Re: Yep, I ment Timothy Isaac Send a noteboard - 15/02/2013 11:03:16 AM
Maybe I didn't express myself well.


I confess to being confused as to your point, it seemed as though you were saying that Timothy wasn't in most protestant bibles

Books have been deleted and returned to the Bible on multiple occasions. Timothy is just my favorite example because it has some of the most "women should be barefoot and pregnant" statements and is often removed or carefully ignored by more progressive variations of Christianity & Luther is perhaps the best know of biblical editors/reformers.


I'm guessing you're referring to 1 Timothy 2:12 "I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet." (NIV)

Obviously that's a controversial one. I'm not aware of it having ever been left out either, but certainly alternate translations are common enough. I'm unclear on what you feel protestant versions are leaving out here or have left out, if you could be a bit more specific.
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.

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 774 Views
Why wouldn't it still be devinely inspired? Jeordam - 13/02/2013 06:44:07 PM 693 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 661 Views
You're missing a really key point Jeordam - 13/02/2013 09:13:32 PM 719 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

So Roman Catholic priests CAN marry, under tortuous conditions? Interesting.... Joel - 13/02/2013 03:40:48 PM 589 Views
A priest can't marry, but a married person can become a priest. HyogaRott - 13/02/2013 03:51:02 PM 628 Views
Heh, yeah, I guess I slightly mischaracterized what you were saying. Joel - 13/02/2013 05:54:05 PM 720 Views
There are a bunch of semi-Catholic denominations that allow priests to marry. Legolas - 13/02/2013 06:06:13 PM 640 Views
That makes more sense. Joel - 13/02/2013 06:23:36 PM 712 Views

Unfortunately it matters due to the power he has... Wibble - 11/02/2013 04:42:25 PM 755 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 732 Views
Hah, are you kidding? beetnemesis - 13/02/2013 02:20:54 PM 795 Views

Of course they don't have to teach people how to use condoms. Legolas - 17/02/2013 10:46:38 AM 637 Views
You're showing some glaring bias and hostility here Isaac - 12/02/2013 01:58:17 PM 621 Views
No, you are giving them far too little. Joel - 13/02/2013 03:33:03 PM 640 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 718 Views
