No, I am not a theologian, but I did have as a college roommate for an

academic year a fellow who got his master's at Union Theological

Seminary, and was ordained an Episcopal priest. He got me to go to

Sunday Episcopal services on campus because, he claimed, they served the

best Sunday student breakfast and had the best-looking coeds at their

services. He was right on both counts.

Of course there would be an alternate motive for going.


He and I argued some on issues religious. We're still close friends.



I have an M.A. in English, and my concentration was in etymology. As for

your interpretations, you're just proving my point, that biblical

interpretation is in the mind of the beholder. There's nothing wrong or

intellectually dishonest about that, as long as one admits it.



I'm glad you told me. THANKS! But, you don't believe in the book anyhow. so why make a big deal out of it? I mean, why are you trying to interpret something something you don't believe in anyhow?


That's my question for atheists. Why fight so hard against something that you firmly believe is
non-existent?

Why not fight against flying pigs?


It isn't about the flying pigs, it is about those who worship flying
pigs. Most people believe there are no flying pigs, so they don't
create thousands of flying pig denominations so that they can force
and or coerce their particular flying pig beliefs on others.

Odd how one makes perfect sense to you, while the other seems totally
ridiculous.

There are laws which prohibit the use of force to cram religion down your throat. What difference
should it make to you or any other stupid liberal what folks wish to worship? Some folks worship
rocks. Where are all the anti-rock people?

Sounds like you've got your spoofer head buried with the lil' Squirts head. Must be getting tight in
there.
