    I don't know if your rage is that well-placed, Bill. One poster starts a silly thread, most everyone else rips on it, and you swoop in as if the whole forum agreed with their post. Most of the posts criticized or ridiculed it.

    Grow up Bill. The majority always gets screwed in these things. That's the price they pay for being the majority. You know this.
    When was the last time someone complained about all black colleges as opposed to all white ones?

    Seriously. And why is part of the religious beliefs that they have to control the media? Bogus, I tell you.

    Re: Evangelicals: Jesus will literally float back down to earth from the sky

    So you're saying that Evangelicals don't believe in the Rapture?
    Start one and we'll see.
    I fail to see how any skeptical discussion of Christian dogma is automatically "bigotry". Believers should be able to defend their beliefs regardless of how rational or irrational they seem to outsiders. (This is one of the things that's most infurating about Scientology -- they're so afraid of outsiders knowing what the religion is based on that they've kept all "sacred texts" under copyright.) If you're a believer in The Rapture and feel personally offended when a non-believer brings it up, then maybe it's time to re-evaluate what your beliefs really are.
    You'll be missed.

    Re: Evangelicals: Jesus will literally float back down to earth from the sky

    Yes, but John (if it was indeed him) wrote fantastic stuff about Jesus which makes floating down to earth pale by comparison. If he was capable of doing all those other things, like turning water to wine, resurrecting a dead man, predicting where the fish would bite, and even managing to keep some religious nuts from stoning a prostitute, then surely floating down to earth wouldn't be too tough a trick for him.

    It is like saying that Maradona couldn't have scored on an empty goal from one foot away. Maybe it hasn't been written by eye-witnesses that he could. But if he could get the ball at midfield and dribble past the entire English defense making them look like fools while scoring, (which has been recorded by eyewitnesses), then surely he could also score on an empty goal from one foot away.

    Re: Sunni Muslims Believe Mohammed Rode a Horse to Heaven!!!!!!

    Bill:

    Inasmuch as I am not much of a supporter of the Muslim religion, I would not criticize it as a Christian, as I don't believe you would appreciate them criticizing our religion! All religions have historical parts which beg rationalization and thus must rely on faith; I am sure their "white stallion" part begs credibility inasmuch as our "noah's ark" part. Both are part and parcel of faith: your criticism does not help either.

    Re: Evangelicals: Jesus will literally float back down to earth from the sky

    All religions are cults.

    Drink the blood of Christ, eat his flesh. Adam and Eve never had a daughter. What do I care? Single out Christianity? Hell no, though I'd like to invoke Jerry Falwell asking me to help prop up Apartheid in the 80s, or that James Watt didn't care to protect the environment because the rapture was on its way.
    But if there's an award to any religion that has completely come unhinged, its got to be Islam. Kuh-razy, there folks. Women in bee hive suits. I can stop there.

    And Jews might be advised that pork and shellfish, are mmm, good.

    Re: Evangelicals: Jesus will literally float back down to earth from the sky

    What you write is true -- heck, all of the Gospels have Jesus doing some pretty damn neat stuff that defies science -- but just because he could doesn't mean that he did. If Jesus was God's Son on earth, he could have invented the light bulb, but he didn't. And, considering that the basis for the Rapture is Jesus' proclamation in front of the remaining Apostles right before the Ascension that he would return, it's not unreasonable to think that the one Gospel writer who actually saw Jesus' teachings and actions first-hand would have thought enough of the event to record it for posterity. How often did someone living 2,000 years ago get to watch someone else levitate to heaven? Wouldn't that have stuck in your mind when telling the story of that man? After the Resurrection itself, I'd think that would be #2 on the list of amazing feats that you'd want to write about.

    Re: The Jews: What's Up With Them Anyway?

    I am surprised Archer didn't take a shot at circumcision. I wonder who was the first of the 'chosen people' who came up with such an idea. All I know is, he must have been a super-salesman, to be able to convince the Jewish leadership that cutting it was the best way to diferenciate themselves from the gentiles

    :D
