Hi Wil, These choices are all one sided. Where are the ones that balance these? I'd have to vote none of the above.

Hi Netti-Netti, Doesn't this have everything to do with the blessing of the Holy Spirit on the gentiles ( which occurs within the next few paragraphs) and nothing to do with food? Well, that's the way it appears to me anyway.

Re: Christians: Do you accept the supernatural and the miracles of the NT? A greater great or a lesser of a great. I agree it's perplexing the combining of the OT and NT in the Christian Bible. There are plenty of "outs" for the Christian not to have to follow the OT. The requirement's for...

I agree, scripture and prayer.

For a Catholic who has been shown that the ritual is the teaching, and is not aware of the actual, important, insightful, Biblical teachings of Christ, that person has been ill informed and might be surprised to find that he is not a Christian. And yes, not all Catholics are Christian and not...

Hi Netti-Netti, From Isaiah 45:9 and 64:8 we learn that the creating is closer to that of potter and clay. 45:9 "Woe to the one who quarrels with his Maker- an earthenware vessel among the vessels of earth! Will the clay say to the potter, 'What are you doing?' Or the thing you are making say...

I think you guys were supposed to quote an "expert" source to back up your opinions. .02

Happy Birthday InLove! But the birthday gift is for us all. She left lots of wonderful stuff here.

Hmm, I would have thought that the human condition was one that does not need to do drugs to seek and find. :confused: :(
