You deserve a medal of truth JJstar.

It's obvious to me when others recite quotes from the bible which ones were inserted by kings to control the masses.

I then ask them if god really does care about taxes.

i personally like to imagine god shouting it with a cockney accent, and i hear it as... 'ello! here! I am! 'im!
however, that is not doctrinal in ANY religion, i just like it. :)

but other people, like, oh, in church or wherever, say it like: El-oh-him, so yes, i guess like the word yellow. if you google it, it comes up in Wikipedia.

I'm with you, Kilroy. I am also of the opinion that the Earth is something to be protected, not used as the playing field for some winner-take-all-and-damn-the-losers cosmic grudge match.

Or we could just say that G-d gave humankind the duty of preserving the Earth, which, by the Bible, H- did, and so we should do our part to fulfill this duty.

well I don't read the bible and if he was all powerful, he'd have stepped in by now because clearly our species are of the dumbest made!
I ain't doing anything for this "God" :roll:

Calm down please!
I wrote what I wrote to point out that there is possible common ground on a matter in which you thought there was none.
G-d will step in soon enough, but stepping in has to be done at the right time. Stepping in does involve some negative consequences.
Concerning your "our species are of the dumbest made", would you mind calmly going into detail?

I don't think we can safely say that politics are the whole of our specie.
Kilroy, would you also mind sending me a private message concerning the details of why you became a Wiccan and what you now believe? I'm asking this out of curiosity, to develop my own knowledge, not out of any desire to bring you back to Christianity. Please don't simply send me a link to wicca.com, since I'm fairly sure that the Internet system I am using (because of where I am geographically) will block out that site.
