As far as how it applies to me today The Old Testament is about The Law The New Testament is about Grace.

ernokaikkonen 0 #4 December 14, 2002 >since everyone is debating in on other threads... feel free >to vote announomously or not. You forgot "None" I voted on "agnostic", though. I have this one rule I try to follow: "Do the right thing". As many of you will notice, it's from a Spike Lee movie. When I first saw the movie, it just seemed like a good summary of what I believed in anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sundevil777 93 #6 December 14, 2002 But Spike Lee did not do the right thing, he threw that garbage can through the window of a guy who did not deserve it. Then just sat on the curb with the owner of the pizza shop after the riot like he was just a bystander. Does anyone else have an explanation for this, because I really liked the movie and thought he was very creative until the end. Now I just think he is hung up on being part of class victimhood. Where am I wrong?People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zenister 0 #16 December 14, 2002 i believe. in a creator, the divine, something infinitely larger than humanity. I do not claim to understand the nature of it/her/him (gender is irrelevant to divinity) but I would like to know more. The flow of life is to strong, to continually enlightening for me to think otherwise Toward that end I try keep my eyes and mind open to everything and will gladly talk to anyone about their experiences of divinity, but I have serious issues with the majority of religious dogma, particularly that which claims sole authority based on one cultures limited experiences, no matter how well written or devised. Mostly I suppose that fits in as agnostic, but if you really want to know what I believe, you’ll have to open the attachment.

jceman 1 #20 December 15, 2002 Quote I am a Christian and I attend church regularly. Christianity seems to get sliced and diced by just about everyone in this forum on a regular basis. Mostly by people who have never even opened the Bible. That statement has to be by someone who hasn't actually read the posts that "attack" Christians. Many of them were written be people who not only have read the Bible, but have read more than one edition of it, including the original Aramaic/Hebrew texts. As someone has mentioned in the threads about sexuality, I believe that those who protest about the "attacks" do so because they don't understand what is being written and/or are insecure about their faith. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kmcguffee 0 #21 December 15, 2002 Well Jack, I have read the posts that slice and dice Christianity. I never said anything about "attacking" Christians. Slicing and dicing is slang for analyzing but there are plenty of attacks too. Now who is being "insecure"? I'm sure we have many Aramaic/Hebrew scholars on this forum. Maybe two at most.

lewmonst 0 #22 December 15, 2002 nice way of putting it, zenister. as for me...i believe in good people, and i call myself atheist. i believe in something far more amazing, but i can't explain or name it. i do believe in karma. I believe if you do good and treat others fairly, than life will be good to you. but I strongly support everyone right to their own opinions and conclusions, given reasonable thought. That is, I respect everyone who has faith in whatever they choose, as long as they thought for themself to come to those beliefs. I do not respect those who just take on a religion like a heriditary trait, for which they have no other options. think for yourself, and I will highly respect you, like one of my 7th graders who believes in cows. http://www.exitshot.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Antithesis 0 #24 December 15, 2002 I was brought up catholic but I have since recovered. I spent a long part of my life trying to find a religion that explains it all the way I can believe it. I only found that I'm far too critical for the explanations out there. So I have simplified myself to principles that I can live my life by. If there is a higher power watching over us I believe that it will understand my logic. I travel the land, Work in the ocean, Play in the sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
