just like genesis 1 and genesis 2 are so different. I found the book of job so different. it starts with a tempo of fairy tale. "there was a man named job who lived in the land of Uz." there is no genealogy. the entire arguments between job and three friends are like job against satan. is this book figurative? what does job represent? what do those three friends symbolize?

Many enjoy criticizing those who pray the Rosary and similar traditional prayers, claiming that there is something intrinsicaly wrong with repetetive prayer, and they base this solely on one new testament passage that refers only to the practices of pagans, who pray to false gods.

This passage from Revelation seems to indicate that God appeciates and even mandates repetetive prayer:

Rev 4:6 And before the throne [there was] a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, [were] four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
Rev 4:7 And the first beast [was] like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast [was] like a flying eagle.
Rev 4:8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about [him]; and [they were] full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.

What do you think?

from even looking at any theories of evoloution.

If Darwin is not just a theory , then Christians have a lot more to loose, they loose their reason to live and die - Is it simply too personal for them to consider objectively. I doubt that many would even dare to examine M-theory at all, it is far easier to stay at the edge of the pond and poke fun at Darwin, than to jump in and examine the real depths. But if you consider Darwin with any objectivity, then you are breaking you own created rule of gambling?
