That is not to say that the temporal values will be lost or abandoned. They
exist in non Christian non Jewish non Islamic -- lumped together as pagan I
suppose -- societies anyway. The values I speak of are utilitarian and will be
discovered by any society eventually with or without 'divine revelation'.

This is not so Paul, based upon your own false concepts or those on whom you
have faith by consensus.
Not even the most pagan of societies destroyed their offspring in the way that
this "antiChristian reaction against Christ" society is doing. You justify it
as "The values I speak of are utilitarian " .Because perhaps you believe this
false science and economy is correct in claiming this world is overpopulated..
The reality is that all of these millions of abortions are entirely due to a
hedonistic society bathing in pleasure whilst denying to accept any
responsibility for the cost or consequences. Pure selfish greed. Saving the
planet never enters their mind.
Only a healthy fear of an eternal Hell keeps people moral., and even that is
tenuous.
Philip.

I missed the incongruity you highlight. Caught me he did. However I counter
with the observation that many words in language are contractions of earlier
expressions. Contemporary example (in advertising commercials) " ...
Australia's favourite air! " (For those not living in this fair land -- for air
read 'air conditioning'). Also "Put it in the microwave for 30 seconds," or "I
saw it on the television." Microwave receiver? Television transmitter? I think
you get the picture.
The council of Nicaea interests me because it is the forum which gave such
weight to the views of Paul the Roman while sidelining Luke the Greek and
others. It is from such random events that history is made and religious dogma
develops. Had Luke et al been more politically acceptable in a Roman world,
surely Christianity today would be quite different.
For the record, I'm not an "... antiCatholic antichrist, antiGod self
confessed athiest ... " as you say. You would be aware of the difference
between passive and active support for a given action. 'Anti' implies active.
Somewhere in my memory of Sunday mornings, there is the recollection of a
homily which drew attention to ... Jesus said "If they are not for us they are
against us," and at another time ... Jesus said "If they are not against us
they are for us." I just think that as people become better educated, more
widely read, they will see religion for the invention that it is and support
for it will decline further till eventually it will pretty much lose its
influence in the world. That is not to say that the temporal values will be
lost or abandoned. They exist in non Christian non Jewish non Islamic -- lumped
together as pagan I suppose -- societies anyway. The values I speak of are
utilitarian and will be discovered by any society eventually with or without
'divine revelation'.

Oh how they hate the Cross... Shame on you Paul. They , even Rome, who would
help promote the lies, any lie, to change the tradition of a cross support the
Jewish High Priest, who denied He was the King of the Jews.. There is no
evidence other than some writings which need not be valid, to support your
charge. Some even call the cross a tree.
All of the scripture you quoted contradicts your final assertion,
"It was written on a board and nailed to the crossbeam above Jesus' head
giving rise to the erroneous notion that He was hung on a 'cross'."
read it again... "And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. ..."
Not the crossbeam..
Its strange to me that you an antiCatholic antichrist, antiGod self confessed
athiest suddenly leaps to the defence of a jew loving, jew supporting
antiCatholic Pope.. ????Or is it? not so strange after all.
Nice to know you are reading all our religious stuff.. Hope for you abounds.
You should revisit your catechism, before these protties get you... lol....
In geocentrism's name,
Philip.

As I understand it, the Romans crucified people by attaching the condemned
to a cross beam which was then placed on top of a pole. That was all that was
needed, and it cost less. If they wanted the condemned to linger, a seat and/or
footrest was sometimes provided.
When Jesus was crucified, Pilate "... wrote a title and put it on the cross
... "
19:19 And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing
was JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.
19:20 This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was
crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and
Latin.
19:21 Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The
King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews.
19:22 Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.
(King James Bible, John)
Today this is given as INRI -- the Latin initialism for
IESVS·NAZARENVS·REX·IVDÆORVM (Jesus Nazarenus, rex Judæorum). It was written on
a board and nailed to the crossbeam above Jesus' head giving rise to the
erroneous notion that He was hung on a 'cross'.

I read that when the Jews where kicked out of Spain, the Sanhedrin told
Jews to convert to Catholisism, in order to subvert it.
The current Pope looks rather Jewish with his skull cap, ephod for the 12
tribes of Israel, and notice that his crucifix is now a blatent " T ", not even
pretening to be a cross but the sacred T of the Sun God Tammuz who the Jewish
Women used to weep over.
