    Interesting that the Bible is "the Word of God", unless someone quotes a translation you disagree with.

    No. That’s just one reason. If you think all translations are equal, well, bless your heart.

    Interesting that the Bible is "the Word of God", unless someone quotes a translation you disagree with.

    That’s not the point; the point is the KJV is the worst translation available in English today.

    Interesting that the Bible is "the Word of God", unless someone quotes a translation you disagree with.

    Referring to the Bible as the word of God is an appeal to authority. It is reasonable to scrutinize what the Creator said - properly translated - rather than run with a bad translation. Worse, is people claiming things are in the Bible that aren't. For instance, the KJV references dragons...

    "Christians don't know what they believe." - until they are brainwashed

    This is a very provocative point. OTOH, I agree but OTOH, I disagree. Obviously, the church is not a place of formal scholarship and learning. But many if not most people in Western Civilization throughout history since the invention of the printing press learned by reading the Bible and...

    "Christians don't know what they believe." - until they are brainwashed

    Carriage return spaces between paragraphs are your friend Ronald! ;) Astute observation. I agree. Agreed. He comes across to me as an angry legalist. That does surprise me in some ways. Most times, people who conduct the polls have an agenda. This explains the convoluted wording. LOL If...

    "Christians don't know what they believe." - until they are brainwashed

    You mean like how the Bible says that Jesus died?

    "Christians don't know what they believe." - until they are brainwashed

    I am very comforted by this statistic.

    "Christians don't know what they believe." - until they are brainwashed

    Getting rid of the double negative for you ... 35% of Evangelicals agreed that everyone is born guilty. 45% agreed that the Bible is literally true. 44% reject the idea that God accepts worship from all religions. 57% agreed that Jesus was (just) a good teacher, but God. 43 + 67 + 110%. Your...

    How Feminism Failed Women

    Agreed. Most people today are indoctrinated. As Goethe said, those who falsely believe they are free are the most enslaved.

    Humility Versus Pride

    Great question John. Because there are different senses of words, this could go in any number of different ways. Humility protects us from humiliation. Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it is thinking of yourself less. We should all be humble that God elected us. At the very same time...

    How Feminism Failed Women

    Yea, it has already been said in this thread that todays so-called feminists are actually Cultural Marxists. Big fan of tennis. At US Open they proudly advertise ‘Equal Pay For 50 Years.’ This shows the sexism of this evil ideology. Used to be, they only sought equal pay under the stipulation...

    How Feminism Failed Women

    Not really an answer to my question. Before modern times, marriage wan not about emotion but resources needed to secure the survival of the next generation. What do you suppose to poor men who could not buy a wife? Same as now. Their genes tend not to get passed on.

    How Feminism Failed Women

    According to Dowry: DOWRY (Heb. נְדֻנְיָה), the property a wife brings to her husband at marriage; the Yiddish equivalent, nadn, is from the same root. The custom of nedunyah became clearly defined and institutionalized only in the talmudic period. In biblical times, mohar (מֹהַר), whereby the...

    How Feminism Failed Women

    The price men must pay for feminist glory. Powerful testimony of the ‘glory’ of feminism. The devil glamorizes sin of promiscuous female sex - approved by feminized mothers - as ‘empowering.’ Sin does not over-power, it seduces. These feminists are not ashamed of their sin but proud of it...

    How Feminism Failed Women

    Another bite at this apple… I’m not trash talking but being a woman, being a single mother is not a special class of NON-EQUAL Beings incapable of sin. One does not have to identify as a feminist to still act on feminist ideals. In all humility, single mothers ought to be ashamed that they...
