"Not strange at all; the Markoffs do just as the KKK and Israelis (to name a few), and subordinate reason to dogma, a la Schofield in their particular case"

Sometimes you startle me with your understanding of the facts, but you always disappoint me with your inability to grasp the essence and spiritual reality of the Christian message in the Cross of Christ.
You are right about the Markoffs. It is the Baptist indoctrination from Scofield's notes that has shaped their beliefs at least as much as Zionist ideology. The Baptist and others have poisoned several generations with the theological nonsense of Scofield's notes.(I was raised Baptist.)

Coming back to your reasoning, I would like to point out that reason will only take you to the door of reality, but reality based faith will let you enter into things your reason cannot see and experience.

ps---Your support for freedom of speech on this thread was a stark contrast to those who hate the 1st. Amendment.
