    Does being Christian equate to elitism today?

    How is it not contradiction, matthew and luke give not just differing but opposite accounts, different events entirely, different genealogies, etc * One says wise men came, one says shepherds. * Only matthew mentions the star in the east. * Only luke mentions the angels singing. * Only...

    Does being Christian equate to elitism today?

    I say that it is possible. The bible is not the full account of god or even Jesus. Can you account for every year of Jesus' life in the bible? No. Many are missing. Many more are missing from God's eternal existence. Can you even being to claim to know everything there is to know about God? All...

    Does being Christian equate to elitism today?

    I think one's actions and words should be diplomatic and an example unto others as an extension and example of their faith. Calling someone else's beliefs "new age horse crap" is winning no one any points with anyone. Surely brother there was a more diplomatic way to say that you disagree with...

    Does being Christian equate to elitism today?

    The list could be added to but is a good example. I have seen great dispute between Yahshua, Yahushua and Yeshua the actual pronunciation is a source of great debate and argument among scholars. To me though I feel Yahshua is how it translates but accept all as reasonable possibilities since we...

    Does being Christian equate to elitism today?

    The list is not definitive by any means and there are more but the list does demonstrate a point. Feel free to research this but Jesus isnt the correct name. Its Yahshua. There is no J in hebrew. Another error of man is the translation of the saviour's name. It was translated from Yahshua...

    What else do women find attractive?

    I live in a sizeable metro area that is indeed wealthy. It is comprised of many professionals and business owners and there are quite a few mill workers as this is a prime paper mill area with more than a dozen mills. I do believe the average wage is nearly 60k according to statistics however...

    Does being Christian equate to elitism today?

    That is your interpretation brother but it is fact. The accounts of the apostles differ. Read and see for yourself, I do not need to tell you what you can read and decide for yourself in regards to both apostle's accounts of the birth. God gave us free will, to force man against his will would...

    Does being Christian equate to elitism today?

    You are judging me brother. You are saying over and over I am believing wrongly and that my soul may be in danger. I would call that judging brother. If you see fire where there is none and you repeatedly throw water on it, is it being helpful or harmful? You are judging me to be in danger...

    Does being Christian equate to elitism today?

    I am not saying all religions are 100% correct in all ways. One or another may have things wrong? But do you know for fact what parts are and in what religions? No. The bible even contradicts itself in the accounts of Jesus' birth. Matthew and luke have differing accounts. This is not Gods fault...

    Does being Christian equate to elitism today?

    Forgive me brother if I misunderstood your post but it came off as being hostile to me. I am in deception in what manner? I believe the bible and live it, I believe in the lord and his teachings. You are not god nor jesus, how can you judge me to know if I am in deception or need to be put in...

    Does being Christian equate to elitism today?

    It is not a complete 180 from what I believe, they simply do not make it exclusive by stating a christian belief which I feel is key to fostering harmony and love among all peoples and faiths. Like it or not, we are to love our neighbor and we must share the world with all people. A person's...

    Does being Christian equate to elitism today?

    This doesnt mean that I do not believe it, of course. If they said that Jesus is the only way to heaven, it wouldnt be multi-faith. UU is supposed to foster harmony between all peoples and faiths regardless of their differences. I believe the message of UU is a pure and noble one and I have...

    What I define as luxury items may differ from another person's idea of luxury items. I was speaking in generalities when doing so one must speak for the majority. As it is, the majority here are about material things, I happen to live in a very material place. In my age group and locality...

    Christian Tolerance?

    :thumbsup Good post. Non-violence or lack thereof is a human issue in all religious backgrounds. All religions have issues with violent groups even buddhists. I believe in One God. That is not to say that there arent multiple views from multiple nations on that one god. For example the jewish...

    Does being Christian equate to elitism today?

    Yes. Without getting very complex here, the churches have completely distorted the bible to reflect their goals. In the bible the 10% is to be given to the Levites to support them. Are there Levites among the church? No. And there are actually three tithes mentioned in the bible equating to...

    Movies every Christian should watch.

    Nobody mentioned Jesus Christ Superstar? Andrew Lloyd Weber version being preferable, IMO. But either version is good.

    UFO encounter

    Then both of our figures are meaningless, correct? But how does this discount anything Ive said other than the planetary figures and how does any of that either prove or disprove intelligent life elsewhere? The possibility still remains that there may be intelligent life out there period. This...
