Isaiah 9:6-7
6) For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the
government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of
Peace. 7) Of the greatness of his government and peace there will
be no end. He will reign on Davids throne and over his kingdom,
establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from
that time on and forever. The zeal of the LORD Almighty will
accomplish this..


I'm familiar with the bible. As I have said here many times, the KJ
version is remarkable literature, beautifully written. The Jewish
passage you cited, however, is not, according to my Jewish friends, a
prophesy of your Jesus.

Perhaps this cite will help you understand why the prophesies were not
fulfilled by your Jesus:

You, of course, may believe whatever you wish. In any event, have a
great day with your family and friends...to me, that is the important
element of Christmas.

Oh I have and I shall. I wish you could too

Well of course, they'd discount the idea of a Messiah. They're still
waiting, and waiting, and waiting...

This explains why Harry chooses to be secular. Aparently he is in
* company with half the Jews.


No, ****-for-brains, I'm a non-believer because I don't believe in fairy
tales and, in the case of organized religion, all the horrors committed
in its name, and, especially, all the little children dying of disease,
hunger, and in war.


In the evolution of mankind that resulted in cognizant thinking and the
species Homo Sapiens or "Wise Man" what instilled the concept of right
and wrong or good and bad? Scientist are still studying and discovering
more about time frames and possible reasons but nobody knows for sure.
Some think diet ... others think climate. Some think (as recently as in
the 1970's) that it happened about 40,000 years ago. Newer discoveries
push it back to 150,000 to 200,000 years ago.

In any event the evolution from being an instinct driven, pre-human to a
thinking, reasoning and questioning species, unique to this planet (as
best we know) happened fairly quickly in the overall time frame of
known scientific history. The concept of a supreme being .. a "God" or
Gods may well have been the influencing factor. BTW ... some believe it
came from alien visitors from another galaxy that early thinking man
confused with being a "God".
