Do they know something that the Church doesn't? It is evident the Church developed theories while contemplating the nature of man similar in some respects to the work of Freud. Blocking up the sewer pipe might not be a good idea.

However, if you are going to Mount CollarmeChat... you might actually put together a sermon rather than twitter type comments.

I know... I know... get behind me.

I suppose what some lament that the Church did not take the pharmaceutical route. Here my son, take two of these and see me in the morning.

I was wondering what you thought of RemoteUser. I wonder what Pamplona was a reference to. There was a hidden message in something else he posted so I'm wondering if there is a hidden message here as well.

And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these words, the multitudes were astonished at his teaching: for he taught them as one having authority, and not as their scribes.

Is this scripture? I was just curious. Are you referring to your work or Gods work?

Good Morning BenevolentM.

The short answer is, Is this Scripture? It is. I will present you with a religious argument. When you do a good deed are you not rewarded in Heaven for it? The treasure is your property. It does not belong to the person who is the recipient of your goodness. It is yours. I have the means to be a Bearer of Gifts. For it I will have much treasure in Heaven. It won't be your treasure, however. Therein lies the problem.

To Save you I must encourage you to take responsibility.

You know they stone false prophets in the bible, don't ya?

NO MAN is to determine who makes it to heaven. You are spouting your take on things... which doesn't line up with any of the bibles I have and I have a few.

Status: offline 		My work is a work of man sanctioned by God. You would think it would be better for me to call it a Revelation, but this is not so. I affirm the story of Genesis. We were created in the image of God, we were noble born. It is what the Devil wished to deny and tempted Christ to deny.
