The whole "confidential" stamp actually leads me to believe it's fake as shit


Well when the last 3 starters were announced and leak they had the confidential stamp too


I didn't think they did? The concept art sheet with Mallow?
I always assume when something has a big cartoon CONFIDENTIAL stamp on it, it's fake. I don't think companies actually print out classified documents to just leave around, thinking "oh but it has a confidential stamp on it. People will follow that."

that's not entirely true, it's just the Abrahamic faiths, and even then, the degree of his importance varies from 'interesting guy' to 'savior

Nah. It's not just Abrahamic ones. Many Buddhists revere him as a bodhisattva and Hinduism dictates it was possible he was an avatar of Vishnu (or maybe Krishna, I forget). I actually casually practice Buddhism, after I studied theology in college. It's really cool how many major religions have a lot of parallels in them

The Bible is pretty clear several times that it's not to be divided or changed, but then you say that part isn't important, because even though the Bible explains that you are not supposed to ignore it, you ignore that part of it.


You keep bringing this up over and over again despite the fact I keep reiterating that most Christians don't subscribe to biblical inerrancy. What else am I supposed to say?
I already addressed all your points in my last post and you keep asking the same questions, I assume because you just really want to have this AHA GOTCHA moment and are frustrated it's not happening, hence the necro-bump. I don't know what else to tell you, dude. Sorry I'm not a conservative Christian fundamentalist?

If you really want some insight on my personal point of view towards Christianity, look up some of Martin Luther's shit. Specifically 'simul justus et peccator' (which I have tattooed to my arm ) and 'grace through faith alone'.

I like that the commentator corrected himself after saying "too many men on the ice." And the lady announcer was "who cares, I say that so the time lol".

Why can't everyone be that cool.

Yeah it's a pretty bitter rivalry. It's a shame they don't let them fight in the Olympics like the NHL does.

I got a feeling though that this is gonna be a slow match cuz both teams are so evenly matched. Like, everyone loves a shootout, but this shits on late on the east coast lol.

Bump.

@ForestLogic, I'm genuinely curious. I'm not trying to fight you, I just don't understand what you are saying.


Look. I tried explaining this and we can't seem to get on the same terms for whatever reason, but I studied theology during my undergrad, so I can respect your desire to pick someone's brain on the subject die to studying Christianity yourself. (And again I apologise if I'm getting hostile but like I already said, it's incredibly frustrating to have your religion be accused of being too archaic because it's conservative, but then also hypocritical because it's progressive.) I'll try to organize this best as I can on a phone.

The Bible is not without err, we've established that. It says many things, much of which is contradictory.
So it's fair to say that not everything in it can be taken at face value.

The teaching that Jesus Christ is the Messiah does come from the Bible, yes, but of all the takeaways Bible, that story's pretty concrete. That's not up for debate. The Bible aside, Jesus existed as a historical person and is a pretty revered figure to many spiritual/religious groups outside Christianity. So it's fair to say Jesus was pretty damn special, though YMMV regarding how special depending on your religion or lack of.

Additionally what is not up for debate is the most important core belief of Christianity: the death and Resurrection of Jesus, and the significance of believing He's the Messiah. Once again, this isn't arguable, if you're a Christian. There's a million random scriptures and rules you can try and follow, but the big recurring theme is the concept that God let Jesus be crucified, and decreed that so long as you believe in Jesus and His sacrifice, you'll be saved/granted eternal life/however your want to interpret it.
So it's fair to say that regardless of anything else in the Bible, the belief in Jesus Christ's death and Resurrection is the basis and entire point of Christianity.

Believing in Jesus does not require you to take everything in the Bible at face value since we've established the Bible isn't perfect. I'm assuming your counterargument is "Then why take the story of Jesus as fact but not everything else." Well that's the issue you run into when trying to logicize religion. This is where religious faith comes into the picture, it can't be explained it quantified necessarily.
At very least, to try and put it into words, you can say the story of Jesus is probably the most consistent and most repeated theme in the Bible, and thus being more deserving of emphasis than 2 or 3 random out of context quotes about homosexuality or other controversial issues.
