    How do you determine existence?

    Reading the Bible is like playing russian roulette. If you accept a false belief into the chamber of your mind and pull the trigger, it can kill you. For example, if you accept the belief that God banished Adam from the garden of Eden, and that he was justified in doing so because Adam...

    How do you determine existence?

    Whiteboard? I knew you were going to bring up the whiteboard test!:D Too easy. Wouldn't prove anything. Perhaps a friendly game of russian roullette on live television would be a better test. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylAHWVuPNus The trick is, you've got to be superior to...

    Intelligent design and extinctions

    This train of thought is very reasonable. Reason is a superior kind of logic, one that can lead to truth. There is another kind of logic that is not really reasonable because it has preconceived notions about what the outcome, or what the answer must be. This forces the biased logician to...

    Intelligent design and extinctions

    Genesis may well be a poor telling of a story about how... 100,000 years ago, beings from an advanced planet visited earth to begin a test in which they introduced two new layers of DNA into one of twenty evolving species of 'man'...inducing a giant leap in consciousness so profound as to...

    Intelligent design and extinctions

    Exactly. Something else to consider... That this particular type of universe is a 'private' universe, made by 'you' upon a system of thought, untrue at it's foundation, as a personal fantasy world. Consider that there is nobody out there, and you are alone. What appears to be out there...

    Intelligent design and extinctions

    It's a mask. God is everywhere. But the mask is also everywhere. The atom is a mask. The bearded figure is also a mask. Personalities are masks. Thoughts are also masks. This universe is a mask. Beyond all this is the unmasked. Jesus

    How do you determine existence?

    Let me ask you, what would it mean to you? Would it mean that I am divine... Would it mean that it's a miracle... Or, ??? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QYQtoe7g-8&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1N_UHhMpzk&feature=related If I got it right, would you...

    Intelligent design and extinctions

    It's a good question. One explanation is that the designer is intelligent, and that it's design functions as designed. Note that nothing lives but that something else dies. As a rule of thumb, everything devours everything else. Worms live when they devour carcasses. Then the worms...

    Ron Paul Rejects Evolution

    Well, Ron might not see it the way I do. His is more of a hunch/intuition. He doesn't exactly know why he thinks it's just a theory. It's the kind of hunch that might inspire someone to write, "all men were created equal", even though it's obvious that "men" are not equal at all. Jesus

    Ron Paul Rejects Evolution

    Good for Ron. In our original creation, we were created equal. There was no time involved. It was before time, in eternity. In the miscreation we made it look like we evolved. Even then, it is entirely an illusion since time is not linear. Even in time, what appears to be...

    Turok... Backing me up... Kind of ironic. Jesus P.S. Support your local sheriff. Thanks.:)

    Family tree and race..

    Race? Lineage? Doesn't make a bit of difference. They tried to puff me up by tracing my lineage back to King David. They huffed and puffed some more and traced it back to Abraham! I suppose they could trace me back to Adam if they tried hard enough. Adam came from great power and...

    POLL: Who is Jesus to You?

    I did not promote the extension of fleshly existence except that it fulfill the function of communicating the truth so you can learn it. At some point, on the way home, the body is put down like you would put down a tool on your way to dinner. Whether it is dropped, or whether it rises up...

    Are Evangelicals the New KKK?

    You have to understand that people got me wrong right from the beginning. Those travelling with me quarreled, bickered, wondered, debated trivia, split into sects, bowed to political correctness, and generally misunderstood me. Christianity grew out of a filtered version of my message. I...

    Are Evangelicals the New KKK?

    People today overlook the fact that when Constantine made Christianity the official religion of the Roman empire, it meant that by law any other religious or spiritual ideas were outlawed. So if your beliefs were not a part of the rapidly developing doctrines of the new church then you were an...

    How do you determine existence?

    What this means is that the Bible is not going to go away until you can read it properly. The word "fulfill" simply means to interpret. Here I demonstrate how to interpret the ten commandments, using "graven image" as an example. Now, if you will interpret the "law" this way, you...

    Are Males Obsolete?

    God has no image. So there is this commandment, "Make no graven image". To understand the ten commandments, you must consider yourself pure Spirit, equal to God, equally without image...but with the power to abuse the power of your mind. This is a commandment not to make images...

    POLL: Who is Jesus to You?

    This indicates that the cannon came down to a popularity contest. Most of the NT is about Paul, and his group of people chose which gospels they wanted you to see. Paul's letters actually pre-date the composition of the chosen gospels...but the gospels are inserted before Paul's letters...

    History channel killing Christianity

    Paul was a 'paulitician' who ingratiated himself into the auspices of certain of the apostles for street cred. And why not? James was seen by many as my heir apparent. He was, after all, a blood brother. Paul, the artist formerly known as Saul, was keen to win over the suspicions of James...
