"no doubt he venerates".... You know on this topic it occurs to me, why would there even BE a "New and Everlasting Covenant" proclaimed, and all the fuss over this guy if he was just 'venerating' some old texts??? Clearly there was supposed to be a LOT that was new IMHO. bwtfdik. DAK

"accepting the OT 'except where contradicted by Jesus' is Catholic dogma as far as I know" How on earth do YOU know what contradicts what Jesus says or believes when YOU are the one deciding what is and isn't Divine and Holy in the bible? We go from a poster who tried to defend every word of a brutal mythology as "Divine", to a poster who capriciously uses parts of that mythology to credit or discredit other parts of it? "All I know is he couldn't possibly have thought the whole thing was divine because why the hell would he bother teaching so differently???" If the bible is NOT Divine then how do YOU know what He taught? Give me 7 days and I will write a 200 page book on the teachings of Jesus. Will that make it Divine? "LOL, people get so literal with this stuff." That is because if it is not ALL the Inspired and Holy words of God/Jesus then all Christian belief is capricious and self serving. I don't know on what basis you are cherry picking the bible if you are not a Christian? The bible is either primitive mythology or the inerrant word of the Supreme Creator. WHICH...do you think??
