Re: Absolutism versus relativism
Since you are so interested in asking questions of others, I was wondering if you could answer a few of mine that so many are so reluctant to answer. It would definitely help to move not just this discussion, but indeed all discussions here to move forward.
Which version of the Bible is the one true word of God? See Message 1
Of the over 30,000 Christian sects, which one using the exact 'word of god,' is the correct one according to this supposedly 'universal' Christian doctrine?
Personally, I don't think any batch of quotations from any version used to back any assertion are worth squat in any discussion until these questions are answered.

The idea of the sacred is quite simply one of the most conservative notions in any culture, because it seeks to turn other ideas - uncertainty, progress, change - into crimes.
Salman Rushdie
This rudderless world is not shaped by vague metaphysical forces. It is not God who kills the children. Not fate that butchers them or destiny that feeds them to the dogs. It’s us. Only us. - the character Rorschach in Watchmen
