Anwar Al-Awlaki and due process any thoughts?
by MoneurMallard inrecently anwar al-awlaki was killed by the u.s. government.
he was a u.s. citizen, and no due process was given, he was just killed outright, no arrest, no trial, no court.. any thoughts?.

Here Comes "The Sun"
by MoneurMallard inwhat are everyone's thoughts on the concept of a solar deity in relation to the jesus story?.
now this is something i have entertained over the years, the stunning relationship of the solar myths and the way the gospels describe jesus' death and resurrection as compared with the roman saturnalia.
it's odd that jw's are about to recognize that christmas doesn't originate with christ (thank god for that because i still celebrate christmas and don't care if it has anything to do with a religious figure or not, i celebrate it because i like the idea of giving people gifts, i love the smell of the trees, i love the lights, snow, all of it... i could care less if a thousand year old prophet in another continent thinks it's a "custom of the nations".... well i love america and it's a nation that deserves to be thankful for it's luck of the draw, and if it wants to mix customs and holidays, so be it..... your thoughts, fellow ex-socks?.

Martha My Dear...
by MoneurMallard ini wonder what it was like to be around when noah's ark landed.
to be there when shem said to his son, "go pork your sister" (in order to repopulate the species)..... i'm paraphrasing of course, i'm not really sure if shem's son's sister was named martha or not.. the degree of incest alone is enough to turn away any logical rational person from the bible.
of course it had to have begun long before noah's time, even when adam and eve were conceiving, there must have been lots of sexual perversions taking place.... this is of course all lunacy, as the human race began with several distinct chromosomes and species emanating from several different gene pools at different intervals.

Everybody's Got Something To Hide, Except For Me And My Monkey
by MoneurMallard inhere's another example of the hyprocrisy of the biblical jesus... when questioned after his arrest, he responded to the high priest caiaphas by saying.... joh_18:20 jesus answered him, "i have spoken openly to the world.
i have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all jews come together.
so he claims to have done nothing in secret, basically lying through his teeth to caiaphas... then what the hell is all this "tell no one about this or that" stuff all through the synoptic gospel accounts of his ministry?

For the Benefit of Mr. Kite...
by MoneurMallard inthe new testament is very much like a carnival or a circus when you think about it... .
just look at the contradictions between jesus and paul for instance..... .
mat 5:17 "do not think that i have come to abolish the law or the prophets; i have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.

Happiness Is A Warm Gun
by MoneurMallard inever notice how many new testament verses show jesus in support of taking up a sword or going out and buying a sword?.
"prince of peace" yet, "do not think i came to bring peace, i came to bring, not peace, but a sword".... (i'm paraphrasing from mat 10:34).
luk_22:36 he said to them, "but now let the one who has a moneybag take it, and likewise a knapsack.

Looking through a glass onion
by MoneurMallard inhas anyone given any consideration to the fact that the torah strictly prohibited sorcery and those who spoke with the dead, and the acts of jesus during his ministry?.
deu 18:9 "when you come into the land that the lord your god is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominable practices of those nations.
deu 18:10 there shall not be found among you anyone who burns his son or his daughter as an offering, anyone who practices divination or tells fortunes or interprets omens, or a sorcerer .

The Walrus Was Paul
by MoneurMallard inmany new testament biblical students today of both messianic jewish and christian backgrounds, are finding out that paul of tarsus simply doesn't fit with the remainder of new testament theology.
there is an article i've recently read, from the judaism vs. christianity dot com website that deals explicitly with this topic.... well, now i cannot seem to access it, but here is the link:.
