1. The Bible was written by peopleemytaylor164 said:how so?
the people who were eye witnesses (well in the gospels anyway) other then that is still the word of GodCaptain Gh3y said:1. The Bible was written by people
not the case at allcaptain Gh3y said:2. It wasn't written until several decades after Christ, and the official version (which books were canon or not) wasn't settled until several centuries after Christ
i disagree although knowing when it was written can help to understand it and how it applies today, but you can still get the main pointcaptain Gh3y said:3. It makes no sense if you read it 100% literally in modern English without the historical context
only the unbiblical ones, like i know my church has communion e.t.c.captain Gh3y said:4. evangelical Biblical literalists ignore all the tradition (unlike Catholics or Orthodox) that was just as much a part of Christianity as the Bible
i disagree and what is wrong with your own interpretation of the bible as long is it actually biblical and you can are getting the big picture, we constantly look at the history of the books to assist in understanding which does involve looking to biblical scholarscaptian Gh3y said:oh and
5. Serious Biblical scholars who do know about the history of the books and the times they were written in don't seem to think they mean the same things as the fundies seem to think they mean... wonder who's right?
No, Captain Ghey is actually correct. (refer to pwar's post in the thread which got closed last night).emytaylor164 said:not the case at all
i meant that it was written decades after the death of christ sorryCharlieB said:No, Captain Ghey is actually correct. (refer to pwar's post in the thread which got closed last night).
Anyway, in the third third and finally the fourth century the Church Council began to issue decisions on what constituted the canon of the Scriptures (and discarded those which weren't aligned with the Word of God ie - those which weren't canonical). The final, definitive and absolute list was not made until the 16th century.

yep! It's all cleared up on the wyd website now.Reyn Reyn said:heys, i'm going to wyd.
you don't have to pay to go to the final mass,
but the people who have paid and registered get first priority.
also their condom supplier just dropped out hahaUNSW Aheist Society said:The UNSW Aheist Society is hosting an epic WCYD raid on the 17th of July, 2008. It will be the Society’s response to an event that is costing NSW millions of dollars.
The Society has a few plans for the event, but needs attendees of the raid to help out with the following;
- Obtaining 1000-2000 condoms, National Council of Women Contraception Pamplets, and Abortion Advice Booklets to hand out to Catholics at the entrance to the racecourse;
- Covering the city with satirical media, and infiltrating the media with our words of protest; and
- Holding an Alternative 'World Heathen Day' event on the day after our raid to celebrate.
The Society is looking for a few hundred helpers for this and are asking you to invite anyone and everyone you can. They’ll set up an executive and planning teams in the next few weeks. Many meetings will be held at UNSW and USyd.

then what of the Great Schism?Captain Gh3y said:goddamnit the evangelicals "catholics aren't christians" thing pisses me off
THEY'RE THE REAL CHRISTIANS YOU LUNATICS
Well according to you I'm going to hell so I take what you have to say with a grain of salt. Be off on your merry preaching ways, try and save a few more souls! At least the Catholics don't have to market for members.emytaylor164 said:also one of the ones furthest from the bible,
btw the reason i do not support wyd is cos of plenary indulgences been offered (search that on the wyd site) completely unbiblical
Catholic classrooms are going to be filled with pilgrims sleeping on the floors and in halls. I know of one instance where a hall (wooden floored, no air conditioning) will be filled with pilgrims. Now that's penance!.:AmBeR.SmItH:. said:ooome and my fanily were gonna host some of the people whom come here from round the globe... were not religous or anythng just thought it would be nice ... but dad said no said it would be wierd for the strangers to be at our house, as they would have to be on fold out beds, and dad said that, the fold out beds wernt good enuf

...What about it? :-/inasero said:then what of the Great Schism?
I don't think anyone would dispute the Gospels were second or third hand accounts written around 60-110ADemytaylor164 said:i meant that it was written decades after the death of christ sorry
Wrong. Of the synoptic gospels, Matthew and John were eponymously named after two of Jesus' original disciples. The Gospels of Mark and Luke were written around 60AD, not long after Jesus was crucified and resurrected.Captain Gh3y said:I don't think anyone would dispute the Gospels were second or third hand accounts written around 60-110AD
Well in response toPwarYuex said:...What about it? :-/
Obviously the orthodox churches had a point of disagreement to have made the decision to split off from the supposed "real christians". I don't know what point he's trying to make.Captain Gh3y said:goddamnit the evangelicals "catholics aren't christians" thing pisses me off
THEY'RE THE REAL CHRISTIANS YOU LUNATICS
I never agreed. I simply brought up the dates as a response to the implication that the gospels were introduced long after Jesus' life on Earth, which is clearly not the case.Exphate said:He's wrong...but you agree?
