From a possibly old, but funny and new to me, email forward..which is all soapbox is good for these days.

I thought that was pretty funny when it came out. The only thing is that Jesus absolved the old testament rules and replaced them in the new testament. Its hard to decide which of these things was meant to be left and which was replaced with the Golden Rule (for Christians, anyhow, Jews have no out for it)It raises some good points though about the selectiveness of people's discomfort with things that break Biblical codes.

Serial. I like smiting. Not only is it a cool action, but the word is also cool.

need some help real quick...where in the New Testament does it say that Jesus is the only son/avatar/incarnation of God?
10/2/2006 12:00:22 PM
well probably the most well known verse:"for god so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, and whosoever shall believeth in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life."john 3:16. i'm sure there's others, but i don't believe in fairy tales enough to actually study them.[Edited on October 2, 2006 at 12:04 PM.

Ah, but it still doesn't say there wouldn't be others since then?
10/2/2006 12:18:20 PM
if you believe that is the word of god and that there are no others (as most christians do), then that would be the only one.but yeah i'm sure this fairy tale could be much more expansive.

Well, NC sure owned some Canadians earlier this year

^ Nothing more entertaining than watching a bunch of folks from an American state that barely gets any snow each year beat Canadians in one of the few sports where they supposedly are top of the world.Or as my sister once put it to her Canadian roommate swearing up a storm about the playoffs, "We have a hockey team?"

Fixed the cowhide thing. As far as the Commonwealth... eh, same thing.

hey look. A fundamentalist christian uses sarcasm to deflect legitimate points brought up in his sacred book which are all but ignored in the modern world. how cute.
10/2/2006 2:05:50 PM
the real question is,why would you want to?Canada Sucks.
