| superchunk said: 1. That isn't Jesus speaking. 2. Read my post above about this verse. 3. Yep, picked Ethiopians incorrectly. But, a quick search for nontrinitarian christians will reveal several others. Wikipedia page has a nice list. 4. If Romans did change important dates like these, what else did they change? 5. Of course there are differing view points. If everyone believed what I believe there would be no X360. |
1) It doesn't matter.
2) I read it.
3) Yes and the oldest of them was founded in 1830.
4) The birthday of Jesus is unknown, and no, it isn't important if He was born on the 25th of Dec. or 6th of Jan. None was ever excommunicated for saying that.
5) This was the only argument on topic of the whole derailment of this thread. So I explain it better: if Grand Mufti "A" says "bombing western buildings is wrong", but Grand Mufti "B" says "bombing western buildings is just", a follower of "B" can bomb as he wish and, what's more important, he's a good muslim for both "A" and "B", because none of them is more authoritarian than the other (this is valid for sunni, while shi'a and other Islamic sects differ). This is radically different from religions with a determined central authority that dictates what's good and what's bad.
