Guest vivapadrepio@aol.com Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Jesus: A Cause Of Division. "Do not think that I have come to bring peace upon the earth. I have come to bring not peace but the sword." When Jesus finished giving commands to his twelve disciples, he went away from that place to teach and to preach in their towns. ----------------- Also read: Psalm 124: 1-8. Exodus 1: 8-14, 22. Quote

I can't for the life of me figure out why this has any relevance, except to prove once more that your imaginary friend is an asshole. Quote

Well looky here. The padre got one right. Way to go, padre. Jeebus belief has been dividing societies for millennia. The differences in cult dogma have been the cause of civil unrest, bigotry, hate crime, even the most bloody wars in human history.

You need faith and knowledge, as well as style and class. But for now focus on the first two. Quote
