You understand that people here have their religion insulted constantly, right? Most people who get offended usually have the restraint to let it go, especially people like penguino who gets constant misunderstood and ignorant statements about Hinduism. It happens to me as a Christian; people insult Jesus, but I don't go crazy on them.

the other meaning of the word 'analogy' is also 'comparison'.....now ur analogy is such.. but my analogy is like this....so analogy actually is a personal perspective.......understanding god through analaogy in my opinion is ridiculous....it doesnt serve any purpose.........god didnt say unserstand me through ur analogy......
Analogies don't serve to lower the subject. They help to create understanding in a context that is simpler to understand. If someone can then understand the prinicple behind the analogy, they can transfer a similar understanding to the subject of which they could not understand to begin with.

I'm hardly saying God's importance is directly correlated to the value of human organs.

abusing a dead man makes little sense.....but correcting some1 whos spreading a wrong message in alive state makes more sense to me.........
Again, tolerance. You can say you disagree with me. Not that I'm wrong, I insult your faith and you start putting words in my mouth.

I believe your faith is wrong. So perhaps I should attack you or anyone who has even a slightly different view to mine?

But you don't believe that Christ is the Son of God, you think he is God. and you believe int he Trinity so how can you be a "Christian" when the entomology of the word comes from the name "Christ."

But you don't believe Christ was Christ the Son of God, you believe Christ was God. so wouldn't you be a "Godian" if not a "Trinitarian?"

Like I said, you really need to look up the definition of prostitution.
By your definition, marriage is prostitution.

Others agreeing with your opinion does not make your opinion anything more than an opinion.

"The next day the older daughter said to her sister, I slept with him last night. now let's get him drunk again tonight, and you sleep with him. Then each of us will have a child by our father. So that night they got him drunk and the younger daughter had INTERCOURSE with him ...
"In this way both of Lot's daughters became PREGNANT by their father.
" GENESIS 19:33-35 (From the "Good News Bible- In Today's English").
In the older Versions, like the King James and the Roman Catholic Versions, "SEXUAL INTERCOURSE"
is vaguely described as "COLLECTING THE SEED OF
OUR FATHER."
The father was drugged and then taken advantage of.
Who is doing the "allowing"?

GENESIS 35:22.
The older Versions of the Bible, use the word, "lay" for SEXUAL INTERCOURSE.
And where does this say that they were mother and son?
Do you know what a concubine is?

g loss.} She said, what will you give me?" (To have sex with me) 'He answered,
I WILL SEND YOU A YOUNG GOAT FROM MY FLOCK "
She said, "All right, if you will give me something to keep as a pledge until you send the ,goat. ' . . He gave them (the pledges) to her. Then had INTERCOURSE, and she became pregnant GENESIS 38: 15-18 (Quoted from the ''Good News
Bible"). CONCUBINE and WIFE are synonymous terms in the Bible. Look for it in the index under ''KETURAH" (the third wife of Abraham). Out of this incestuous relationship between a father-in-law and his daughter-in-law, twins were born, who
were destined to become the great-grand-fathers of Jesus Christ see Matthew 1:3;
"And Judas begat Phares and Zarah of Thamar . . .
unless you can present something that shows these IN LAWS are blood related, it is not incest.

He raped her.
How is this "allowing' again?

father's concubines " 2 SAMUELS 16:22 ". . . In the sight of every one" is rendered in
the King James Version as "in the sight of all Israel." This is a fulfillment of God's promise to David the King:
"Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee (David) out of thine own house, and I will take THY WIVES before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbor (actually thy son) and he shall lie (have sexual intercourse) with
thy wives in the sight of sun (for the whole world to watch the fun).
For thou didst it secretly (with Bath-Sheba the wife of Uriah): but I will do this thing before ALL Israel, and before the sun." 2 Samuel 12:11-12
There you are with that word concubine again.

To each there own.

What I find interesting is that you felt the need to present anything more than the verses address.
Seems it was merely for the appeal to emotion.
