To describe your creed - and especially the way you arrive at it, and the intellectual feedback loop that feeds it - as "open minded" makes a mockery of what those words actually mean.

No offence intended.

You wrote "('John?', yeah, right!) claimed he said to him in a dream, "
Could you please reach down into your bag of scholarly and full familiarity with this book of Revelation and quote me exactly which verse says that John claimed to have had a dream ?
Thank you. Nice talking to you.
PS, your defense below to RObbie of "Whatever" is certainly irrefutable. Congradulations.

Enough. Thanks. I have made my point.
Originally posted by FMFLol, yes but were not buying it, for sure your talking pure mince, you are the duped one, a real life example of one so intellectually superior that he could not come to terms with a simple window licker and one or two scriptural references, moronic is an understatement!
QED yet again.
Enough. Thanks. I have made my point.
Originally posted by FMFlook me in the eyes FMF and tell me straight, you were trying to convince others that we (the religious) are moronic, were you not! if so, then you have failed, for the references we gave are sound and and the logic unassailable for as yet they completely refute your attempts to establish that we are indeed moronic, completely! i do not deny that we are capable misjudgment and are prone to human error, but to use the book of revelation and its acceptance as some type of litmus test is simply ludicrous, for its tenets are well established as are its credentials, you have in fact proved that the opposite is true, a disregard for the actual text being disputed on unsound and an unsubstantiated basis by individuals who have probably never read the text, is Moronic! it is truly a wonder to me, that these things are hidden from the wise and intellectual but revealed to babes and window lickers.
If you think it was, for even one moment, my intention to persuade or convince you of anything, then you have totally misunderstood all along.
Originally posted by FMFSo you had to prove to yourself that you are quite adept at ad homs.

Very impressive indeed, especially for someone so captivated by the Sermon on the Mount.
Originally posted by robbie carrobieI was also hoping that we could get more into the book of Revelation (particularly focusing on Jesus Christ).
Lol, i read them jaywill my friend and agreed with the sentiments, obviously your conscience kicked in and you felt some remorse and we must respect that.
Obviously FMF is not interested.
Praise the Lord, regardless.
