The Gospel of Thomas is a gospel that was discovered over a half century ago in the Egyptian desert – dates to the very beginnings of the Christian era and may well have taken first form before any of the four traditional canonical Gospels. If you have never read it, here is a link http://www.gnosis.org/naghamm/gosthom.html

Please tell me what you think of it, and what it would mean to Christians if it was to be included in the Bible.

It has been proven beyond doubt that there is a negative correlation between intelligence and acceptance of religion.

Do you think one causes the other, or is it a vicious cycle?

The Bible addresses several beautiful examples of same-sex love, David's love for Jonathan was said to exceed his love for women (2 Samuel1:26)

Ruth's relationship with Naomi is an example of a deep, bonding love, and Ruth's words of covenant to Naomi are often used in heterosexual wedding ceremonies (Ruth 1:16-17)

The Bible has very little to say about homosexuality and Jesus himself said nothing about it at all in the New Testament.

If i said "I hate blue flamingos" would that mean i hate flamingos that are blue, or all flamingos?

If i said "I hate falling rocks" would that mean i hate rocks that are falling, or all rocks?

If i said "I hate stupid christians" would that mean i hate christians that are stupid, or all christians?

Now, is it fair that i got a violation for saying "I hate stupid christians" because they thought i called christians stupid and i hate them all? What do you think?

The current Pope was a member in of the Hitler Youth and as such would certainly participated in antisemitic actions and/or demonstrations. As he has not seen fit to recant his membership in this abhorrent organisation, and in view of the catholic church's shocking long term history of antisemitism do you believe he is morally fit to be pope or should he resign?

quran says:(That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:-

[4:158] Nay, Allah raised him up unto Himself; and Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise;-)
what do u think?

Bible says; "God is not a man... not the son of man.."

Why were we attacked that day, and it wasn't because we are free or our religious beliefs. There was a score to settle and what was it. Why us? It was so well planned and took so much for those assholes to prepare for it. It was for their god, but the actual attackers are brainwashed, the one with the real vendetta against the U.S. was safe in a cave somewhere. Does anyone know? There had to be a reason for it to be us.
