    Urantia Book Questions

    Well, I believe the same things.

    Urantia Book Questions

    Sure. Watch it if you want. But I think a Mormon might be more interested in it. I really don't know. I don't know much about The Book of Mormon. I don't know if it's been prophesied or not. There are some statements, perhaps, in The Book of Mormon, that can be taken to mean The Urantia...

    Thanks again for your nice post. Looks like I'm outta here. "Proselytizer! Proselytizer" Rule #8!

    Jesus' Second Coming

    It's always been my understanding of that verse that "before Abraham" means waaaaaay, waaaaay before Abraham, back in Eternity times.

    You're preaching to the choir, here. Yes, religious people do reject "facts." But the facts they reject or the false facts they accept, of the kind you are talking about, are not religious facts or religious truths. Yes, I agree it's a problem, but they will either insist on their version, or...

    You stated your opinion. This is the rule, apparently: Stating opinions as a definitive matter of fact (i.e., without "I believe/feel/think" language, and/or without references) may be moderated as preaching." And YOU did this, exactly, when you said: "A religion has an overarching worldview...

    Such is your opinion, anyway. And apparently, on this forum, you are supposed to declare such factual sounding statements as being your opinion, or you "think," and so on. Some here, though not me, will threaten to turn you in to the authorities if you don't do that. In fact, this rule has been...

    Religion is not about archaeology, imo. In other words, even if the Walls of Jericho were found, that doesn't validate a religious belief such as Mary's alleged virginity or that Jesus died for our sins or that there even is a God. Those are all faith beliefs. I have seen some Christians try to...

    Just one comment. Regarding religion, what, or which things are "provably true"?

    I see. So when you say factually, "You need a lot more for it to be a religion." And when someone asks, "Like what?," you feel you can violate the same rules you threatened me with, is that right? Saint Frankenstein said: "Let me remind you of Rule 8 of the forum: "8. Preaching/Proselytizing...

    Yes, it's fine, imo. Whose problem is that?

    All I wanted to know in the first place is what you had in mind when you said, "You need a lot more for it to be a religion." My question was: Like what? You made a factual sounding statement, which you didn't qualify as being your opinion (and which apparently is a reportable offense here...
