannot know is how it really was. No. It doesn't.

    Evolution is Unscientific

    They can. It's just a mutation. For a new species, you need a lot of mutations (usually one after the other). For the split into two species, you need a separation of the population, either living in separate areas, or having a different 'culture', so that they don't feel attracted to...

    Why I take the Bible literally

    Did you ever consider to change your mind, and if you didn't ever consider, why?

    Evolution is Unscientific

    The calculation is wrong. Suppose it takes 2 million years for a species to split into two. Over 500 million years, we would have 250 separations, that makes 2^250. Makes around 1.8 * 10^75. 10^75 is a one with 75 zeros. There's no name for that number. This is of course only a demonstration...

    A-historical or Meta-temporal Fall

    Certainly better with your explanation. Hart's formulation can't be understood without this. Hart says, "the priesthood of creation", does he mean the vocation of plants, planets...? I personally have a rather negative connotation to priesthood as some people who want to be between us and God...

    A-historical or Meta-temporal Fall

    What greater master? What priesthood? Is that acceptable to Catholic faith?

    ZOROASTRIANISM

    You are right. What do you think about my last post here? Do you know more about Parsic influence on the Pharisee/Rabbinic Judaism?
