Biblical Christianity 101, a study of the book of Romans

[Drich]

Drich,
I admit I didn't read all of this thread, but I did read about half of it. Who are you to talk down to us?

Who is us?
I 'rebuked' one member of 'team rocket.' (Which is a Poke'mon reference btw/they thought themselves real smart too) Or are you saying you all have elected the other member of team rocket as your unoffical champion, kinda like the atheist version of goliath? By me challenging him (or one of his team members appearently) I have challenged all of you 'unwashed philistinies?' Otherwise again, who is this 'we?'

You yourself have admitted that millions of Christians do not subscribe to your particular brand of Christianity.

Maybe you should read a little more. We are not talking about my brand of Christianity we are talking about the validity of a so called expert and his incorrect citation of Acts 17:27-30 to show a supposed contradiction in a teaching of Paul in the book of romans. This supposed contradiction is his 'proof' that the two were not the same because the teaching on the one subject is vastly differnt. When a simple contextual reading of Acts 17:27-31 reframes and changes the meaning of the whole passage he misquoted thus realigning the teaching in acts with the teaching in the book of romans. which invalidates this 'expert's' claim and every arguement he bases off this failed observation. Namly the late date he ascribes to the book of Luke and Acts.

None of which has ANYTHING to do with my version of Christianity. What made me call Team rocket out and 'rebuke' them was their blind insistence that because this man was an 'expert' his expert-ie-ness superceeds any other fact. Which i pointed out to be a logical fallacy "arguement from Authority." Now I'm being attacked personallly for not bowing at the alter of atheist 'experts.'

Blind faith can be apart of my religion, and we are slammed when we practice it. Yet blind faith is supposed to be the all the 'thinkers' of soceity abandoned religion. Yet here we have an example of 'blind faith' in what team rocket believes, and I (A supposed non-thinker) am the only one pointing it out?!?

Yet somehow, you seem to regularly ignore this fact and accuse US of not understanding your version of the scriptures.  Meanwhile, you even point out that Paul wasn't doing the work of Jesus and was rather self-promoting.  

Not Paul, Saul. Before he took the name Paul, Saul hunted down and killed Christians so as to gain the respect of the Sanhedrian.

Why should we even bother listening to someone like you after all that?

Maybe, 'you' shouldn't if you entire investment in this subject is limited to a single page of dialog.

 I would wager you couldn't get 10 men from your own church to universally agree on the interpretation of your bible.  Yet there you are, speaking from a self-proclaimed position of authority.    

Again, cinny we are talking about the Need (my position) of validating experts, and what they say, verses Blind faith in what they say if it is what you want to hear (team rocket's position) not my particular take on religion.

I mean come on ... Does your god really need you here in your smug self-righteousness trying to convince us that we don't understand your religion?  

You are the iceberg to your own Titanic man.  After awhile we don't even bother taking you seriously.  Common Sense 101

Just to show you I am not out looking for oppertunity to make you all look bad for the sake of doing it I won't point out how far off topic you are in a bad way. I'll just say if you want to be a deeper part of this discussion, read a few more pages.
