wrote in message ... than you soooo much for this info. INgrid The 2 PM show is hosted by Michelangelo Signorile. While it covers topics of the gay community, it is mostly focused on politics. He has some wonderful guests who have written books and articles that you will never hear about from the regular media. Unfortunately, I believe that today they are running a repeat of some event they recorded on the weekend while Mike is addressing some convention. You might want to skip today's show. |

She reminds me of me and everyone else I grew up with in Brooklyn! I don't
think my accent is as thick as hers, but I concentrate on not having that old accent. She is very funny, but also very smart. V On Thu, 24 Jun 2004 05:30:11 GMT, opined: that is me too.

"John A. Keslick, Jr." wrote in message ... The bible is fiction, a myth, baloney, made up by sheephearders 2000 years ago, get over it and get a life! Yeah, better base your life on NBC! http://biblebabble.curbjaw.com/godl01.htm "Contrary to popular assumption the Bible did not descend from heaven carried by flocks of angels, nor was it dictated to mortal scribes by a god; it was written and embellished by some 40 authors - prophets, kings, politicians and clergymen in a variety of styles over a 1600 year period. It was written in Hebrew, Greek (vernacular), Aramaic, Syriac, Coptic and Latin. On stone, wood, clay, goatskin and papyrus. However the foundations of Christianity and Bible we know today were laid by religious bureaucrats of the 4th century AD, when the first Roman Emperor to convert to Christianity, Constantine the Great (274-337 AD), needed a single canon to constitute the Christian faith in hopes of unifying a cracking empire. Until this time Christian leaders could not agree on Christ's relationship to God, or which texts should be considered the word of god and which should not. Two meetings were convened at Nicaea, in what's today northwest Turkey, to codify the emerging religion. The first in 325AD and second in 787AD. During the momentous first Council of Nicaea delegates debated pertinent theological issues, such as the divinity of Jesus Christ; proposed books for inclusion in the sacred canon and voted the word of god into existence." This is complete crap, and I strongly suggest you read around the subject more. There are plenty of sites about what the Council of Nicaea did and did not do, including documents from it, and I suggest you go and look. "The central tenets of Christianity is that Jesus of Nazareth was the son of god, one part of a divine trinity: born of a virgin, he preached to the masses, suffered, died on the cross for the sins of man and rose from the dead on the third day. This, along with the belief that his birth was preceded by miraculous events, political intrigue and heralded by wise-men form the foundation of the Christian faith. However Christianity is either peppered with themes coincidentally similar to much older Eastern religions, or these similarities are proof positive that church founders plagiarized other faiths: " This is intellectually illiterate.

This is intellectually illiterate.
But true! Half true at best. The stories are similar on a few points, coincidentally the only ones you'd choose to broadcast. I won't ask you if you know the points where the divergences are huge, of course you won't know them. Even on points of similarity, the Hebraic revelations of creation are the only ones with which with the findings of modern science consistently comport (www.reasons.org). As to "messianic" stories, indeed knowledge was in the world of the coming of a savior long before he came. The Bible is clear on this. That versions of this amazing prophecy appears in the myths of most civilizations is not a disproof of Christ as you contend but evidence of it's universal significance to mankind. So, the question is today as it was six thousand years ago. Which messiah, if any, is the real one? That's the wonder of the exceptional quality of free will that God gave only to his Adamic creation: everybody here gets to pick his messiah. That you despise the one called Jesus is boringly clear. It's also clear you're too much a fool to realize you'll soon be conjuring your own messiah to unify a troubled world as you see it. Speaking of plagarism, from whence do you think liberalism's twisted materialist egalitarianism originally derived, Marx? Carter? "Liberalism is the only religion where gratitude is a sin." |

The Bible is clear on nothing, that is why there are over 33,000 Protestant Cults all claiming to be the only true church. Casper the Friendly Ghost is clear on his good doings. Both works of fiction but both just as valid, Hoy Ghost, Friendly Ghost, get it? VBG I've heard the call. I believe God wants me to run for president. -- George W. Bush, quoted in George Magazine, September, 2000 Nothing [Bush] does can be challenged on moral grounds, however unethical or evil it might appear, because all of his actions are directed by God. He can twist the truth, oppress the poor, exalt the rich, despoil the earth, ignore the law--and murder children--without the slightest compunction, the briefest moment of doubt or self-reflection, because he believes, he truly believes, that God squats in his brainpan and tells him what to do. -- Chris Floyd, CounterPunch, 7/30/03 George Bush was not elected by a majority of the voters in the United States. He was appointed by God. -- Lt. Gen. William Boykin, the defense undersecretary in charge of hunting down top terrorists in Iraq and Afghanistan No, I don't know that atheists should be considered as citizens, nor should they be considered as patriots. This is one nation under God. -- George Bush Sr., to a reporter in 1988 We Americans have no commission from God to police the world. --Benjamin Harrison The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion. --George Washington, Treaty of Tripoli, 1796 Christianity neither is, nor ever was a part of the common law. --Thomas Jefferson, February 10, 1814 Comparison of some life events of Horus and Jesus: Event Horus Yeshua of Nazareth, a.k.a.
