I have studied the word so intently very little 'church history' gets a pass, for the fact that it is church history. That is why I carfully worded my orginal response to this thread to support the biblically supported doctrine and not the 'history' of how that doctrine came to be.
@ Drich. So you're saying that you're willing to ignore any facts that get in the way of the bullshit doctrine you believe in. Drink up there buddy.
When I was a Christian I always wondered "If the church has such a glorious history, as it says it has, then why don't they teach it?" Yeah, they will suggest "Foxes book of Martyrs" and a general smattering of the daily life of an average Christian in Roman times but, aside from that little bit, there was always a big blank in the history.
I have studied the Bible and the theology behind Christianity for many years. I have been to many churches. I have walked the depth and the breadth of the religion and, as a result of this, I have a lot of bullshit to scrape off the bottom of my shoes. ~Ziploc Surprise
