That's true and it's not my point. Stephen was actually saying, to my utter shock frankly, that God's OK with whatever religion we choose, they're all the same basic narrative (except, as he contended also, it's never the same narrative). He also contended that the prophets of God have been rather ineffective and God occasionally sprouts new ones to get the momentum back, or whatever. My point was, his equivocation is untenable, intellectually and spiritually. We were well past whether God exists or not in this friendly difference of opinion. I don't think he or I have any issues on that point, though I wonder now what kind of God he imagines; seems very different than the one Jesus talks about. - Bob > > Regards, > > Pete > [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ 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.
