Last time I checked, roughtly equal numbers of men and women
enter the world...and it has been this way since the beginning.God created one man, Adam, and one woman Eve. The standard
for human coupling. The fact that so much discussion should ensue over a subject
like poligamy is an ongoing testimony to the enduring sinful
stupidity of mankind. This ought to be a settled issue: One man for one women. Period. |

Reminds me of the Pharasees Jesus spoke of on the Sermon on the Mount
(Matt 5,6,7) who did all kinds of "holy works", just to be seen by men.Now, if these folk flagellated themselves in private, telling NO ONE,
and hiding the effects that they had done all this to themselves;
Then I might give them some kind of additional consideration for their
(deeds?), But not much. If you want to "do something", FASTING is much less dangerous, and is
at least mentioned with some favor in the Sermon on the Mount, as well
as rules on how to go about such activities. During the Iranian hostage crisis of 1979 I remember
news camera footage of muslims flogging themselves as they
walked down the street in plain view of others during one
of their holidays. At the time I never realized that some who call themselves
"Christians" would try the same stupid thing, in light of
Matt 5,6,7. |

John, must a created thing be spatially limited? I'll have to think about that. I'll have to think about it too, since your comment reminds me that I had
not considered the vast spirit-world (angels, Satan, etc.), which are also
created by God, when I made my previous comment.It's fun to know that you and I definitely have some similar interests,
(history, war, technology). I can tell you're at least as informed on
these subjects as I am, which is also fun because I can learn more while
sharing what I can. I too was led to believe that the Nazi regime was some kind of "right-wing"
capitalist orgainization in every respect--mostly by those needing some
kind of negative contrast to promote their own liberal ideas, I suppose. |

What can we learn about Ferdinand Porsche by examining a VW Beetle? Ferdinand Porsche also designed a prototype of the much-feared German
tiger tank of World War II...in addition to the VW Beetle. A contrast
reflected by the image (in this case, Porsche) of his creator, God.The heavens, being limited (having been created--Gen 1 & 2) never-
the-less have yet to come even close to being plumbed by modern man. The creation is NOT revelation in any articulated sense (which I think
Neil pointed out) , but is rather a blessed and provided means of
APPREHENSION of That which cannot be comprehended: God, the One who MADE the universe. If that which is created (universe) is yet beyond our human ability
to fully grasp, then how much more is the One who created it? The more we examine the universe the bigger we realize that it really
is. History of our exploration of the universe shows this. |

There doth his credibility end. His religion may have roots in what he
calls "reality", but its inspiration
came from sorcery (pharmachia?), i.e.
smoking POT. |
