Do you dismiss the practice of genital mutilation of infant boys? Or do you accept them as Jesus did? If you accept them aren't you in the wrong religion? If you do not why are you at varirance with the god you worship? Does the fact that Christians do not practice these rituals anymore make Judaism false?(August 14, 2010 at 3:47 am)Captain Scarlet Wrote: Godschild; you tie yourself up in so many knots. Either you dismiss religions because they are no longer practised or you don't. If you do then you have to account for why you do not dismiss all the evolutionary dead ends of Christianity including the original Jewish sect. If you do not dismiss religions on this basis then you have to explain why the 1000s of dead gods and their religions aren't equally as valid. Which is it?
The Jews still practice their religion and Christianity is still alive and well. The false sects of christianity have for the most part died out and the reason is simple they did not stand up to the scrutiny of Gods Word. As for all those dead gods how is it you think that they can have any validity against the living God of creation and redeemtion. No knots in my thinking or beliefs.
