I say that they are decieved and lying when they do this. Why else would they attack Dave Hanson(or any one else) for his beliefs.  I find it weird that when Kay posted a definition of the word Christian and applied it to Dave Hanson along with most others on here several attacked the definition, but failed to provide a different definition when she asked for one.  Far too many here are resorting to the acrimonious street preacher style of voicing their opinions.  WHY?  It certainly serves no purpose and surely is not done in love or in the reflection of our savior. That style is repulsive and turns many more people away from Messiah than draws in. It only shows just how small and petty some can be while hiding behind a false image of Messiah. I pity you petty little people. Keep up the good work John, I like your style! Jeff  ============================================ Something you might wish to consider, Jeff; It is not love to allow someone to go merrily to Hell if there is anything you can do to stop that. Dave H. is a nice guy, polite, well mannered, probably a pillar in his community, but according to what he believes  (he can become a God, Jesus, if I remember correctly, came from the planet Kolub, Holy underwear adorned with Masonic signs somehow has some benefit, baptism for the dead and a few other things never mentioned in the Bible) he is as lost as a billy goat.  I send him jokes at times,and I appreciate his sense of humor.  I pray for him, though probably not often enough.  If he dies unsaved, I will mourn, but I will not accept what he believes so that he can be more communal with me.  I hope you think about that.
