it's written in tradition.
anyways, i think you should concentrate on defending your own stories on Jesus, and leaving the Torah alone.

Well forgive me, I am curious. I don't recall Rachel or her family praying to idols, and would like confirmation.
I am not attacking the Torah. I am relying on it as well.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

It's an anachronism. Even Christ is older than the zodiac which is a roman invention by Ptolemy, let alone the patriarchs.I was just wondering what your opinions or others were of this take on astrological periods being a form of historical periodization used by Moses, Jesus and other Biblical figures.
Of course it does date back to the Babylonians, but the system as we know it now is from Ptolemy.Last edited by Ben Kenobi; August 3, 2009, 23:47.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

I posed a question to you earlier, as to why you thought I believed that the only correct biblical translation was in English?
I've never said such a thing.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

BC, I'm trying to keep out of this, but asking for proof that someone didn't say something is kind of ludicrous.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

I would say it's a faithful translation of the original Greek, Aramaic and Hebrew. It is correct, but it is not the only correct version.But how can you then say that the words of an english bible is the correct vrsion ?Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

I simply said I am unaware of any evidence showing that Rachel and her family prayed to idols, and would appreciate seeing the attested evidence.Njah, when it comes to what someone did or didn't some 2000 years ago, both kind of proof is nessecary.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

No, it's not. It's stupid today and it's stupid 2000 years ago. What are you going to do, see if anyone ever spoke of it ever? Good luck. With the way things are today, like studies to show that an elephant stepping on you may lead to trauma, I'm sure you can get around 17 mil grant for the next 3 years.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

I haven't seen anything saying KH doesn't jack off bulls. Does that mean he does? Not that it would be a big surprise, but you see my point. Why deny something that hasn't been accused?
As far as wife beating, look at your context. Did the worship ever happen, or did he beat his wife over the last 2 years, when clearly it should ask if he ever beat his wife. You're making no progress.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
