    - The Rich Man and Lazarus -

    I am not confused, I am questioning the continuity when looking at various passages in contrast. I wanted to see what others gather from doing the same. I don't think there is a right or wrong answer. Just more observations from others maybe I can learn from.

    - The Rich Man and Lazarus -

    I am getting different messages in these various passages. The message of each passage is clear stand alone. Contrasting all these passages together I get a mixed message.

    Does anyone gather any continuity issues regarding Jesus and his messages and the new and old covenant in these passages?

    Then there is this passage. Finding these and pasting on this tablet can be a pain, please bear with me. Once again without my two cents, what does everyone get from these passages in a whole?

    I had wondered the same thing. I would think Abraham and Lazarus would have some compassion. Why would they appear to the already tormented man just to add to the torment? I never understood that as a kid or as an adult.

    - The Rich Man and Lazarus -

    I remember this bible passage from my childhood the most. I remember as a kid feeling frustrated by the rich man in this story but then felt bad for his outcome. My views on this passage since has layered and taken my thoughts to other than the moral of the story. Aside from the golden rule...

    Why do Westerns still hate Jews?

    I went to a Jewish school when I was a kid for a short time. Learned the Aleph-Bet and had some interesting experiences for someone who grew up Catholic. I rarely heard any anti-semitism growing up in the San Fransisco bay area. There is plenty of hateful morons in western society just like...

    Cannabis and violence, mass killings

    I smoke ganja on occasion and be rest assured, I wish to kill no one. :D I could kill a sandwich or two or possibly kill some time reading, possibly take a nap. I think it definitely depends on the person. It is most likely they had that brewing in them already. I seen nice people turn into...
