Re: Knobhead
It's not a lobotomy that you require before you accept anything that Jesus offers. It's circumcision. And that of the (thankfully you might say) spiritual kind.
Well you can have your spiritual circumcision to go with your spiritual labotomoies.
To do so would be to be irrational.
Ian, Christianity is most irrational and illogical belief system there is. It is utterly devoid of reasoning and has so many errors in its premises that I could drive a Guiness cart through them.
In order to take Christianity seriously, you really need to have had some sort of psychological trauma, there's no other explanation for it.

Re: Speculation about Jesus impulses
but it is my preferred belief..
Why is that your preferred belief?
Do you have a problem with Jesus humping a few Jewish princesses?
If Jesus was a man, then he had male urges. If I was God in a human suit there's hardly a woman on the planet that would be safe!

Re: Speculation about Jesus impulses
He wanted....its the whole idea of duty to Father and mission in life sorta thing.
Yes, but when did His mission start?
We know nothing about Jesus between the ages of 12 and 30, so anything could have happened.
We know, as a boy, it was said that Jesus could get as angry as any other child could, except that there were more serious consequences. When Jesus got angry as a boy He killed other children, one of whom had only bumped into Him. So we see He misused His divine powers several times, so as a spotty teenager I can imagine Jesus having a grand old time.

Re: Not Fair Brian
Life's not fair!
But at least he now knows the child Jesus was not to be messed with.

Re: What in the world are you trying to say?!!!
I'm not doing back-of-a-cornflakes-box theology today. Sorry.
Why the sudden change?

Re: What in the world are you trying to say?!!!
our friend Gen spend innumerable hours trying to twist it into something that sounds better.
I wonder what has happened to our friend Gen. S/he seems to have disappeared around the time s/he was asked to provide biblical support for a few things.
Maybe s/he has realised that the Bible is a little more complex than first thought.

Not so 'genned up'
I was wondering about the same thing. He/she disappeared right after I pointed out that his/her answer to my question was a total dodge and did not really answer the question at all.
Which coincides with my request for the references to support that some Egyptians put blood on their doorposts and were thus spared the cull of the first born of each Egyptians family, and that request for the reference that the Egyptians had a choice.
If anything, he/she seemed to have implied that Jesus condones the cold blooded murder of innocent little infants and toddlers.
Of course the Bible states quite explicitly that the God of the Hebrew Bible (which really isn’t Jesus) was a barbarian, but these Christians, for one reason or another, don’t accept what the Bible says about this. I can only assume that they haven’t read the Bible and they are shocked to discover that it doesn’t say what they would like it to say.
Gen’s reference that some Egyptians put blood on their door posts is quite a nice thought if you are a Christian, but it isn’t in the Bible. I hope that Gen hasn’t disappeared because of this error as we all make mistakes now and again, all I wanted was for Gen to admit that S/he had made a mistake and we could have moved on. But, I suppose after setting one’s self up as some sort of expert, it must be difficult to acknowledge that perhaps you don’t know as much as you think you did.
But I guess it is too much to ask for a straight answer from a christian these days...
Indeed, and some are happy to tell bare faced lies in order to sustain their delusion about what the Bible says.
Oh well, not to worry, I am sure another Christian Bible ”expert’ will come along soon.
