James Cox replied to Simon Paynton's discussion 'Jesus died for our sins'"Yes, in a celebratory sense I think....emotacons would hardly touch my actually meaning....so how many lines can an atheist read between? "
James Cox replied to Simon Paynton's discussion 'Jesus died for our sins'"Thank you. Sadly I am still trying to clean up the resulting mess, atleast the oceans were not compromised..;p)"
archaeopteryx replied to Simon Paynton's discussion 'Jesus died for our sins'"Now THAT's what I call a fair exchange - I have often asked Professor Robert to be open about his own beliefs, but he prefers to ask ours, rather than reveal his."
Barry Adamson replied to Simon Paynton's discussion 'Jesus died for our sins'"Don't believe in it in the literal sense, which is how most take it.

Barry Adamson replied to Simon Paynton's discussion 'Jesus died for our sins'"Sounds to me like you still harbor an embedded belief of transubstantiation considering your awkwardness regarding the bread used in the sacraments. It also sounds that what was alien to you was the fact that these particular Lutherans lean…"
James Cox replied to Simon Paynton's discussion 'Jesus died for our sins'"I have been dating a rather charming gal that is a Lutheran. Yesterday, as a way to show my glassnost sensibilities, I went to church with her and, after a few hours of intellectual preparation previous, took communian. It was ok, they used a…"
Simon Paynton replied to Barry Adamson's discussion 'Self Realization v God'"Hey Reg - I'd say there are definitely stages to it, and once you hit the button, you enter a different world. After that, the journey just continues. Here are my latest thoughts on the subject. (You're fucking…"
