Ah, the "educated and highly intelligent" folk. IMHO, they're the cause of most of the confusion about what scripture actually says. Wise in their own conceits, many of them have done considerable harm, by taking it upon themselves not merely to interpret scripture for hoi polloi like us, but also to invent fairy tales that are irreconcilable with it---and make the whole proposition sound absurd, instead of helping people make sense of it. The Lord taught in parables, and there isn't one of them today that the average person can't understand, once one or two cultural references are explained. > We get it better, priests take care of the boring stuff and tell us the > nice fairy tales.

All true except for the getting saved part. - Bob _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
