:wave: Hi and welcome Arthra - perhaps I was unclear, and perhaps you slightly misread. I was referring to the multitude of beliefs in a plurarity of Gods that existed prior to Christianity. Sorry Arthra, but I am always "lost for words" at moments like this. ANYTHING that does not exist...

:wave:Hi and welcome Arthra wrote: Interestingly, 1,250 odd years BEFORE Christianity, Akhenaten, the Egyptian Pharoah, said exactly the same thing with his monotheistic faith; Christianity relying heavily upon an already existent pagan concept. The Baha'i faith also seems to take for...

:wave: Hi and welcome :wave: Oh, such confusion, to which I must add my own mental deliberations. Oh, such confusion! Where do I stand? Gnosis, as in knowledge. Does it really matter what you BELIEVE, if the knowledge to hand informs us that ALL pagan Gods prior to Christianity were silent...

:wave: Hi and welcome "And God said . . . . .etc . . etc" We get this of course, from the Bible. So, according to humans, "God said . . . . etc . . etc" So, according to humans, apparently God said many things, but interestingly, none of it included what a God was. This was apparently...

:wave: Hi and welcome :wave: I've used the above quotes to highlight the inaccuracies in the views expressed in response. The following from the originator of this thread, highlight the same. Secret of Fatima In laymans terms, creation never was, this being the fundamental error in...

:wave:Hi and welcome Well, I've done it. I ploughed through all nine pages, and I'm still awake. Sure, I digressed towards a well earned cup of tea and consideration of the nature of my interjection. I hope my examples though, will aid towards the meaninglessness of the majority of the...

:wave: Hi and welcome Written by Rossi: Hmmn? Completely wrong, and with no supporting evidence? Similar to? Not the same, then. Bordering on? Ditto. Eugenics, the term coined by Francis Galton, was never instigated with coercion, rather, the bioengineering of better human beings, something...

:wave: Hi and welcome Let's try and clear some air here. Muhammed claimed that he received revelations from the Angel Gabriel - NOT from God. The first time the Angel Gabriel is ever mentioned is in the Biblical Book of Daniel, whilst he was imprisoned in Sumeria. The Sumerian God El, with...

:wave: Hi and welcome Always such misinterpretation and confusion, no doubt caused by such strong belief and not reality. I shall use Elwill's comment to kick off: Elohim is NOT the Hebrew word for God; Baal is NOT the Cannanite word for a God, and Allah is NOT the singular name for a God...

:wave:Hi and welcome I was confronted the other day, by some guy collecting for an Asthma society, who I had been watching for some 30 minutes or so. "You're not having much luck are you" I stated, to which he replied that he was sure that I could help to alleviate that situation by donating a...

:wave: Hi and welcome, I only caught a snippet of this on the news, but it seems that the Pope is saying that Homosexual activity should be discouraged. I really do not understand this at all, particularly as his thinking seems to be that male and female are gender that should be preserved as...

:wave:Hi SolarWave er, you just have.

:wave: Hi and welcome Interesting this LOZ. After all, just how much free will do we have? Our decisions are based upon our educational and environmental experiences, which no doubt leaves me in a different position to you. I cannot choose to do something of which I know nothing, resultantly...

:wave: Hi Solarwave Interesting thought, as conjecture always is. However, if one wishes to consider hereditary genes, then I imagine it to be reasonably conclusive that education is not one of them, innate or otherwise. We are born naked intellectually, and it is only through our...

:wave:Hi and welcome Salida wrote: Venus figurines were carved as far back as 27,000 B.C., but the majority of them have been dated between 23,000 B.C. and 21,000 B.C. The latest figurines found date to about 12,000 B.C. The most famous of the Venuses is the Venus of Willendorf, carved...

Grow up lkarmaz2 - Solarwave and I are having a perfectly reasonable discussion. Crikey, I've even wished him good tidings for Xmas. Flame away at me if you prefer - I couldn't care less.

:wave:Hi and welcome Hi Morningstar One "hellova" long answer I'm afraid, and little incentive this end to deal with it at length. If you research my previous posts about the Exodus, where I have shown an alternative view, you will understand the danger in the "postexilic" period, of...

:wave:Hi and welcome. A quote firstly. A balbale to Inana for Šu-Suen (Šu-Suen B): c.2.4.4.2 My lord and god, my lord and guardian ANGEL, my Šu-Suen who cheers Enlil's heart, if only you would handle your sweet place, if only you would grasp your place that is sweet as honey...

:wave: Hi and welcome My dear Solarwave - this is not an attack. Usually, if I attack, which is extremely rare, there is nothing left. However, I do apologise if you felt that this was so. Well, given that the majority of Gods believed in, also had an afterlife connected with them, I would...

:wave: Hi and welcome Solarwave, this is what I said: "there is 100% proof of the FACT that all the concepts thought to be original to Christianity, are in FACT, absolutely NOT, in their complete entirety." Now, how you can then offer the question that you have, completely bewilders me...
