I wonder about people who drink on their wedding day; but then, I wonder about people who drink on any day.
Is this the same Jesus that died on the Cross for our salvation?Jesus certainly did.
What difference does it make? The bible is not a science book, it is myth.
So, then what? - did Jesus know about the germ theory of disease? If so, then why the heck didn't he say something?
All people in the Palestinian desert area two millennia ago, including Jesus, were profoundly ignorant of modern science - knowledge you and I take for granted. The bible is no more a science book than I am ten feet tall or you are the King of France.
Are you really saying that Jesus didn't drink wine?
Have you been following the conversation, Cab; or are you breaking in here?
Jesus drank what we call New Testament wine.
In other words: grape juice.
Oh, so the miracle wasn't that great after all, it is much easier to turn water into grape juice (just add grapes) than it is to turn it into wine. Thanks for clarifying.
... Hey, scientist, I don't mean to break in on your vast scientific knowledge or anything, but in the spirit of my movie file, I feel I have to at least point you in the right direction.
Um ... please read the account of Jesus turning water into wine -- (it's in John 2) -- and um ... could you tell me what physical law would have been broken if Jesus would have done it your way?
Hint: See verse 7.
(If there was a Christian equivalence of FSTDT, I can picture someone sending this there.)
الحمد لله‎!You have finally spoken the truth. It took me a while to realize that my body is that of an animal and it is the result of years of bio-evolutionary reproductive modifications. It made me feel dirty at first knowing I was no longer "special".
The truth is that Reality is best applied directly down one's throat and if he or she vomits it from their lips then it only means they have rejected it. If they reject it then take another spoonful and add some "sugar" to sweeten the taste then cram it back inside until they finally acquire a taste for the it and stays in their craw
Well, uh, yes. For those who believe humans are spirits or souls who just ride around in physical bodies, as it were, then what the heck would it matter how those bodies came about? It is the spirit or soul that is the person, as most people in the west claim to believe, and that is the important thing to religious people, is it not?
I happen to view evolution and the universe as completely natural, but I have no real beef with theistic evolution as such. I mean, I can hardly imagine what difference it makes - exactly how it all got started 13.82 Billions years ago. lol.
I believe science has morally bankrupted this country.
If you did, it would be a sin ... and that's what started this whole fiasco.EDIT: Although I will mention again that I don't drink. Not for religious reasons, it's just a personal choice.
I believe science has morally bankrupted this country.
Wine has that effect on people ... I think.
I believe science has morally bankrupted this country.
Feel free to disconnect your internet then.
I think wine is wine; always has been. If it didn't ferment and produce alcohol, then why is it written in Mark 2:22 "And no man puts new wine into old wineskins: else the new wine does burst the wineskins, and the wine is spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined: but new wine must be put into new wineskins?" It's the buildup of carbon dioxide leftove from the fermentation process that would burst the wine bottles. Having made my own wine and brewed my own beer, I'v seen this before. It has been said that the alcohol content was lower then and that may well be depending on the process they used.If you did, it would be a sin ... and that's what started this whole fiasco.
And with this discussion, AV has punged into new depths of dumb. You guys are of course free to follow him there.Then please explain to me why Nuh became intoxicated from the win along with the events in which Jesus turned water into wine. It was specifically recorded that these people were intoxicated.
