You DO "interpret omens".

"omen"
o·men
[oh-muhn]
noun
1.
anything perceived or happening that is believed to portend a good or evil event or circumstance in the future; portent.
2.
a prognostic.
3.
prophetic significance; presage: a bird of ill omen.

If you consider, having weighed in your mind, something to be Satanic, then you have "interpreted omens".

I said they are considered Satanic. Do I know them to be Satanic? No. Does Scripture know divination and sorcery to be Satanic? Yes

As far as interpretation of Omens. That's relative. Men of God told of what would happen in the future, interpreted visions, difficult scriptures, and dreams in the OT

Even YOU are not that stupid.
By definition, ALL "future predictions" ... by YOUR definition, ie "PROPHESY" is omen reading. What ? You can't read the definition of "omen" ?

If you disagree, tell us EXACTLY the difference.

His response will be something along the lines of biblical prophecy being divinely inspired. Therefore, holy.

I just don't say I can judge people to be retarted or their views to be false just because they disgust me.

I never said your views were false because "you disgust me".
Liar.
I said your bullshit about Mary's virginity was all based on ignorance.
I stand by that. You have not refuted that.
