I guess it all comes down to whether or not you've read the bible, or are you just constantly thwarted solid exegetical reading of it. (because you haven't read it and just assume you are smarter than those who wrote it
Oh, I've read it sport. Cover to cover. It really comes down to being honest and distinguishing what you want it to say and what the words say. Take away the presupposition and the emotional baggage and it shows itself for what it really is.
So you just 'forgot' about that "loop hole?" Or rather the reason Peter Gave to those who asked about Christ in the same way the OP did? Hw is that a loop hole again??

Guess you couldn't wait to give a cop out resonse so you had to generate your own opportunity... Good job!
So are you saying the priest in the example was an atheist or are you just calling Regina a liar?
What's there to interpret this time around? The OP asked a question that was asked of peter in the BCV I left and I simply pointed to His (peter's) answer.
If you read the bible then surly you read this passage. Again it starts out with the same question started in the OP and Peter a deciple of Christ answers it directly. Again why would you need anyone to tell you how to interpret that?
