I Have a Question About Christianity !!

A school of music that studies the rhythm of nature, a school of fashion that studies the elegance of the Universe, a school of design that studies the architecture of the ancients, a school of philosophy that studies the time-tested Truth.

Well technically he didn't found the Christian Church. Peter, Jesus's Apostle did. Of course it was all based on Jesus and what he did but he didn't start the religion

Ya'll got it wrong. I'm not looking to date this girl but I was a little thrown back by her reasoning. I do actually respect that but she is ok with talking and debating on the issue as I have actually asked her about it. She is fine and I'm not trying to change her mind. I 'm just intrigued that someone may go to that extreme you know.

You know TT, thats exactly what I told her and she agreed and then I pointed out that that same thing could also be related to friendship as well. She didnt have anything for it

Well I don't know about friendship. Jesus was friends with the worse people imaginable. He hung out with the tax collectors, prostitutes, fisherman, drunkards, and everyone you wouldn't think of. He wasn't unequally yoked with them. I think the verse is about

If you are talking about the different denominations, then there are some minor differences and emphasis but it's all the same religion. All Chrisitan denominations follow the same doctrine and believe the same thing. They are not all different

tax collector 1. I worked as a tax collector, for corporate reclaiming of regulatory fees.

prostitute 2. One of my best friends was a prostitute when she was 13, and left canada for Los Angeles. She retired from that work last year at 36.

fishermen 3. I'm from Louisiana, we all fish.

drunkards 4. Me and Adam put down a bottle of Jagermeister in less than an hour. Besides what else are you supposed to do when you fish (or play on computer)?

there, you hang out with the same kind of people as jesus,.. me, the worst kind unimaginiable. :wink:

Ok, you've got me there but back then, these people were untouchable. You were outcast in many cases for even talking to them. It's not that bad today

hehe, I'm sorry, that comment just sounded really haughty.

The true spirit of Messhiach is an acknowledgement of the innate beauty of every soul in every body of mankind.

and i know you know that, but still,.. i had to call a flag on that "worst humans ever imaginable" play.
