    God Did Not Write the Bible

    Well, they used to be. Classical fairy tales have been so mucked with in modern times that there is little to any inherent value in them left.

    Nine Religions of Divine Origin

    Actually that was precisely my point, though admittedly I came at it rather obliquely. By 'deciding' that there are nine major religions, that, by definition, makes all other religions, whether 4200 or 42000, lesser religions. It's the old oneupmanship that we humans do so effectively. You will...

    Nine Religions of Divine Origin

    No sugarcoating needed, nor even wanted. Neither political correctness. Just plain, simple ol' facts will do. Opinions are fine, but mileage varies from individual to individual. I think I did not pay enough attention to the part that this declaration is a Baha'i belief. If so, then fair...

    Nine Religions of Divine Origin

    Hello and welcome. I have some difficulties with the claims of this individual. "These religions are not the only true religions that have appeared in the world, but are the only ones still existing." Do tell. Don't let the other 4,200 religions that are in existence right now find out, even...

    Top 10 Required Books

    Orwell's 1984 is one of the all time great classics. He was off by a decade or two but his story is spot on!

    God Did Not Write the Bible

    There are many lovable Baptists. Even more loving Baptists. They are not the root of all things wrong about Christianity in America. They are one of several sects in this country that have been actively the most strident that their version of Christianity is the only one. They believe it is not...

    Your Daily Rant

    A custom OS based on XP? Now that is an interesting thing, as XP is still considered one of the best versions of Windows. I assume the 'custom' part is bringing the old OS up to modern security features and able to work with cutting edge technologies?

    Pantheism vs panentheism

    Not sure that is entirely accurate. You are not a Panentheist, you are a Christian Panentheist. Which expands the meaning of the original by combining it with another set of religious thinking. Not suggesting there is anything wrong with your belief structure. Just that said structure extends...

    Pantheism vs panentheism

    Yep. This sums up the difference between the two quite accurately.

    Can we know for certain anything about God and what he plans for us?

    Is that what I did? I told my experiences. This is what all too many Christians in the US do. Is that attacking faith? I rather think it is attacking Christians who have lost the path they say they follow. If you believe I am doing something else, it would interest me to have you explain why you...
