Pat Robertson challenges Young Earth Creationism

[Nikolai]

I actually know a lot of christians who don't believe that Christ is returning.

That Jesus will return is well based in the bible and a fundamental part of the Christian belief. You sure these Christians actually belive in the gospel?

[Zevico]

So is there going to a cage match?

[MrFun]

Are you seriously suggesting that Romney did *not* completely reverse course/flat out lie in the first debate regarding his previous positions in the campaign? Because we can go point-by-point through each of his debate answers and compare them to his previous statements and positions to show that this is indeed the case.

(waits for HC to reply)

I think they are universalists.

[Ben Kenobi]

Then they aren't Christians, plain and simple. "He shall return again to judge the living and the dead,"

I think they are universalists.

Aaah. That makes complete sense.

Why would you bother? You won't change his mind and the election is over.

ACK!

former Church of Ireland Archbishop of Armagh James Ussher

Imran, I hate the crap reporting on religion topics. But they do this for a reason. *sigh*. Ussher is COI.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Are you that arrogant to think that everyone associates Archbishops with the Catholic Church unless otherwise stated?

[giblets]

SIGH I guess they got the title of a 17th century archbishop slightly wrong

[Imran Siddiqui]

Actually his title is correct. Ben just thinks because they didn't specify he was in the Church of Ireland (part of the Anglican Communion), people will think that he's actually a Catholic Archbishop.

[giblets]

Actually he might have a stick up his butt because they called him the "archbishop of Ireland" instead of "Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of all Ireland". Who really knows.

ACK!

A fair point. I'm satisfied enough that Romney was humiliated in the election, so no need to beat a dead horse.

[Felch]

Are you that arrogant to think that everyone associates Archbishops with the Catholic Church unless otherwise stated?

Yeah, absolutely. At least in countries that are majority Catholic. If you were talking about the Archbishop of Canterbury, or the Archbishop of Athens, then it would be different. Why wouldn't you associate Archbishops with the largest Christian community that uses them?

The Catholic Church is also the largest Christian community that uses priests. And I believe (I may be mistaken) that the Anglican Communion is the 2nd largest Christian community in the world (& Ireland - also I assume most people know there are tons of Anglicans in Northern Ireland).

So when you hear Archbishop Desmond Tutu, you immediately assumed he was Catholic instead of Anglican?

[Felch]

When I first heard of him, I assumed he was a Catholic Archbishop. I soon found out that he wasn't. The Catholic Church is about ten times the size of the Anglican Communion. Why wouldn't I assume that an Archbishop is Catholic?
