The explanation is in the answers to the questions.  They will be forthcoming today along with scripture references to prove them.  You may be surprised to find that some of the "Biblical" things people believe have no biblical origin, just stuff that our parents heard from their parents, who heard it from their parents, ad nauseum.   That is the reason why I am on a one man crusade to rip the three wise men from every manger scene.  I may team up with Marlin and we will have a joint effort to save the world from goofy ideas.   Stay tuned.

Cute test, Terry.  Was the last question supposed to be, “Was there a Christmas tree all lit up with presents underneath when the wise men arrived at the manger?”  J  I’m still wondering how we are supposed to figure out which myth/story explains the REAL origin of the Christmas tree.  And do you think there will be Christmas trees in heaven? Somehow I just can’t picture it, but oh, well… Izzy   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Terry Clifton Sent: Saturday, December 06, 2003 10:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [TruthTalk] TEST   Your attention please.
