you know, that does make me wonder though LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 03/10/2011 04:58:21 PM
Say, in theory, that God really did speak to some individual and send him about Propheting, despite what the Bible says.

How would you go about accepting their teachings, given that they'd be opposing what the Bible says? Would you be able to, even if they were 100% God Prophet?

How do you see such a situation playing out? It seems that Christian's have gotten so tied up in what they are that they're incapable of accepting any change to their basic creeds, even if God Himself changed it.

I understand what both you and Danny are saying LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 12:19:57 AM 915 Views
Oh, that's very simple Tom - 04/10/2011 04:02:24 AM 925 Views
I honestly don't know what it would take. Dannymac - 04/10/2011 07:41:55 AM 943 Views
thank you, both of you LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 01:46:05 PM 928 Views

Yikes. Even for religion, that's more than a little crazy. Nate - 04/10/2011 03:47:56 PM 984 Views
I don't think there's much of a difference in crazy as opposed to other more mainstream religions. Vivien - 04/10/2011 07:08:06 PM 962 Views
A difference exists if only in continued unabashed affirmation of a rather distasteful doctrine. Joel - 04/10/2011 11:06:51 PM 957 Views
Then why can't women be priests? Or enter the altar? The curse on Eve is very much in place. *NM* Aeryn - 05/10/2011 12:27:04 AM 524 Views
