You can 'take' a class and not subscribe to what is being taught. There are thousands of colleges across this nation that teach anti Christian, some required to grad.

I actually enjoy science but I also keep it in its place - it is my belief that God created science, and the scientists.

No offense, but the writers of the " Gay & Lesbian bible" claim their version is the original. It tells readers that they too can be gay and not feel any guilt about it.


A good source of why the King James Bible is the original scripture.

if that is what you truly believe, then i suggest that you take some time to actually learn science. if your god is correct, then that's the hold up?

you don't "subscribe" to a belief system of science, you understand as the information that is given are put to a test that is consistently repeatable. it is you who is "subscribing" to a belief system without any data to prove your point.

there is a difference between being "faithful" and subscribing to a "blind faith"

Again, no offense but I choose not to saturate my mind with non believing material - all material created after the original Bible is counterfeit - and of satan.

Just my beliefs - and what, and how, I choose to believe. The Bible warns us of putting ourselves in the path of evil or satan - and I consider any other 'scriptures' to be just that.

I have all the "data" I need in the King James Bible.

As I said earlier, my beliefs aren't up for debate - discussion, but not debate.

I'm just stubborn that way about my faith.

Jesus is a modern day rehash of all the pagan gods.

A snippet from another site explaining.
www.religioustolerance.org...

Similarities between Pagan and Christian practices

The early Christians and Pagans shared many rituals and practices. Authors Freke & Gandy appear to assume that all of the copying was done by Christians from Pagan sources. 3 However, some might have gone in the opposite direction. During the 3rd century CE, Mithraism and Christianity were the main competitors for the religious affiliation the citizens of Romans. Some Christian practices might have actually been picked up by the Mithraites, rather than vice-versa.
bullet Many early Christians celebrated Jesus' birthday on JAN-6. Armenian Christians still do. In Alexandria, in what is now Egypt, the birthday of their god-man, Aion, was also celebrated on JAN-6.
bullet Christians and most Pagans eventually celebrated the birthday of their god-man on DEC-25.
bullet According to an ancient Christian tradition, Christ died on MAR-23 and resurrected on MAR-25. These dates agree precisely with the death and resurrection of Attis.
bullet Baptism was a principal ritual; it washed away a person's sins. In some rituals, Baptism was performed by sprinkling holy water on the believer; in others, the person was totally immersed.
bullet The most important sacrament was a ritual meal of bread and wine which symbolize the god-man's body and blood. His followers were accused of engaging in cannibalism.
bullet Early Christians initiated converts in March and April by baptism. Mithraism initiated their new members at this time as well.
bullet Early Christians were naked when they were baptized. After immersion, they then put on white clothing and a crown. They carried a candle and walked in a procession to a basilica. Followers of Mithra were also baptized naked, put on white clothing and a crown, and walked in a procession to the temple. However, they carried torches.
bullet At Pentecost, the followers of Jesus were recorded as speaking in tongues. At Trophonius and Delos, the Pagan priestesses also spoke in tongues: They appeared to speak in such a way that each person present heard her words in the observer's own language.
bullet An inscription to Mithras reads: "He who will not eat of my body and drink of my blood, so that he will be made on with me and I with him, the same shall not know salvation." 1 In John 6:53-54, Jesus is said to have repeated this theme: "...Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day." (KJV)
bullet The Bible records that Jesus was crucified between two thieves. One went to heaven and the other to hell. In the Mithras mysteries, a common image showed Mithras flanked by two torchbearers, one on either side. One held a torch pointed upwards, the other downwards. This symbolized ascent to heaven or descent to hell.
bullet In Attis, a bull was slaughtered while on a perforated platform. The animal's blood flowed down over an initiate who stood in a pit under the platform. The believer was then considered to have been "born again." Poor people could only afford a sheep, and so were literally washed in the blood of the lamb. This practice was interpreted symbolically by Christians.
bullet There were many additional points of similarity between Mithraism and Christianity. 2 St. Augustine even declared that the priests of Mithraism worshiped the same God as he did:
bullet Followers of both religions celebrated a ritual meal involving bread. It was called a missa in Latin or mass in English.
bullet Both the Catholic church and Mithraism had a total of seven sacraments.
bullet Epiphany, JAN-6, was originally the festival in which the followers of Mithra celebrated the visit of the Magi to their newborn god-man. The Christian Church took it over in the 9th century.

And Allah - and the entire Muslim 'religion' tries to copy the original Bible - only they worship Allah as their God.

Again, mankind changes/copies/rewrites to suit his own agenda.

Allah is a pagan god.

The Catholics are due thanks for your bible. Did you think the Presbyterians invented it?

The Bible speaks directly against pagan gods.


Not sure why you are so insistent that I read anything other than what I believe to be true.

It's dangerous to give satan a foothold - and picking up a book that tries to denounce God and His Bible is of, and from, satan.

Sooo....... no thanks. And that would be my final answer.

Nah........... type 1 diabetics to those who suffer from amelogenesis imperfecta isn't a sin mentioned in the Bible.

that is exactly what hate groups such as ku klux klan and nazi's said.

what i believe is righteous, everything else that disagrees with my idea is false.

there is a word for such behavior, it is called "bigotry".

i certainly hope that you can broaden your such ethnocentric view.

i will graciously bout out as this is a christian sub-forum part of this site.

good night, and please never stop learning.
