Society & Culture - 9 December 2007

IE Gospel of Mary, the Acts of John, the Homilies of Clement, the Gospel of Truth, and the Gospel of Judas.

Evangelicals would surely say that they were left out of the bible because they were wrong... But evangelicals also say the Catholic Church (those who deemed these "Lost Gospels" as heretical writings) is an uninspired organization formed by the devil... So, evangelicals, was the Catholic Church inspired or not? If not, why dont you cannonize these Lost Gospels? If yes, why are you not Catholic? I'm just curious.

Jus curious. And why or why not? By the way, let's say the guy doesn't see you as a sex object or something like that. He's just very attracted to you sexually. And finds you very very sexy. Would you be offended if he masturbated to you or fantasized about you? How would you feel exactly?

I have friends who wait for people to invite them for Chrstmas, Thanksgiving, and any other celebration, the wife won't "do" Christmas for just her and her husband, they have no children and don't like it when they go to parties where there are children present.
How do I get her to see how selfish she is? She's a good person otherwise, but mooches off other people for her and her husbands entertainment. She doesn't decorate for Christmas either, yet expects Christmas gifts.

My step son just called me. He invited me to go to Basle at the weekend. I said I had already arranged with my daughter (his step-sister) to go to a Hamam. 'What?', he asked.
'A Turkish bath,' I replied.
I was amazed! He's Turkish!

Basically:

"You are allowed to have weapons for the purpose of defense, hunting and sport"

or

"The state shall not support any religious worship"

Which one do you consider to be more of a detriment to the United States?

Thanks a lot.

In Isaiah 14:12 the bible says Lucifer is the morning star. You'll have to check some of the various versions of the bible to see that it's the morning star, which the KJV calls the "Son of the morning."

The KJV says this:
12How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

The NIV says this:
12 How you have fallen from heaven,
O morning star, son of the dawn!
You have been cast down to the earth,
you who once laid low the nations!

New American Standard Bible says this:
12"How you have (A)fallen from heaven,
O (B)star of the morning, son of the dawn!
You have been cut down to the earth,
You who have weakened the nations!

But Jesus declares he's lucifer in

Revelation 22:16
I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
