  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

although the bible doesn't say jesus was married, it doesn;t say he wasn't
doesnt really talk about wether his disciples were married either
some people think the gospel of mary is fake, some think she was a prostitute even though there is no ecidence of this at all
mary magdalene holds a special place among some christians, islands in canada are named after her, numerous churches and monuments etc all over the place
odd if she was a prostitute

my point is that lots of things were left out of the bible for reasons we do not know today
gospel of thomas being one of them
why is it almost 60 years and we still dont know what the dead sea scrolls fully entail?

my other point is that i dont really trust anyone, i don't trust churches, or people, because they are dishonest.
so when a church or the vatican says, It is this way, not that way, i look at that with speculation, like i look at everything,

Once again, its incredibly hard to know... We all know that there is no definitive version of the Gospel, and it The Gospels were carefully selected... "Matthew, Mark Luke and John" were groups of people, rather than single men.. It is the mainly the group theories, and says more about faith V. Science... Have you notice that the Gospels left out *I tend to examine things a fair bit... so bear with me* were all those that painted Jesus as a human prophet? We probably dont see the dead sea scrolls because what is in them would be detrimental to the Catholic belief system; worshipping Jesus as part of the Holy Trinty. If it were proven that Jesus were a mortal prophet, by painting him as anything other than a divine, lustless figure then the very foundations of certain Christian groups would be destroyed.

Pick up one of these other Gospels... These were excluded for a reason...
