the Bible can't seem to make up its mind. Did they have editors back then to check for such things as internal consistency?

Is there any regular on this board that belongs to the ''other side'' that you have changed your opinion of? I must say I have. That Catholic Crusader kinda grows on me :)

((((CC))))

Happy ____ (insert whatever you celebrate)

P.S. Just for the record, I'm using the term ''other side'' only as a figure of speech and because I lack a better term right now LOL (it's past midnight here).

or how came the sheep keepers were outside if Jesus was born during very cold weather on Dec. 25? or Wouldn't be difficult for the rulers to pass a law that each individual should sign up their name during cold weather? This is not only for the rulers but also for people who were at that time would have been so difficult to do the job done. Then if these were the cases, Why should we celebrate on Dec. 25? Something must be wrong!!

I am a Catholic, but I like to know a little about people of other faiths.

I know Muslims believe Jesus was only a Prophet and not God incarnate. And that his teachings were corrupted along with the Old Testament.[some how]

So I would like to know what if any of the Bible do you believe in, as well as what proof other than the teachings of Muhammed you have to support the idea of its corruption.

Isaiah 10
1 Woe to those who make unjust laws,
to those who issue oppressive decrees,

2 to deprive the poor of their rights
and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people,
making widows their prey
and robbing the fatherless.

Isa 41:4 Who hath wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I the LORD (ie Jehovah), the First, and with the Last; I am He.

Rev 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.


Why is Jehovah in Isaiah 41, Who is the First and the Last, the Alpha and Omega, Who is the Almighty in Rev 1:8? Who is the Almighty Jehovah?

.....so Jehovah witnesses, those who can give an honest answer, Who is He who is identified in Isaiah 41:4 together in Rev 1:8?

Mankind cannot understand or explain everything, a person cannot know all there is to know. Faith in a divine creator/supervisor of the cosmos fills in the gaps.
We will always feel the need to controll the uncontrollable (prayer/rabbits feet) we will always have death and the afterlife to wonder about.
Once we have advanced to the limits of science, will we return to religion, or will science replace it?

Atheism is rapidly growing in numbers. Do you think as humans progress they will forget about our Creator?

Ham? Turkey? Roast Beef? Something else? Tell me what type of meat you are having for Christmas dinner. We're having ham with pinapple and marachino cherries attatched. Then for New Year's we're having Alaskan King Crab legs. Yum! Happy holidays!

Aren't there skeletal remains of neenderthal skeletons? Carbon dating states that the word has been around for 4.6 billion years. Ever hear of primordial elements? Those are elements on earth right now that existed in the Universe before the earth was formed. How do you explain how we can see light 1 billion light years away? That takes 1 billion years to reach earth. I'm not atheist by the way, I'm Catholic.

The Antithests are trying to rename Christmas, So they can take out the "Christ" part, so it doesn't have anything to do with Jesus. Even though, Christmas is the date of the birth of Jesus Christ. They want Christmas to be all about Santa Clause and not have anything to do with Jesus.
