This would also largely solve the abortion 'problem'. Paul D How can it solve the abortion problem.. people use ot as birth control, for financial planning, or kids who want free sex. and get caught.. .. All encouraged by a perverted teaching/government establishment. Last night I saw athe end of a TV episode at 6.30 pm showing 2 poofs getting married and having an adopted boy as this was perfectly natural and OK... When the brimstone begins to fall, and it will, you will remember this..

Philip M Some of what you say here I agree with; some here we are never going to agree upon. Here's a thought you may have considered or perhaps not. The population 'problem' is not caused by greed etc but by the low death rate. Before medicine intervened, the death rate was about 50% prior to puberty. If we were to suppress the practise of medicine, the population would trend towards its natural level and the balance be restored. This would also largely solve the abortion 'problem'.

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'. Paul D. 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 M 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. ----- Original Message ----- From: Paul Deema To: geocentrism@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, January 09, 2009 3:42 PM Subject: [geocentrism] Re: What went wrong to cause it. Peter C 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.
