Which Jesus is 'real', David? I have every confidence that who Jesis is
matters to you. To the extent that Judy influences others with her 'Jesus'
she is not an influence for good (teaching.)
It may be that you take exception to 'language' more than I.

You are mischaracterizing Judy. Judy believes that Jesus is real.

I am never comfortable giving offense, and I never purposefully give
offense. I feel just like Jesus on this, "blessed is he who shall not be
offended in me."

David, the 'F' word is far less offensive than
the 'Z' word, IMO.
I disagree. Zircon is used to illustrate the meaning that Judy reads into
the meaning of "likeness." It is helpful in the discussion because then I
can say, "ok, but a Zircon is a counterfeit diamond and Jesus is not a
counterfeit," or "likeness sometimes means close imitation in one way but
not another, but sometimes likeness is caused by a genetic relationship,
such as in identical twins."
Even sinners know not to use the "F" word, and even profane gentlemen
know
not to say it around women and children, but unfortunately in today's
culture, even educated Christian women will purposefully be obscene and
speak that which is not holy in order to make a point. Shameful. It was
not a necessary choice of words. It did not help make her point. It only
served to offend those of us who cast down every evil thought and
imagination.
