Any Christians out there?

Worthy of respect? Certainly. Worthy of worship? Worship tends to connote greed, awe, and/or fear, not respect.

Ethel, please. You can mock me by personal message. Have a little respect.

I wasn't mocking you. I was pointing out a bit of reality.

Christ IS a title. Its not a name.

Sacramental wine in the US IS Mogan David (I say US because that is made from Concord grapes and they are native to America) is or at least it was back when I was a Catholic. To a Catholic THAT IS THE Blood of Christ.

If Christ is defined merely as the annointed one then there were a LOT of them. If Christ is defined as the Messiah than Jesus did not qualify. The Messiah MUST have an Earthly Kingdom or he isn't the Messiah. Its part of the definition.

Just because I disagree with you Jimmy it doesn't mean I am mocking you.

That goes for John Miller as well. You also should be able tell the difference.

small because you are not capable right now of imagining something so immense

and I would worship God even if I did not beleive in an afterlife or beleived that God cared for me (but if I did not beleive that God cared for me, I probably wouldn't love Him)

that is because the concept of worship is so messed up here because those earthly men who want worhip are not worthy of it

just because most of what man worships is not worthy of worship does not make worship invalid though

While I knew what you said to be factually correct, the way you said it was mocking

Key word here is imagining.

What if god hates bores?

I suspect he does?

Now that is closer to mocking. Learn the difference Jimmy and John.

Of course it is concievable. If Dan can think of then your idea of god could think of it.

What is worthy of worship, and why? For that matter, what is worship?

[Jon Miller]

I agree that that was mocking also

but you were mocking Jimmy for his lack of knowledge

This was in response to Jimmy's "Okay, Ethel doesn't know anything about [the blood of Christ]." *** for tat, he who lives in a glass house, and all that jazz.
