Post #393,988 by boxley 9/1/14 12:03:49 PM Reply	looking for answers about jesus in Paul's writing is like searching for the true meaning of god by following charles manson. Nothing he wrote advocated what is claimed to be what Jesus stood for, being a good jew. Any opinions expressed by me are mine alone, posted from my home computer, on my own time as a free American and do not reflect the opinions of any person or company that I have had professional relations with in the past 59 years. meep

Christ, click on Search and be done with it? :) Alex "There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." -- Isaac Asimov
Post #393,992 by Another Scott 9/1/14 2:54:57 PM Reply	:-) It's a fool's errand, but it's entertaining to see what people have come up with. Along these lines is the story of Emperor Jimmu - the "first emperor" of Japan. He just happened to unite Japan ~ 400 years before Qin Shi Huang united China. Imagine that! ;-) Even if quasi contemporaneous writing and evidence existed, it could still be suspect. Stuff written decades or hundreds of years later is almost always automatically suspect. Cheers, Scott.
