The Truth is clearly taught by the Word of God contained in a book we call the Bible.

may be taught in a book 'some' may call the bible.

That may be the bottom line. etc. etc.

I couldn't be ass'd to go further into editing.

Nope, not Argentine. Italian/Irish, and the most punctual person you'll ever know.

What sort of reply is your post anyway? Did you misunderstand me?

Too subtle for you to grasp?

Maybe start with an Argentinian, and you might get somewhere. 😉

You have taken the correct position as any faithful follower of one's faith will take. Moreover, you have expressed your deeply held love and devotion towards Jesus, as a true devotee will undoubtedly do. All praise to you from a fellow devotee of God. You are a Bhakti Yogi (Devotee of God).John Ringland is a scientist trying to KNOW the REALITY by using the concepts like Virtual Reality which are concepts of modern science. He is a Dnyan Yogi(person following the path of knowledge). His views about organised religion are essentially true although a bit exaggerated.
