Well....it was the late 1400's to early 1500's. It's not like it couldn't be said both ways. It might have been. Especially if the four letters in acronym form were used. People forget...have fuzzy memories. Either way....it's still not great to be so foul mouthed to be offensive to...

Well the "F" bomb is of British and somewhat Catholic origin. During Henry VIII reign and subsequently after Bloody Mary Elizabeth's reign the Government was in charge of marriage ceremonies. Because the Catholic devoted priests and monks refused to do anything....plus they were tossed out...

Oh we need live births like yesterday. Just to replace the old people who die every year we need 2.1 live births per woman. That's just for static population. But our government and retirement programs rely upon a tax base of a growing population....at a minimum of 2.6-3. We currently...

I've seen several pieces on Constantine... He loved the Sun Worshipping orgies.... And he was baptized shortly before he died so he wouldn't sin afterwards.

From GPS data there are over 70,000 ANTIFA supporters in Chicago now....these are people who engage in Pro Palestinian protests. Chicago is going to be a mess on Tuesday.

There are rumors floating... There might be another coup at the DNC on Teusday....like the one done to Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders and etc. Do not believe in the unity of people who promote moral turpitude. It's a false assumption.

Ummmm Not trying to brag but I am a formally trained and experienced professional fine dining chef. Musta missed that point along the way. But the point I was trying to make is that where many wives can cook proficiently they ain't me. Nor is every meal going to be a gourmet dining...

I'm expecting a Democrat Party Troll to show up any moment in this thread... They have been visiting literally EVERY forum to promote Kamala.

The Church controlled who could and could not learn to read or write. Until the advent of the printing press. Which gave rise to anyone interested in learning to read or write they could now do so using the family Bible. (And most families had one) The Renaissance and bubonic plague had a...

Not what I intended with my reply. What's wrong with you that you accuse everyone of evil? The hand holding only goes as far as learning to accurately read the truncated and compact style of writing and where to go to find accurate resources in order to obtain an originalist viewpoint of...

Ok... Because you do know... Can you please explain the use of a Rosary? I've heard about these things but never their significance or purpose. People act like everyone knows but I literally do not know.

Where I see a lot of opinions that mostly blame people for not studying the scriptures... Plus we have a HUGE number of professing Christians claiming to be teachers...(Which huge volumes of people ignore) The root problem of scriptures is consumability. Meaning people can't consume...

That's not exactly true....your dates are way off. The Geneva Bible for UK and Gutenburg for Germany are the disruptors/ innovators of literacy for the common man. Both of these appeared early/mid 1500's. About the same time chapter and verse numbers were used to break up themes in...

He could be pandering too. It's not like politicians are never guilty of this. It's kinda their specialty.

I have seen rosaries...some nice ones and some that are more souvenirs than expected to be used...I think. I'm not exactly sure what these things are used for. (I'm not catholic) But a string of beads of some sort is an inanimate object and apparently used for some sort of Prayers. At a...

Well, Jesus backhandedly was referring to three things. Targums (Aramaic translation of scriptures with sermons) Sifre (commonly asked questions and answers to the meaning of the Laws) and Midrash (discussions/debates concerning various aspects of the Law which were debatable) All three were...

The cognitive biases and logical fallacies often used to interpret scripture can be bypassed IF YOU WANT TO....but it often requires a friend to help you. Jewish society and culture was extremely regimented far more than your average person assumes based solely on the fact that it was at a...

Hallak is the Jewish term "the walk" where you have a question when reading scriptures....one not readily answered by the scriptures you are reading. And that search for the answers gives rise to more questions....which demands answers. And somewhere along the way some of the questions get...
