True, but it probably wouldn't be as embarrassing if it were a 270 or something...if you survived! Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

Embellish much? Lately it seems as though you are having difficulty making a point without having to exaggerate. First, It's clear from the quotes I provided that I was referring to the NT. Second, of the 66 books in the Bible, only 8 were written in the last couple hundred years of the late bronze age. Many people like to cast doubt on scripture by attacking the reliabilty of the early writers and continually pointing out some of the more equivocal ideas that are only compised in a small portion of scripture. They avoid the more practical ideas like those found in Proverbs and Ecclesiastes. Much of the wisdom found in those books most certainly can be applied today and demonstrates that civilization back then wasn't as irrelevent as some would like it to be. For the most part, human nature hasn't changed much in the last several thousand years... It varries... Matthew was a tax collector, probably not the most honest person prior to his conversion, but he was a first person witness. Mark was not an eye witness but he did accompany Peter through his ministry as his interpreter. The book is considered to be the memoirs of Peter. Luke was not an eye witness but he was a physician who accompanied Paul durring his travels. He's believed to be the author of the book of acts and the gospel of luke. (I tend to be more partial to the content and literary style of this gospel.) John was a fisherman and eyewitness to Christ's earthly ministry. Many people consider fishermen to be liars... Peter was an overzealous loud mouth and like most apostles didn't really understand the objective of Jesus' ministry. It wasn't until he matured that he had anything beneficial to say. His writings are probably the most underrated and ignored books of the NT because of the tendancy to cause division. Basically, if you study Peter's writings you'll be able to spot a false teacher comming a mile away. False teachers running churches don't like this. Paul was a highly respect Pharisee...it's clear from his writings that he was no dummy. It's hard to say what christianity would be today without his insight and determination. None of this of course really matters once the spiritual truths drawn from scripture are applied and transforms one's life. I just don't buy it. It seems to me most people don't really understand the faith when they're young. As they grow into their teens and early twenties it tends to be virtually non-existent. they don't necessarilly consider themselves atheists, but thier beliefs just don't serve any practical relevence...out of sight out of mind. I think many atheists can relate to that...they grew up in religious families but the the lack of practice in their late adolescence through early adulthood evolved into atheism... It isn't until one matures and finds a reason to turn back and give it another shot that they can begin to see if they missed something and then apply scripture through faith to experience some type of life changing result and gain understanding. I don't buy that either. You can go out in public to the gocery store, library, the club, work, wherever and chances are that you're not gonna be hearing about some long drawn out discussion about God. It's hardly thrown into peoples' faces as much as they would like to claim. One could probably go their whole life without ever having to disclose their personal religious beliefs. I dare you to go out in public and start talking about judgement/atonement and see how many friends you make... Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

I simply answering your question of why doesn't God perform some miracles like he used to in the Bible. I gave you an explanation and you didn't like...big surprise. Your point, like always, is that God doesn't do things the way you want him to, therefore he is wrong and doesn't exist. He said I AM WHO I AM, not I am whatever you want me to be.... Pffft...reminds me of this: And those who passed by spoke reproachfully and abusively and jeered at Him, wagging their heads, And they said.....If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross. In the same way the chief priests, with the scribes and elders, made sport of Him, saying, He rescued others from death; Himself He cannot rescue from death. He is the King of Israel? Let Him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in and acknowledge and cleave to Him. Pesonally I wouldn't expect God to entertain and give way to such arrogance.

You're confusing "Christianity" with Nietzsche, which is a pretty big mistake. You don't know much about christianity do you? 2 Corinthians 12:10 For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong. Cross references:2 Corinthians 12:10 : [2Cor 5:15]; See Matt. 5:11, 122 Corinthians 12:10 : Rom. 5:32 Corinthians 12:10 : [2Cor 13:4] Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

who is bitching? This is just how christianity works. I thought my post was rather positive...all this negative publicity has worked out to be a good thing. Your challenges and ridicule only make us stonger. Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

christians aren't concerned with that...rejection is to be expected. Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

normal, really...in this day and age? How boring. I thinks it's more noble to be legit and true to one's self rather than to follow the crowd just to fit in. Talk about insecure. Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

big deal...besides, I wouldn't necessarilly consider you qualified to judge his motives. As I said, that's fine...it's working against them. Overall it says more to the detriment of their character rather than to his... Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

It is simple...I never gave much notice to him until people started making fun of him. I didn't even know he was a christian. Their ridicule is working against them. btw, I'm sure he'll agree that it shouldn't be him on a pedastal, but rather Christ. Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

The guy is just great for the faith, and the only thing the haters can do in a rather futile attempt to limit the positve affect of his testimony is appeal to ridicule. I find his faith very refreshing...I miss that and want it back. This roller coaster of carnality I've been on for the past 2 years is just crushing my spirit. Time to heed the warning against apostasy in Hebrews 5:11-14: About this we have much to say, and it is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing. For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the basic principles of the oracles of God. You need milk, not solid food, for everyone who lives on milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a child. But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.

Older woman + younger guy = doesn't work!!! I don't understand...do you still live with your parents to? Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

Ya, which is passed off as truth and imposed on evreyone else's beliefs as if it's some type of supreme authority... I think the point you're missing is that the result of a corrected mistake is something which is correct. Until they correct it again... I guess this is the part where we play penis swords and bicker back and forth shouting "I know you are, but what am I" for 2-3 pages until bilvon tells us to cut it out and locks the thread...

What's the most time you'd be willing to devote to a work commute?

Wow...no, not for a long term position. Maybe a year or two tops, and only if it offered a future. When I started off in sports television we'd work 80-100 hours a week plus traveling around the country from Thursday to Sunday every week...That experience and hard work has paid off. I really loved being on the road like a rock star, but seriously, it takes it toll...I couldn't imagine working at some job that I didn't absolutely love and having to spend an extra 4 hours per day of unpaid travel time for an extended period. It also depends on where you live...a 90 min commute in LA seems normal while here in michigan many people would consider you to be rather desperate. One thing I miss about California is everybody honking their horns under bridges while sitting in traffic...one in particular was on the 5 going toward Santa Clarita...I'm thinking the Balboa Blvd bridge, maybe?
