Emile <<Yes! There are still people who believe the earth is flat and that the sun revolves around the earth. >> Historically it was the church that promoted that view, because they felt anything else didnt reflect well on their beliefs. Probably a poor choice of argument for you...... <<Jesus Christ demonstrate that he was the Lord of Creation by showing us his absolute power over created matter as well as created angelic beings. He raised the dead and also raised himself from death to demonstrate the truthfulness of his claims.>> Emile, that is true if you choose to believe it. If you choose to feel that it is irrefutably proven, god bless you, but I dont. <<Why do you choose to desregard the historical facts and certitudes contained in the Christian Faith>> Most of the world doesnt believe that these are proven historical facts. I have no problem if you choose to believe them. I do have a problem if you attempt to force them on others, or use it as a toll of divisivness. << Is it because your heart is without reasonk, or is it because you have a secret hatred for truth?>> Neither, Emile. I love the truth, and try very hard to use the god given gift of reason. I just think our respective truths are very different. mark
