I personally believe that believing that the Authorised Version is the only valid version is a heresy. As much as I adore and respect the Authorised Version, by denying the presence of the Holy Ghost in translating the Bible, we inadvertently commit blasphemy. The inspiration of the Trinity is...

I don't identify in any way, shape, or form with Orthodox Judaism. I identify with many elements of Reform Judaism and to a degree with elements of Conservative Judaism. Judaism is a beautiful faith, it is an ancient faith. My own Eastern Orthodoxy takes elements from Jewish prayer and liturgy...

That's simply not true. Liberal Christians have never said that sin no longer exists.

You'd have to define what spouting hatred means. If you mean making very nasty and pointed statements about people behind their backs, I think I'd agree.

I'm sorry about how harsh I came across, I realise that was a tad bit wrong, but still, you can't just misunderstand what people are saying and then attack them, which I feel you have done. It's rude and inconsiderate.

I've never done such, but I just had such done to me. It's unfair, ungodly, and mean. I feel very hurt when a person really has the nerve to go and talk about me in a negative way. I apologise on behalf of the people here to my fellow conservatives for what happened.

You didn't respond in love, no, you attacked me personally and probably was implying, as you are now, that anyone that doesn't hold the same worldview as you isn't a Christian and is venomous and should be rebuked. You rebuked me, and I responded. You still have not responded to the points I raised

How cowardly. Instead of responding to me here, he berates me and criticises me without evaluating my arguments.

Actually, he had a female disciple. She is the beloved Saint Mary Magdalene. She was present with Christ at the Crucifixction and all throughout the gospels. She is an emblem of Christian femininity and godly, beautiful, and obedient women. I love her and along with the Blessed Virgin Mary and...

It is. It clearly is trying to personally attack me for what I said. Just because I like reading between the lines doesn't make me a heretic and unorthodox. If you don't believe what I'm saying, go do the work for yourself and read the Rabbinical literature and responsa on homosexuality. I can...

Maybe my Bible has a liberal bias. My Bible clearly states that both spouses should be subject to one another.

I asked a clarifying question because I may have meant legitimised in a different way than the author of that post did and made suggestions to justify my point based on what Judaism had done and closely reading into the language of the passages. Neither do I consider myself a liberal. I just...

And again, subject to one another. Mutual submission. The husband is the head of the wife, as in a husband is traditionally the head of household, but we also see the case of Priscilla and Aquilla, in which Priscilla, the female, seems to be the one who's doing lots of work, and in many cases is...

"Be subject to one another our of reverence for Christ." There's no if ands or buts there. There's no 'the woman is subject but the man is not'. It explicitly says to one another.

You forgot verse twenty one of that passage. In the New Revised Standard Version Anglicised, "Be subject to one another [spouses] out of reverence for Christ.", emphasis added. Subject to one another. It then goes on to explain that husbands should be the head of household, and hustbands should...

Marriage should be egalitarian. I explicitly reject the teaching of complementarianism or a patriachial marriage. Women should respect men and men respect women. Spouses are of equal value and worth. There is no distiction of men and women in Christ. Saint Paul of Tarus states this clearly...

He, not she, by the way, I'm male by birth and desire. And no, I'm not a mind reader, I would like to know what you mean by legitimised. You are starting to speak with that assertive and rude tone. Please don't. I'm asking for a clarification. I responded to what you asked in the best possible...

Both men and women should dress modestly. Spouses should submit to one another, and both submit to the Creator. Submission is respect and acknowledging each others intrinsic value and worth. Marriage should be egalitarian. I explicitly reject the teaching of complementarianism or a patriachial...

I'm sorry if people have responded to you that way. People hear the word conservative and they get really angry, for some strange reason.

Including those of Christians and Jews?
