Pork Chops

and Apple Sauce

May 10, 2014

I do not speak for all liberal Christians. Only myself

I believe in evolution

I do not believe the Bible is a science book or without error

If I say God bless you or your are doing the lords work to an atheist I mean it as a recognition of common values (if a person of a an animist faith told me they were praying for me in their own way, I would be honored)

I do not prosletize

I apparantly insulted some atheists by thanking my God for them as they share my values on social justice. Please accept my apologies.

I had a great exchange with Trotsy tonight and I hope to build on that.

I am a member of the LGBT community and for me Christ is important because he lets me know I am his child and accepted as such.

Anyone who has been offended by anything I have done, please forgive me.

Love you all,
Arely

Thst is all.

luke10: 25- 28

25 Then an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. He said, “Teacher, what must I do to get eternal life?”26 Jesus said to him, “What is written in the law? What do you understand from it?”27 The man answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your strength, and all your mind.’[a] Also, ‘Love your neighbor the same as you love yourself.’”28 Jesus said, “Your answer is right. Do this and you will have eternal life.”

pornography and erotica

What is the difference?

Lets have a real academic discussion. While anti porn folks and hard core free speech folks will certainly contribute. I am more interested in the opinions art scholars.

historiocity of jesus

Most modern scholars of antiquity agree that Jesus existed,[5][7][8] but scholars differ on the historicity of specific episodes described in the Biblical accounts,[12] and the only two events subject to "almost universal assent" are that Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist and was crucified by the order of the Roman Prefect Pontius Pilate.[9][10][11] There is a significant debate about his nature, his actions and his sayings, but most scholars agree that Jesus was a Galilean Jew who was born between 7-4 BC and died 30–36 AD,[13][14][15] that he lived in Galilee and Judea and did not preach or study elsewhere,[16][17][18] and that he spoke Aramaic and perhaps also Hebrew and Greek.[19][20][21]
