Good Vs. Evil

Tuesday, March 4, 2003 by joetheblow | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Who wins? Why? Is it really winning if the outcome is already settled?

More on this later.

oops -wrong page - scratch that post above.

"All scripture is God breathed, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God might be mature, thoroughly furnished unto all good works."

In the few places where Paul interjected his personal opinion into the inspired text, as when he spoke of marriage, he invariably inserted the advisory "but this I say by way of permission, and not by commandment." so that the reader knew he was seeing a Pauline opinion.

craeonics wonders what people would abuse to jsutify their actions with had Constantinus (or Constantine for the anglosaxons) not made this christian sect the official state religion for political purposes

craeonics also wonder why people blindly believe in what they are taught, completely disregarding other sources, without even knowing a damn thing

craeonics can't stand religious justification

Actually, a lot of civilisation believed their ruler was a God. The Egyptian Pharoe for example.

About the artifacts, it was a huge commerce in the Middle Ages. The selling and buying of religious artifacts was very common and people spent fortunes upon them. Artifacts included parts of holy objects (such as a piece of the holy cross) or even human remains (such as a piece of bone of a dead Saint). Creepy.

that has always been a part of superstition, myth and mythology really... even for the human beings that were here on this planet LONG before Adam and Eve were the first human beings on earth which had just been created...

crae - there are people who will do their own research, conduct their own tests, examine all sources of input without prejudice, and come out believing the exact opposite of you on a given issue, as impossible and incomprehensible as that sounds. You are not an idiot for arriving at your own conclusions, and neither are they.

craeonics was more referring at the masses that don't

Those that say Solution A is the Ultimate Truth, while they've never tried B or C, let alone D. But, each to his/her own. Until they think they can decide for you that is, like politicians tend to.


craeonics distrusts people that speak of theself in third person

Hey, wait a sec...
