Rejection of evolution correlates with racism

Considering how Paul himself became a Christian, such an admonishment against visions is ironic at least, and hypocritical at most.

It was Paul who most likely wrote that but we don't know for sure the author is not given

Why ... he said "spoken to us by His son."

His son spoke to Paul on the road to Damascus, then later, personally trained and equipped him to take the Gospel to the Gentiles.

I attribute it to Paul, just to avoid a knock-down-drag-out argument over the issue.

Either way, God wrote it.

True, but the author was either Paul, or someone writing in his name, as it were. Either way...

In the same manner that Obi Wan Kenobi told Luke on the frozen plains of Hoth to seek out Yoda on Dagobah.

If you look up Star Wars on IMDB, you'll see the words: ACTION ... ADVENTURE ... FANTASY.

And according to Wikipedia, it has a fictional timeline.

But this says it all:

Academia

As the characters and the storyline of the original trilogy are so well known, educators have used the films in the classroom as a learning resource. For example, a project in Western Australia honed elementary school students storytelling skills by role-playing action scenes from the movies and later creating props and audio/visual scenery to enhance their performance. Others have used the films to encourage second-level students to integrate technology in the science classroom by making prototype lightsabers. Similarly, psychiatrists in New Zealand and the US have advocated their use in the university classroom to explain different types of psychopathology.

Would you prefer we focus on yet another one of your ad hominem attacks on academia or learning in general? (Yeah, you probably would, we've read your file.)

Show me the Bible in the same category as Star Wars (fiction).

You can't, can you?

So comparing Paul to Obi Wan Kenobi is a cheap shot.

And a professor of literature should know better.

But I have a feeling I'm casting my pearls before academia.

Who here is a professor of literature? The quoted item about Star Wars doesn't say anything about equivocating Paul and Master Obi Wan.

And if you would actually pay attention to the words you quoted, you'll see I said "in the same way...."

Surely even a hyperliteralist such as yourself can understand an analogy... or perhaps you can't.

My sincerest apologies to General Kenobi.

Believe me, I do... so can stop pretending to.

But I have a feeling I'm casting my pearls before academia.

What pearls?
