Spong thinks the gospels are completely allegorical to fit in the Jewish liturgical year. His view of the Virgin Birth is that it is to symbolize that membership is open to all and no longer by tribe or even jewish heritage. In the context of his whole argument, which gospels have the virgin birth a...

Give your home teacher explicit instructions that you and your family are off limits for any discussion or targeting in any such meeting.

If you're pursuing life philosophy from fiction, that doesn't seem to be belief in the same category as the OP. Indeed fiction is meant to be used as a tool to generate interpretations according to Umberto Eco. This different than belief. Sort of like the separation between philosophy and religion. ...

It seems to believe in something, Odin, that you have to accept it as a reality to start off. That seems to require some literalness at least at it's core.

Your can use trademarks it service marks in criticism, reviews and other fair use type ways. He could still be served with admca take down notice at the ISP. even when you're right, can you afford to be right in court? That's what it can come down to.

Free speech is about limiting government action against speechin public places. On private property, the owner has say in if you're allowed to speak in certain ways or not. A newspaper can't be censored by the government in the USA though there are limits for libel, incitement of violence and so on....

The Bible at least has some empirical adequacy. World scholars can debate it's efficacy but how it came into being is a limited argument. It is verifiably ancient. How it came into being is has three main theories but the hard evidence is actually very limited. The oldest fragment is from Numbers a...

To point out flaws in the Bible would be to point out the flaws in the Book of Mormon. As a generalization, The Book of Mormon reinforces every outlandish claim of the Bible. The Book of Mormon teaches a literal creation, a literal Adam and Eve, no death before the fall, a literal Global flood, a li...

A lot of the material im thinking of is older and no longer on the church site.

Reuben Clark’s instructions to a group of professi...

Give it some time, you'll drop off the gossip radar simply because no one there will know you. It will happen faster if you're between the ages of Elders and High Priest because you aren't really in either group very deeply.

I know that. That's the risk of operating a public accommodation in an open society.

Certainly the owner can explain that issue and see if the customer would like to take the job elsewhere. But the owner doesn't have the right to refuse the job on the grounds of sin or offense.

I enjoyed it but there are parts that didn't work for me. Just quickly, Luv knowing where K was at the orphanage for no good reason, then not knowing when he goes to Vegas. Either she can know or she can't or they needed a much better bit of explaining. SPOILER there's no reason given to think that ...

I'm of mixed attitude on the burqa thing. I do agree that as far as a need to identify a person, a clear face picture and face exposure for comparison is important for our current toolset. You could have a person of the same gender do the identification in private if that were the key factor. Althou...
