Is there anything 100% accurate as Cosmology is concerned? Ben

What does it mean, that the earth has stopped circling around the sun and that the planetary systems are no longer travelling throughout the universe in the wagon of the galaxies? Ben

I agree with you, Nephilim. People from the literal interpretation club serve only to make holes in the Bible. And I mean both NT and Tanach. With regards to the immaculate conception doctrine, it is a great disservice Christians pay to Joseph, Mary and Jesus himself. Hence, the probability that...

Right. Not all of them are.

I read everything. One does not need to go for a 4-year college in Christian Theology to understand what the NT is all about. Ben

The best way to avoid such frustration is to ignore my posts. Ben

Oh yes, you are right, conversion to Judaism was indeed open during the time of Abraham and throughout History; hence instructions in Isaiah 56:1-8 to Gentiles willing to join God's Covenant with His People. The ending of easy enrollment to become Jewish occurred in the 4th Century, soon after...

For heavens' sake Radarmark, I watch a NOVA TV program every week here, and more than a Cosmologist speak about the expansion of the universe. And since Kopernicus and Galileo it is well known that the earth rotates around the sun. And that planetary systems move throughout the universe within...

The problem with Hizbollah and its false stability as an entity in Lebanon vis-a-vis Israel is due to the fiasco generated by our incursion into Lebanon to get the PLO out. Now, we prefer to listen to world public opinion and not break them once and for all. Were it that world politics left us...

First, there was no such a thing as "Palestine" when Alexander passed by the Land of Israel. If it was spared for being too insignificant, how come it became so significant under the power of Alexander's successor? The attitude of finding Israel so insignificant, cost Greece the lost of serveral...

Your question is related to an anthropomorphic idea of God. Of course, Einstein had the universe and the expansion of it as a result of fixed laws, which theists who understand metaphorical language attribute to God as the author of of what is natural in the universe. Can scientists explain how...

So do I. As you see, we are of the same opinion.

Neither do I. Thanks.

From a biography of his. As well as from some CD's in the You Tube website. Let alone from the logical point of view. Hundreds of years before Einstein was born, the gallaxies and planets in them have been all in the constant kinetic state of motion. Could it be that Einstein missed that one to...

IMHO, Jesus meant by saying some men make themselves eunuchs for the Kingdom, as proof that it is up to us to control our emotions in the pursuance of more lofty ideals. It corroborates my point of view that human emotions are subject to man's intellect and free will. Ben

Two points here only. The first is that I do not understand why we are having this discussion under this thread because the commandment in the Scriptures against homosexuality applies only to the Jews. Therefore, the Jewish Scriptures does not condemn this style of life among Gentiles. It means...

Every thing in man is a matter of choice. We have Intellect and free will. Only irrational animals that cannot reason are unable to distinguish good from evil. Regarding the question of who is worse, between a loving homosexual and a heterosexual who physically abuses his wife is a wrong...

OK. I'll bite. Why does God appear as three in the vision at Mambre? God bless, Thomas In this post of yours, you deny everything I said and by the same token, you agree with everything. What's going on, too hard to make up your mind? Ben

This is not a reply to my thread, nor can it be addressed to me. I do not take the Bible literally. Perhaps, the historical part only. If you don't either, it means we are in perfect agreement with each other. Ben
