I can honestly see why someone would decide to just stop posting here. With people like you acting as you do, it's entirely understandable.

Why would anyone think Paul is less inspired? It is not as if he just walked down a road and ANOINTED himself...ohh snap..that is exactly what he did...

You know that how, exactly? Acts tells a very different story.

There are many on here that reject what you believe too and better still do not recognize you has some sort of authority on the scriptures. Sorry to break that news to you. It really is not what you believe, it's the lens you view God, mankind and the scriptures from that creates your beliefs that needs fixing. You see a bi sexual God sees himself in the bi sexual. Hope this helps.xx

We know what you are thinking by what you are posting, then you get all upset because disagree with what you are thinking. There is no reason to defer to me, everyone reading your posts are reading your thoughts. I repeat no one is bashing the scriptures, they are rejecting your understanding of them. I can understand why a lot of folk on here do not post too, they are sick to the teeth of the burdensome teaching of bible fundamentalists and their attemps to force it down their throats.

Why you are so worried about me having any authority in the first place, is a mystery to me. Sounds like a personal problem to me. Peace

Actually, just the opposite is true. I hear from lots that don't want to post because of the handful trying to force non-Christian beliefs down THEIR throats. Present company included. Peace

I feel the same way..hopefully one day the fundamentalists will recognize the err of what they have been told to believe.

NO one is trying to force "non-Christian beliefs" but I DO have to admit to trying to get them to THINK, which many seem to regard as non-Christian.
