    Alternatives to the crucifixion story

    ************* M*W: I have a question. It is my understanding that the Romans crushed Jerusalem in 70 AD or so, and the Jews scattered about. My question is in regard to the Book of Mark. I think it's odd that the NT was penned and compiled at the same time or a bit later following the...

    Satan and Saturn.

    ************* M*W: Hello to All! Haven't been here in a while, but I'd like to comment on your post. I have never heard an association between Saturn and Satan. I study the astro-theological view of the solar system. My beliefs are that the Sun (a star) represents God the Father, creator of all...

    Mark 9

    ************* M*W: It is false. How could Jesus say something some 40 years after he was crucified, 2) It's not possible, 3) He was never crucified, 4) Mark was not the author of Mark, 5) Jesus never existed.

    Can you name a modern or even ancient tribe that do not have fashion?

    M*W: Well, obviously, you're reading the sports page. Try looking through the society pages of the local Inuit newspaper. The local blubbery snubbery wear less seal fat in the hopes of finding a male who still has his penis.

    Virgin birth

    ************* M*W: First, let's assume for just a moment, the Virgin Mary, Jesus, Matthew and Luke, et al., were real people. They didn't live at the same time or place. Jesus was never in the presence of the Apostles, and the stories about them were created long after Jesus was gone. There is...

    Is Christianity a Great religion?

    M*W: Here's my list of xian atrocities. It is not complete: -The dominion over and subjegation of women (the first slaves) -The Inquisition called for death to women, children, witches, midwives, and other innocents -Violence against women and children -Male-dominated writing and...

    Lilith

    [/U][/B] Back in 2003 we had a discussion about Lilith: http://www.sciforums.com/showthread.php?27432-Who-was-Lilith In follow-up to the latest inquiry, I believe that Lilith does appear in the Torah. However, the theory about Lilith disappearing from the ancient texts was not necessarily...

    Do you think Mormons are true Christians?

    ************* M*W: Expanding on your question, what is a 'true christian?' I doubt that card carrying christians are 'true christians.' What is the purpose of the original christian religion (assuming it was the 'true christianity' that branched off into thousands of denominations and sects)...

    Aren't you scared?

    ************* M*W: If something doesn't exist, then it can't scare you or kill you. All religions are man-made as are all gods. They are just fig newtons of the imagination. Atheists don't waste their time, or their minds, on such nonsense. Name one atheist that was killed by a ghost...

    Do you think Mormons are true Christians?

    ************* M*W: I tend to think that christianity[/I]came out of Egypt [I] earlier than we've been led to believe. Egyptian symbolism preceded Christian symbolism, and the Catholic Church still uses many Egyptian symbols today. The theme of the Madonna and Child was taken from the Egyptian...

    How many wives does Jesus allow?

    ************* M*W: I think having many wives was a part of the culture at that time. I have read where Abraham married his half-sister Sarah, an Egyptian princess. Many wives were accepted in Egyptian culture. Abraham was said to have had built for them. Abraham was said to have taken other...

    Any atheists here who were once believers?

    ************ M*W: While your theory could be true, I don't see the need for a god to be a part of it. We are quite capable of doing this ourselves.

    Will Religion or god(s) be the down fall of Humanity ?

    ************* M*W: Not so. The beginning of wisdom comes when one gets rid of all the man-made gods and religions and becomes his own higher power. (PS: All gods and religions are man-made and oppressive).

    Will Religion or god(s) be the down fall of Humanity ?

    ************* M*W: Why must there be a downfall for Humanity? I don't think religion or gods will be the cause of a downfall. If anything, religion and gods are experiencing their own downfall. The deteriorization of Humanity will probably arise from man's inhumanity to man.

    the enigmatic personages of the Bible

    the enigmatic personages of the Bible Isaiah 34:14 Wildcats and hyenas will meet there; and billy-goats call to each other; Lilit [the night monster] will lurk there and find herself a place to rest. http://www.biblestudytools.com/isaia...4-compare.html I didn't find the Bible quote...
