The amazing thing about TFP is how I find myself in complete agreement with some posters in some threads and complete disagreement in others.
Jorgelito has had some very good posts, in my opinion, in this thread. Willravel has not, in my opinion.
Willravel, first you write about your complete ease at taking a personal belief of christianity apart by asking simple questions, then you equate true christianity to Fred Phelps. What the hell are you smoking? It's great that you can debate the religion with your dad. I'm sorry the rest of us don't measure up to your high standard of learning. Your knowledge of the word shibboleth astounds me. I didn't know what that word meant until I was oh, 17 or so. 20 years ago. My shibboleth is intelligentsia.
Most of what I know about christianity came from studying with old testament scholars, interpreting what was meant by most of the law. Do you know the law? Tell me about it, Mr. Smartybuckets.
