Please note the sentence missing from the quote Ray has given today - verse 23.
"18 But God shows his anger from heaven against all sinful, wicked people who suppress the truth by their wickedness. 19 They know the truth about God because he has made it obvious to them. 20 For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God.21 Yes, they knew God, but they wouldn’t worship him as God or even give him thanks. And they began to think up foolish ideas of what God was like. As a result, their minds became dark and confused. 22 Claiming to be wise, they instead became utter fools. 23 And instead of worshiping the glorious, ever-living God, they worshiped idols made to look like mere people and birds and animals and reptiles." (stripped of all literary value so thickies can read it translation)
Why would you leave off the last sentence, Raymundo, huh? Tell me that, could ya? It's clearly the concluding idea of the fucking paragraph. Why miss it off? Why didn't you want anyone to see that bit of the idea, huh?
The pointless dweeb even quote mines the Bible.

Because Ray can interpret the writings any way he wants.
ReplyDeleteI hope Ray keeps quoting Paul. Paul said some crazy stuff which I love to hear Ray explain.
ReplyDeleteBaldy,
ReplyDeleteYou are a sharp cookie, in my book.
I have caught Ray at this in the past. Some of that scripture looks bullet proof....IF...one could just get rid of that one pesky word or verse.
Milo,
After my investigations on this matter it is obvious that Paul hijaked Christianity from the supposed charater, Jesus. He sure wasn't invited to the party and scholars separate him from the teachings of Jesus by referring to his writings as the "Pauline Doctrine," as opposed to the "Jesus Doctrine."
Yes, there is a monumental disconnect.
The bible shows very well that Paul never even met Jesus except in his supposed "visions," after fasting for 40 days.
Fasting is employed until this very day by Shamans who don't have a good line on hallucenogenic drugs.
Dale,
ReplyDeleteNotice how they quote Paul much more often than Jesus?
