Should old acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind? Should old acquaintance be forgot, and auld lang syne? For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne, we'll take a cup of kindness yet, for auld lang syne. HAPPY NEW YEAR to those that celebrate, and those that don't. 😁

I have made a search facility on my site >>here<< for anybody interested :)

Moved discussion comments about the subject onto this new thread, to avoid derailing @wil's thread Interfaith prayer … for all https://www.interfaith.org/community/threads/19982/ The title of this thread can be changed to whatever anyone suggests? RJM @muhammad_isa I apologize that the...

I'm off to the Birmingham Vineyard tonight, for a service/meeting, God willing. "God has called us to build a church in one of Europe's youngest cities where the overwhelming majority of people are not following Jesus. Birmingham Vineyard exists to help people follow Jesus, live life to the...

8 Jan 2019 — Russian Orthodox leader Patriarch Kirill warns Antichrist could be "at the head of the worldwide web". Oh dear! :(

No. Then there would be two gods. :D

The East-West religious distinction, just as with the East-West culture distinction, and the implications that arise from it, is broad and not precise. While many Western observers attempt to distinguish between Eastern philosophies and religions, this is a distinction that does not exist in...

Almighty God says in the Qur'an:- 49 And We verily gave Moses the Scripture, that haply they might go aright. 50 And We made the son of Mary and his mother a portent, and We gave them refuge on a height, a place of flocks and watersprings. 51 O ye messengers! Eat of the good things, and do...

I think I shall talk to myself for a while.. ..unless anybody has anything to ask me in here. @RJM Corbet is fed up with me.

This link / ref. might be particularly interesting for those who believe in evolution.. http://www.thenazareneway.com/lords_prayer.htm It reminds me of so-called "Chinese whispers". It also reminds me of how our picture of reality can be strongly affected by those who author / interpret /...

I just wondered what people's opinions on this were .. including polytheists and atheists. :)

For the last couple of months, we have been discussing on IO the subject of Jesus claiming to be God due to a general article on the original website. @RJM Corbet and probably others are getting pretty fed up with it by now :) The "new perspective" was started with E. P. Sanders' 1977 work...

I do reject it as being "what the Arians believed". "It is held for certain that there is one God, the Father Almighty, as also is preached in all the world. " That is the opening statement of what the Roman church refers to as "the Blasphemy of Sirmium". I assume you are aware, that...

King Alfred is the best Christian king that Britain has ever had, imo. What a blessing! Unfortunately, by the time we get to Henry VIII, things started to go downhill. If it wasn't for Oliver Cromwell, God KNOWS where we would be now. :)

V. Garaffa: if Jesus did not say it, how dare men use this ‘sacred’ vehicle to demand that he did when they admit to the contrary? In the same manner, they have used God’s Holy Scriptures to advance their own doctrines and traditions throughout history. Thomas: But, on the other hand, if Jesus...

Yes, it is. It's also true .. it is relatively recent history. :) Muhammad, peace be with him, was born in 570 AD in the Arabian city of Macca. When he was 40 (610), Muhammad reported being visited by Gabriel in a cave {hira) and received his first revelation from God. In 613, Muhammad started...

It seems that China is almost back to pre-epidemic levels of pollution. They've decided its time to go "back to the grindstone". What remains to be seen, is how long it takes GLOBALLY to recover. It might well be that growth will be difficult for all of us including China. ..in which case we...

..continued from the thread "salvation" and "enlightenment".. Not really. The Bible is a collection of scrolls from various authors. The Bible canon was not decided by God. I understand that many Chrstians believe the Bible to be "revelation", in the sense that its authors were inspired by...
