Sooner or later we all die. No biggy ziggy. Fortunately, this is one that I sure will not miss having around.

quote: ORIGINAL: Level quote: ORIGINAL: empresschaos ... wait... correct me if I misunderstand, but isn't Christianity a whole, big religion founded by people getting their jollies off someone's death? No, it isn't. That was simple enough....... Technically, no. Unfortunately there's a lot of nitwits that believe there's more importance about Mr. Jesus's death than there was about his life, and even more unfortunately they tend to be a noisy bunch that broadcasts all manner of weird things, drowning out the sane people who know better, and giving a false impression to those of us who are not members of that entire branch of religions. $0.02, Dauric.

Yes. Please do not lump us all in the catagory with Mr. Falwell was in. I personally could not stand the man.

domiguy -> RE: Jerry Falwell dies (5/15/2007 1:45:35 PM)
Yet in reality the only thing that sets Jesus apart from all other religious icons is his death and resurrection....Otherwise he would have been just another "good" dead guy.

Dauric -> RE: Jerry Falwell dies (5/15/2007 1:50:23 PM)
I think there's a difference between "Mr. Jesus" as a person who was alive, said and did some stuff, and died tragicaly; and "Jesus Christ" the myth. Sometime around 1999-2000-2001, there was whis whole scholarly dissection of the bible kick, couldn't change channels, or walk down a newspaper stand without something coming out about Christianity. One of the interesting things that I found at that time was an evaluation, by secular and clerical scolars, of all the passages that were attributed to Jesus Christ, and that only about a third of them could actualy be linked to Mr. Jesus (with an average of 90% certanty), and another third were 50/50 maybe he said it, maybe he didn't. That was when I started saying "Mr. Jesus" $0.02, Dauric.

[:D] I hope things are proving well with you too, Level. hugs, beverly LOL at "sellin hits"...... what's the oxygen for, sleep apnea or something similar? And when I said it's not possible to separate the two, all I meant is that a lot of the people who follow the spirit of what Jesus said and did also are a part of the religion, for them it's part of the same package. But yeah, there's plenty of people who mouth the words of Christianity, without living or caring about the heart of it, the kindness, compassion, hope and love of what Jesus was. Anyway, I get what you're saying, pretty lady.

Bearlee -> RE: Jerry Falwell dies (5/15/2007 2:05:06 PM)
Thank you Level... I told ya you were better at that than I am! You said what I meant... LOL Yeah... sleep apnea. Had blood oxygen level of 73% and only 80% on the damn machine. Apparently I just don't breath much!!! So...they added oxygen to the mix. Weird, if ya ask me... b

Hi Level!! I am sure the religious fanatics will have a new poster boy to replace Falwell in no time... so though the body is gone, the words will live on in another who is equally asinine, plus we have a bonus martyr. I think Falwell wasn't a good person, and one less of those in the world is a good thing as far as I am concerned. By the way.... how is Bill O'Reilly's health these days ?

Yes, fanatics usually don't give up, I think it's in their union rules or something. (Not a swipe at unionists, I was in a Local for years [X(]). Mr Bill is fine, I suppose, the last time I saw him was on youTube, yelling at Geraldo. The more I watched that, the more I wondered if they didn't set the whole thing up...... [8\|]

quote: ORIGINAL: AquaticSub Calling people "freaks" was mature? What would you call Liberal bible thumpers like Jimmah Cattah, Al & Tipper Gore, Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton, and so on - when so many Liberals openly hate anyone with religious views? If they're not freaks among their own then what are they. They certainly don't fit in... so yes, I'd say that not only was it mature, but it was accurate, too.
