What happened to Brightstar? Did he give up the ship and turn it over to Santiago?
Now I hope Brightstar is okay and that you'll be able to take the helm of the ship safely to shore.
Remember Monday and the work that should be done, for in seven days, Monday will be upon you again.

James the mind of Christ has nothing to do with Faith or Jesus. Again, no proof until God reveals to James will you know. James the old testament was written the same time as the new. The old testament was a rewriting of myth combined with some history and some truth. If you live a thousand lives you will never be able to make the bible God's word. Or even God's inspired word. It has never been, nor will it be, clearly understood and will continue to cause strife.

We all have been brainwashed to trust faith and that very thing prevents us seeking truth on its own merits. God gave us mind or the power to reason. Reasoning with true facts
instead of our desires will prove more favorable then faith.

In ancient times myth & drama were used to communicate and I'm sure all know of Aesop's Fables. These are used today to teach young children morals. Well myth & drama were used to teach the uneducated in the same way. Personally I had rather my children read the fables than the bible.
