    It's another no brainer, lol. 🙄
    The accounts of the birth of Jesus are of two different times, one at the time of the birth and the other at sometime after the birth, possibly as much as two years after. That should be simple enough for anyone to see.

    I once wore a crucifix to school accidentally. When the teacher saw it she shreeked loudly and begin to convulse. I was then sent to the principles office and sent home. 😛

    edit: btw: What do you consider the bible? Which one are we talking about?[/b]
    In some cases it is the interpritation (sp) of the bible that comes up with different literary forms. But in some cases (i.e. J. W.'s, and some Methodist's and others) it is what suites thier church, as to how the bible is written.

    You are right, and i can understand the Atheists with all thier questions.

    Belief in God takes faith.

    Understanding God in the basic form may or maynot come from reading scripture. Understanding God come from loving. Loving is central to all God is.

    When we reach out to others in thier time of need. God is present too. When we play with our children, or just be with our family. In all these actions, God is there too. You may not know that He is, He just is there.

    The book of Enoch says in it not to be put in the Bible but to be separate.

    Also, I was talking to a veteran about prisoners the other day at the clinic I work at. He says that prisoners get the real drugs and not the generic. I find that really stupid and wasting of taxpayer money. The prisoners can just have the generic drugs they don't need the real normal powerful drugs. Same goes for senior citizens too. And also for all those poor people on government subsidize medical insurance, And that includes myself.

    "Generic" drugs ARE "the real normal powerful drugs".

    All they lack is a brand name.

    It's a no brainer! That's how it works. The sooner you get that int ...[text shortened]... head the sooner you can stop making erroneous statements about something you know nothing about.
    The claim that the bible is 'inspired' by 'god' is a risible nonsense peddled by the misguided to the gullible. Clearly these people feel more comfortable knowing that they have persuaded others to agree with their delusions, but really, scripture should only be regarded as a source material by historians. It is laughably irrelevant as a source of moral guidance or material insight. That men still fritter away their lives arguing over the nuances of parables written in a different and long -dead world is just sad. If there is a god, and he wants you to know something, I reckon he could come up with a better way of getting his message across, don't you?

    (edit) No-brainer. That's what you'd have to be to accept somebody else's word that the bible represents the word of god. Think for yourself man!
