Hate to jump you again but are you sure you mean Timothy? Isaac Send a noteboard - 14/02/2013 11:54:00 PM
Well, we are going to disagree. However, I will offer you a challenge. Go to your bookshelf and grab your copy and look for Timmothys. There is about a 75% chance you won't find it in your bible because Luther decided that 7 biblical "books" should be removed, and most of the prodestant religions use his version of the bible. Not many of the flavors of Christianity actually us the original bible. It has been often changed over the years. Heck even the 10 comandments have been edited.


Martin Luther removed some books, all old testament, Judith, Tobit, Wisdom, Baruch, Sirach, and both Maccabees, plus some of Esther and Daniel. Timothy is in every version I own which are all the major ones common in the US - NIV, KJV, NASB, NLT, etc. that I'm pretty sure account for 90%+ of protestant bibles in the states

That is what I get for only having decaf coffee this morning... HyogaRott - 13/02/2013 05:43:57 PM 716 Views
I'm gonna have to disagree with you on this point. Jeordam - 13/02/2013 06:36:03 PM 552 Views

If "the bible is still the bible," then what of Deborah, Huldah and Phoebe, to name but a few? Joel - 13/02/2013 06:17:44 PM 775 Views
Why wouldn't it still be devinely inspired? Jeordam - 13/02/2013 06:44:07 PM 694 Views
Um, because then God was lying when He inspired someone to write "this is not Gods commandment." Joel - 13/02/2013 07:42:15 PM 662 Views
You're missing a really key point Jeordam - 13/02/2013 09:13:32 PM 720 Views
You are using an epistle to say every word of all epistles is divinely inspired? Joel - 13/02/2013 10:00:36 PM 846 Views
Let us take it full circle: The ecclesiastical authority of women Joel - 13/02/2013 10:21:26 PM 736 Views
Shouldn't you be able to answer this question from what you just wrote? Jeordam - 13/02/2013 11:02:28 PM 730 Views
Oh, certainly; I just felt like I was dragging you with me kicking and screaming. Joel - 14/02/2013 01:05:14 AM 702 Views
So Roman Catholic priests CAN marry, under tortuous conditions? Interesting.... Joel - 13/02/2013 03:40:48 PM 590 Views
A priest can't marry, but a married person can become a priest. HyogaRott - 13/02/2013 03:51:02 PM 629 Views
Heh, yeah, I guess I slightly mischaracterized what you were saying. Joel - 13/02/2013 05:54:05 PM 721 Views
There are a bunch of semi-Catholic denominations that allow priests to marry. Legolas - 13/02/2013 06:06:13 PM 641 Views
That makes more sense. Joel - 13/02/2013 06:23:36 PM 713 Views
Here's my chance. I'm putting in my application. Palatine - 11/02/2013 04:20:52 PM 816 Views
Unfortunately it matters due to the power he has... Wibble - 11/02/2013 04:42:25 PM 757 Views
Religions don't work that way. They are full of moral absolutes. There is no flexibility *NM* Dark Knight - 11/02/2013 06:10:19 PM 362 Views
Of course there is flexibility. The minute their money is threatened they flex like mad... *NM* Wibble - 11/02/2013 06:25:02 PM 360 Views
I'd imagine Unitarians and several other religions would beg to differ Isaac - 11/02/2013 09:28:39 PM 733 Views
Hah, are you kidding? beetnemesis - 13/02/2013 02:20:54 PM 797 Views
You would like the Roman Catholic Church to do some good FOR ONCE?! Joel - 11/02/2013 08:00:26 PM 827 Views
Well said. *NM* Ghavrel - 11/02/2013 10:55:18 PM 390 Views

Put on blinders much? HyogaRott - 11/02/2013 11:50:01 PM 712 Views

You really don't know how human psychology works, do you? Legolas - 13/02/2013 06:28:23 PM 674 Views
..and you don't get that it isn't what people will/may do, but what they should. HyogaRott - 15/02/2013 04:22:26 AM 872 Views
It's not religion, it's HIV or no HIV. Legolas - 15/02/2013 10:45:52 PM 653 Views
it's not HIV or no HIV, it is about what people should do. HyogaRott - 16/02/2013 07:02:36 PM 700 Views
Of course they don't have to teach people how to use condoms. Legolas - 17/02/2013 10:46:38 AM 638 Views
You're showing some glaring bias and hostility here Isaac - 12/02/2013 01:58:17 PM 622 Views
No, you are giving them far too little. Joel - 13/02/2013 03:33:03 PM 641 Views
The catholic church is significantly growing in Africa and with Hispanics. *NM* Anonymous2000 - 12/02/2013 03:41:54 AM 429 Views

Oops, I meant to reply here - As a catholic.....my take. Anonymous2000 - 12/02/2013 03:39:42 AM 752 Views
I'd say the chances are about as good... Dragonsoul - 12/02/2013 03:48:29 PM 843 Views
So teh chances are excellent then! Good to know. Wibble - 12/02/2013 04:51:43 PM 676 Views
I doubt there's much of a chance of a real progressive. Stephen - 12/02/2013 06:38:14 PM 643 Views
IDK, two straight non-Italians? Will they put up with a 3rd? Has that even happened since Avignon? Cannoli - 13/02/2013 01:46:28 AM 719 Views
Who says Benedict/Ratzinger is straight? Roland00 - 13/02/2013 04:56:52 AM 630 Views
Don't think so, but the Italians will have to get used to it. Legolas - 13/02/2013 06:34:24 PM 632 Views
This will be a very interesting time. Dannymac - 13/02/2013 06:27:41 PM 755 Views
He's retiring into a monastery in the Vatican, as I understand it. Legolas - 13/02/2013 06:42:14 PM 748 Views
Now this would be interesting.... Jeordam - 13/02/2013 06:51:40 PM 712 Views
Right now I would settle for making up lost ground... Dannymac - 14/02/2013 05:02:38 AM 619 Views
