The Healers
by InterfaithMy late wife suffered from both peitit-mal and grand-mal epileptic seizures. Grand-mal seizures are now called something like ‘tonic-clonic’. She would have several petit-mal seizures each day and might have a grand-mal seizure every other night. I 1973 (ish) I took her to meet Harry Edwards, a well known healer in Leatherhead, England. MY wife […]

The Gospel of John
by Interfaithbadger said: ↑ Please can you give me an example of G-JOHNs geographic accuracy? This is from a longish exposition on the GoJ in general here:(7) The fourth Gospel actually presents a much more consistently chronological account of Jesus’ ministry, even though that emerges not as a primary intention but as a “fringe benefit” of its desire […]
Potential Evidence for the Possibility of God
by InterfaithSome people say that atheists wouldn’t accept the existence of God if God himself personally came down to verify his existence. I don’t think this is accurate.

The Laws of Moses……… perfect for their time.
by InterfaithI propose that the 613 laws of Moses (from Genesis, Numbers, Leviticus, Deuteronomy and others) were a perfect piece of legislation for the production of a fast growing, surviving, strong, healthy and cohesive people.

I mean if someone takes one or more aspects of any religion or culture and uses it to improve their relationship with life our earth […]
Does lifelong celibacy reduce or increase life expectancy?
by InterfaithI have been looking into this subject for awhile now. I cannot find any decent studies on the health effects of celibacy. Some people claim that celibacy is unhealthy, linking it to emotional repression. I think this is a misunderstanding of emotional repression since someone who is celibate need not repress anything. In fact, the […]

Ezekiel’s Atomic Wheels (and Four Living Forces)
by InterfaithI have been studying Ezekiel’s Wheels for many years. I have concluded that they are depicting Atoms as well as their relating Physics. Biochemistry is there as well. I will throw out some thoughts in case folks are interested… Ezekiel 1:4“And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, […]
