"You certainly get upset when your character is questioned but the creator of the universe is fair game." Yes..because I am a real person. If the creator of the universe wants to get upset, She can. What will She do? Kill everybody! ;-) "Jesus is not a pedophile" There was no Jesus as you mean to tell it. And pederasty was not uncommon in the Roman Empire. The question of Jesus's homosexuality is a legitimate one which has been argued by scholars and Bishops. So don't pretend otherwise. "I guess yor way beyond morality, it being a myth and all." Mythology is replete with sexual stories and situations. It doesn't matter to me how many women Zeus banged and it doesn't matter to me whether or not Jesus had sex or who He had it with. If the bible was our guide to morality we would all be living like primitive people and there would still be slavery and women would have nothing to say about anything. "It is/was obvious that you don't an Ass from a colt on the ground" The apologists like to argue whether the "colt" was or wasn't an ass. But as to their own nature they leave no doubt. In case you still do not get it...it is not relevant whether the colt was an ass or a pony! The point was that it was the property of another and that Jesus stole it! Would you prefer I call Him an Ass Thief instead of a Horse Thief?! LOL!
