Christine <<Mark, of course God would want everyone to be able to relate to her in the way that is most optimal. However, I believe there is general agreement that God did not live on earth in ancient, tribal Israel. Jesus did. >> Are you saying that you dont believe that Jesus is the son of God? I dont care either way, you know I believe your are entitled to your belief system, whatever it is. Just curious. Mark

I probably shouldn't, but I rather miss you in a contextual sort of way..... <<I am absolutely positive Jesus would be abhorred by all the hate that is spewed in his name, at Jews and people of color. I just am very curious as to whether these people are pretending he was a white guy with blue eyes and blonde hair.>> They may very well be, but what difference does it make. It is very reasonable to assume that Jesus was the color of skin of whatever the natural color was (and probably still is of the peoples of the region for the most part) of the peoples of that time period. As I understand it, there is no heirarchy of sin sort of speak, meaning one being less or worse than another. So therefore, racism wouldn't be any worse than whore mongering, murder, idolotry, abortion, or that other thing that I now regret ever putting forth for a topic of what never amounted to an actual discussion minus emotional head butting. Hope you're well,
