Blondie, what translation of the bible do you use? Also, do you know any Greek or Old Hebrew, so that you may personally translate original manuscripts?
Wow , after all this time being away from the forums Blondie still thinks he/she knows what is actually in the Bible.
The original language the manuscripts were written in actually have quite a bit of things different then what you would read in the English. Blondie uses a translation of a translation of a translation. Epic Fail.
I am a Christian and I know the Earth is billions of years old. The Bible speaks of this fact.
All in all , be what you want to be , believe what you want to believe. Its your walk through this life. Blondie I really wish you could get it through your thick head you are doing more bad than good.You are pushing people away from Christianity by telling them things that simply are not true.
As far as men in this world , they might have been self proclaimed Christians but you can't blame that on Christianity or God. They were just stupid men.
Besty I absolutely applaud you for your post women are not meant to be trophies, most have a stronger backbone in character and personality than the majority of men. As far as the opinion of a "soul" , I think the stronger souls are women. Plenty of examples in the Bible about women being a better teacher of the Word.
Nice to read all of the comments , it was entertaining
Your bible also uses Jehovah in places where they have admitted this translation is incorrect. That is tailoring your translation to your belief system.Incorrect, you consuse yourself with what i say. And misinterpret what the scriptures say. You look at one scripture and draw a conclusion on it without considering other verses. I interpret a scriptures meaning by comparing it with other scriptures and even other translations.
Some may say the main translation of the Bible that Jehovah's Witnesses use is changed to fit what we want to believe. Incorrect.
Although we use the New World Translation more than other translations. we compare wih others, and see if we get the same meaning from a scripture.
Here's my opinion: if one interpretation of a scripture fits one translation and not another, then it wouldn't be the right interpretation.
However, if an interpretation fits several translations, then wouldn't that one be the truth?
And also, No other Bible except the New World Translation uses "Jehovah" in over 7,000 places in the Hebrew scriptures. To me, that would seem like a very large flaw.
But unless someone will actually pose a decent question, im done with this forum. All that's here is prejudiced and religion bashing.
It was fun!
Religion is bull-crap, and so's the bible.I read the Good News Bible. It has notes regarding which part might have been interpreted otherwise, so its quite nice. I have to agree upon the fact during the course of translation there might be some misunderstandings
I understand that some people do not believe in religion. Its a sad truth to some but as we believe you all got a choice. All I ask is, even if you're disagreeing religion, Christianity, as this thread is base on, you can put your words nicely. Leave conflicts in the region of facts, not wordings ^^
Expand, please.....one day ALL knee's will bow and ALL tongues' will confess that Jesus Christ is LORD, so just make sure you put your Faith in what Jesus Christ did on the Cross.
. . .
I just said even if you disagree so you can do so more politely.

Why don't you politely show that book of lies up your backside?

If that's the way you expect people to believe in you you're a complete failure >.<
It interests me where you gained such a strong, ah, hatred for religions. Forced to go to the Church when you're a child perhaps?
I kind of expected your post to make some sense, but I saddened to say your incoherent rambling does not. If you had however managed to succesfuly string together a sentence we could have had a debate.If that's the way you expect people to believe in you you're a complete failure >.<

That's already taken by a certain Blondie14.And to say what you just said here, has got to be the biggest fail on the forums.
