Something i've never understood, perhaps you could answer for me?
by highdose ini have never understood how adults that have had a life in the normal world could be brainwashed into this cult?
ok i know it dosn't happen very often, about 1 in every 10 years in my experiance.
but it dos happen all the same?.

Doesn't an 'allegorical' Garden of Eden nullify the need for a Ransom?
by AK - Jeff ini have noted in the past few months or years that christians, when faced the nearly insurmountable evidence that the garden of eden events are improbable if not impossible [i refer to fossil evidence that supports hominid existence on this planet perhaps millions of years ago, as example] to overcome, that the 'fall back' position is often that the garden of eden account is just allegory, not literal.. but it occurs to me that if it is just allegorical, then there is no specific event to mark the 'fall of man' and 'original sin'.
without that, what purpose is served with the idea of a 'ransom' in which 'the last adam' overcomes the sin of adam in the garden.
why would nt writers refer to the events as if literal if they are just allegory?

I pretty obviously don't believe in christianity & christian ideas of 'perfection' & 'being saved'... so don't you think it's a bit dumb of you to respond to me from the christian perspective? I think you'd have been far better off just ignoring me, since i quite clearly stated how little i appreciate your arrogant & judgemental input.

Except evolution is not a progression, & our morality is not better than that of other animals, it just suits our needs. We have the luxury to be moral. So all in all, christianity & judaism = fail.

I need no saviour sir. Speak for yourself. I really wish christians would do that, they speak on behalf of humankind FAR TOO MUCH & some of us are getting just a little sick of it to be quite honest.

Ah, what awful timing!
by Psychotic Parrot intrust this to be in the news during the same month as the peace & security-based 'special talks'.
not a patch on the 1986 year of peace, but still, it'll get some j-dubs murmuring.
the volcano in iceland doesn't help either, seismic activity has always been a 'sign' for them.. http://news.sky.com/skynews/home/world-news/middle-east-peace-israel-under-pressure-from-us-over-settlement-growth/article/201004315608794?f=rss.

Maybe President Obama should launch a war on time.
