Travis I suggest you read the whole thread if you think for a minute I was making light of Christianity. Quite the contrary, I am a believer and a minister. I just don't think that David meant anyone any distress. I think he made a parody of the subject in part to see what kind of reaction the comm

You left out alot David. It was Jesus Christ . And he arose from the dead so that sinners like you and I could have eternal life. If we repent of our sins and except him as our savior. Through Gods grace we are saved.  On Friday, March 30, 2018, 2:50:51 PM CDT, David wrote: Just for f

It ain't religion boss. Haven't been to church in 40 plus years. Its a way of life. Sorry it makes you uncomfortable but it is no reason to chastise David. For the record it's a free country.

Charles, there was no reason to drag religion into my story about The Shroud of Turin having been in a cave. And there was no reason to call me one of those atheist. I doubt that I am an atheist. I am just really weird. I have seen things - unexplainable things. I have had 8 close calls with

Too set the record straight, Easter is a pagan event known as Eshtar. Celebration of fertility and all things new that the Spring brings. It was an orgy of decadence and debauchery. Many Christian events took the dates of pagan celebrations. It is Palm Sunday to the Christian which begins the cele
