    Which brings us to Jesus Christ. I acknowledge a "Christ spirit" for want of a better expression. That is, I believe in various saviour gods - all of whom are reflections of a certain aspect of the divine. Osiris is one of them. Mithras is another.

    you are confused. You do not believe the Bible because if you did you would not be into false religion. your beliefs do not agree with the Bible. Believe what you like but i would suggest you believe in Jesus Christ and get saved so that you may live.

    I reject the biblical assertion that human beings are tainted and therefore need to grovel for forgiveness.

    We are saved by God's grace. So please tell me how that means we grovel for forgiveness. We just have to ask.

    Real One,

    No. I'm not confused. I didn't say I believed in all of the bible, I said that it has some value as a religious text.

    We are saved by God's grace. So please tell me how that means we grovel for forgiveness. We just have to ask.

    OK I am corrected on the "grovel for forgiveness" comment. Christianity does, however, require that we believe that humans are tainted and in need of redemption (and this comes from the Blood of Jesus of Nazareth being spilled). I don't accept that view.

    As for living, I'm living now and will continue to live after my physical death. I'm open to being taught new things. If God sees fit to destroy me because of that, then I dont want to know him/her.

    That if he exists he has abaddoned his creation and moved on. The more and more I ponder over this god, his lack of involvement, his lack of answering, I'm starting to believe there isn't one.

    Not just illogical but also steeped in a paranoid delusion.

    We're all deluded.

    hamilcarr,

    The statement didn't name anyone in particular. I'm curious. Why did you feel that it applied to you? (just yakin' your chain a little.....sorry)

    I'm sorry if I misunderstood you, the hint seemed obvious. I'd be happy to eat my words if that's the case.
