Steve,
You seem to have difficulty speaking to the specifics of my questions. So far, you have merely cast disparaging remarks toward the Jews and Catholics.
I'm intriqued as to just which church has this thing correct since a quick perusal of our local yellow pages indicates well in excess of 100 different "types" of churches. Would you be so kind as to tell me which one it is.
For something so important, why such confusion among the flock? You have already stated that "ignorance is bliss" so I wonder what this "being re-born" is all about.
Still waiting also for an answer to the question as to why the bible has to be constantly revised and edited.
I'm also intrigued that the Right Wing Christian Fundamentalist have to be led each day by individuals such as the following:
1) Pat Robertson..father of illegitimate child and advocate of dooms day prophesy, but still goes ahead and collects millions of dollars from his flock to build multi-million dollar home.
2) Oliver North...convicted felon but now rich off the backs of "true believers".
3) E. Gordon Liddy..convicted felon and individual that brags about his numerous affairs, but his flock of true believers thinks he is a god sent messenger for morals.
4) Rush Limbaugh...poster boy of broken marriage vows that requires a main-frame computer to keep up with. And the true believers can merely say..."ditto, Rush".
5) Dr. Laura Schlessenger(sp)..The latest leader of the flock who has the audacity to write a current book on the Ten Commandments all the while being estranged from her own family and has an illicit sexual affair history resulting in one of her lovers giving her the nickname..KLU KLUX, because she is she a devil between the sheets.(:>)

Steve, care to answer why so many unsavory characters have to be the moral compass for the Christian Coalition?
