See, I knew you'd spin it to say what you wanted it to say. I read half a dozen spin attempts and they were all different. Why would anybody want a religion that could be interpreted in countless different ways. It's why there are 2500 different kinds of Xtian churches. Insanity. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

All I asked you to do was to get some context read some other parts of the Bible and see if you really, honestly believe it says what you want it to say. If you aren't willing to do that then please stop asking me about how you think the Bible should be interpreted. By the way none of those 2500 different Christian Churches would ever interpret that verse the way you have. We are all united in that and so many other things because we love Jesus and His teachings. That you think you know better than all those 2500 Churches and dare to tell us how to interpret the Scriptures is pretty insane to me. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

That's spinning it, that's casting a Shadow of doubt on what he meant. I don't think spinning means what you think it means. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
