He was more obsessed with water, it seems. Walking on it, turning it to wine, having it spurt out of his torso when it was pierced with a spear. It's just like a rebellious son to choose something to directly confront his dad with. God used fire, and Jesus tried to put it out.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

As a Christian, or anyone from any religion actually, it's really easy to give interpretations of words and sentences in your so called holy book that make it SEEM as though it's talking about a specific thing, when it's clear to anyone who's mind isn't clouded by dogma and bullshit, that it can have hundreds of different meanings. It's not CLEAR. Show me one prophecy in the bible that everyone can agree means one thing. You can't, can you?

That's an interesting observation. Thanks for sharing it. Jesus was supposed to represent the Age of Pisces, which is fish in water.

Are you saying Jesus was a water mage?

Jesus was always playing tricks with water. He walked on water, turned water into wine. He was always fishing. Strictly speaking from a horoscope pov he was a Pisces. The Age of Aquarius is starting. Maybe we will get another holy man.

Why is Charles not in line for the throne?
Because he married a divorced woman. Iirc that makes ineligible to be the head of the Anglican church, and if he can't head of the church he can't be king. That's why they make a fuss of William even though most of the royal family manages to stay out of the public eye.
No;
Whomsoever holds the favour of Westminster shall be Monarch.
As it stands that is Charles, the status of Camilla has no effect on that.
Whether or not that continues to be so is down to how much he interferes in party politics. If he were to follow Edward VII's example then the politicians might seek to have him abdicate though no politician of the current generation seems to have the proverbials of Churchill.
