If the OT has any truth to it, the suppression of paganism within
Israelite controlled territory went on for something like 800 years. To

Samaritans had the same status as tornado bait trailer trash do in
certain
circles in Arkansas. The kind Samaritan was the exception to the rule.

Jesus grew up in the boondocks, not the capital. Pagans were common,
even after nearly a millennium of Jewish repression. All the Jews did

Tenorlove,
Thank you for helping to clear the issue up about Mary Magdalene. I have
been doing some research and find nothing of such reference in the Bible
about her "profession". If memory serves me right, it was her mother who

Remember Rahab was supposedly a "harlot" which also had a very different
meaning in biblical times - for she was an innkeepers daughter.
She was also the one who hid the spies - also once some guy out of

For the record, nowhere in the Bible does it specifically say MM was a
prostitute. She is described as either a "sinner" without the specific
