Mythology & Folklore - February 2007

Many of the "stories" found in The Bible oddly correspond almost exactly to "myths" found in Ancient Greece Mythology. Is this a coincidence? If so - why are we so reluctant to accept Christianity as mythology rather than literal history and actuality in nature?

Do you believe in Zeus? God? If you don't believe in Zeus, what is your basis for belief in God? Think about it.

I just saw a figure, no face, no bright light. It was a cloaked figure and I could not make out its face. The cloak was misty, kind of see through and gray. I was not scared, or uncomfortable and then it just vanished. Any ideas? thanks.

I am a King Arthur fanatic. I love all the stories and legends. I am writing my own King Arthur novel right now i call "Chronicles of Camelot". I was wondering if anyone could tell me some interresting King Arthur stories, or point me to a website that has a bunch of legends of King Arthur. If you could do that it would be great.

Charmers said keeping a magnet (in your pocket or purse) can attract people to you. We know magnet has polarity that attracts positive and negatively charged particles. We humans have it. Could it be possibly true, right?

Paul states that "on the way to the place of prayer we met a slave-girl possessed by the spirit of devination." Acts 16:16
Yet, the Christians now state that devination is impossible. That those claiming to have this talent are "witches or worse." I suppose this is because they never really study there own Books, but instead take the words of there leaders as "gospel." They also become paranoid and aggressive when confronted with true information like this.
Since their is a wee bit of leeway in the new testament, lets go to the Torah. The witch of Endor cured Miriam of leprosy with an incantation. I suppose, by Christian standards, the Witch of Endor should have been murdered for curing Miriam.
Some of you might want to actually read Acts 16:17/18 before answering as the only reason Paul cast out the spirit of the slave girl was that she exasperated him by following him and his companion.
16:17 The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These
men are the servants of the most high God, which show unto us
the way of salvation.
16:18 And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved,
turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of
Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.

Do you believe in that type of magic? (Witches, demons, whitelighters, etc.) Do you believe in the Charmed Ones?

I`m asking your opinion. I do believe in it, and I`ve dealt with it, but I want to see other people`s opinions. Please be civil.
