    Christian: Apostolic Succession

    You introduced a point that a tradition which does not have true apostles ought not make claims of apostolicity. My counterexample asserts the equal dubiousness of claims of priesthood without the sacrificial elements marking true priests. Because even my invitations to debate (which must...

    Christian: Apostolic Succession

    Since when is a counterargument in the debate section of RF a "troll" ?

    Christian: Apostolic Succession

    By the same token, I don't think it's possible to have an Aaronic Priesthood without animal sacrifices.

    Christian: Apostolic Succession

    Rome has declared Anglican Holy Orders null and void, so presumably, if Lutherans are grafted in, they inherit this nullity.

    What are ghosts?

    Oh, and bypassing the opinions of experts in the field is somehow more objective? Nature has been published since 1869 and has a certain prestige and track record to maintain. Science is a gigantic house of cards, and it would be dire indeed for scientists to build a whole career on someone's...

    Questions for Mormons

    No big deal, anyone who is pro-death penalty, even non-LDS, believes in blood atonement. This is what the families mean when they say, "Why doesn't the State hurry up and execute him? We need closure."

    Has anyone approached you about helping to make a "Hotties of RF 2008 Calendar" ?

    Gay adoption is good for children

    Unfortunately, this is how we were told to communicate via stone: Numbers 15: [32] And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered sticks upon the sabbath day. [35] And the LORD said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: all the congregation...

    The Communist Front, I mean the ACLU

    Because there are 76.9 million Catholics in the US, and we vote.

    What are ghosts?

    When I see the paper on ghosts published in Nature I'll believe. But I'm turning blue holding my breath waiting for the Intelligent Design paper.

    Was there a 1st religion, and how did it start?

    I have just as much evidence that God came and taught Scientology to Adam and Eve (i.e. none).

    How important is tradition?

    What if getting "stuck in the past" means living life the way Jesus showed us, 2000 years in our past?

    Jesus (Yeshua): God, Son of God, A Prophet, The Messiah, Not Sure, None of the Above

    Yeah, we are always basing our Calendar systems on Before Joe Schmoe (BJS) and Anno Joe Schmoe (AJS, the Year of Our Schmuck).

    Religious decisions.

    Following God means performing works of law. Romans 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

    What's the Point of Deism?

    The Deist God is a better designer than the Theist one. He doesn't have to keep coming down here to make corrections, personally.

    If God Loves Us All...

    He's like the rest of us, he doesn't ram forgiveness down people's throats. They have to ask for it first.

    1+1+1 = 1 ?

    Gosh, I wonder how this overzealous trinitarian obtained access to all the bibles?
