Jesus is the final Word on all matters spiritual.

Well the chief priests didn't think so. At least they gave 30 pieces of silver for Him.

Actually "true" is simply a state in binary logic which can be applied to factual claims.

"Jerry", "AV", or "Jesus" are not factual claims, and therefore cannot be true or false.

exactly.

For my birthday party last may, I hosted a spoon bending party. all my friends gathered and brought spoons. basically we meditated for a while, focusing energy, then releasing it throough focused inattention.

some skeptics in the group kept laughing and interefering with the mediation, so it obvioulsy didnt work for them. But it worked for this other girl who before had practice with meditaion. the energy caused it to momentarily melt in the middle where her fingers where and she twisted it ever so easily.

heres some pics!







sorry if its too fuzzy.

But it just proves that maybe Jesus wasnt the only miracle worker.

Then let me translate it so YOU'LL understand it:

John 14:6 = JESUS SAITH UNTO HIM, I AM THE WAY, THE BINARY LOGIC, AND THE LIFE: NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER, BUT BY ME.

How was that?

That's a parlor trick that Uri Geller made famous.

Back in the mid '80s, I believe it was, there was a special on TV called, I think, The NBC Million Dollar Challenge.

On live TV, hosted by Bill Bixby, they brought into the studio 10 of the world's most renowned metaphysicians in 10 different categories.

The idea was that if any of the 10 could reproduce their craft, live and on the air, they would receive a check for $1,000,000.00.

I can only remember two of the ten:

The first was a lady who could "read auras". The studio had 10 horizontal panels about 6 1/2 feet in height set up. They "cleansed" the area above them with red light, then told the lady to take her time and, if she could pick them correctly, she would win the money. She thought for awhile, then said there was someone behind all 10 panels. She was wrong. There was someone behind 1, 5, and 7 (or thereabouts).

The last one was the world's leading dowsing expert. The studio put out 10 55-gallon barrels and told the man to pick which one(s) had water in them and which ones didn't.
He failed.

As a matter of fact, all 10 leading experts failed on live TV.

Between each session, they had people like Penn and Teller showing how you can fake getting burned in a restaurant and so forth.

One of the snippets was exposing how Uri Geller bent spoons and caused plants to start to grow from seeds in the palm of his hand.

Bill Bixby then did the very same things himself to show it was a hoax.

I, personally, in an adult class of 25 men and women, had them write a cartoon character and seal it in an envelop. I then, before opening the envelopes, shuffled them, then read each cartoon character before I opened the envelope up. I hit every one with a 100% accuracy. Only two people in the class knew how that trick was done, though.

That is, until I explained it.

People are very gullible in the area of metaphysics.

Is this passage fiction, Deut?
