Asunto: Luke 2:6–14
Tuesday:

And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Asunto: Re: Luke 2:6–14
Tuesday: And your point is? The rule claiming that a sentence should not be started with a conjunction is a myth. As well as the God… But I should at least give you some credit for being successful in changing the topic in just one post.

Tuesday: So I got an F from someone who thinks English sentences should never start with a conjunction. Funny.

Tuesday: Of course they aren't sorry. If they were, they wouldn't have edited the part out in the first place…

Asunto: They want to please the people who want to change America and what it originally stood for.

Tuesday: Well, not really. The words "under God" weren't added to the Pledge until 1954 during the communism scare. Some of our founding fathers warned of the danger of using religion to govern. Just because the majority of Americans believe in some sort of God doesn't mean that upholding the separation of church and state is changing what America originally stood for. Just the opposite, actually, no matter who tries to rewrite history and deny the Constitution. That said, editing the broadcast was silly.

P.S. I have a degree in English and I think starting sentences with conjunctions and ending sentences with prepositions are wonderful practices. :)

Asunto: Re: Luke 2:6–14
Tuesday: I can not see the logic in a statement that someone who does not believe in God is angry that someone they don't believe in won't sort their problems out. I would have thought it was a case of accepting responsibility for your actions because there was no higher power to rely on.

Justaminute: That is sorta said by Jesus. God isn't your servant to be used willy nilly.

Tuesday: I don't think God is going to get upset over the mention or non mention of a man made phrase.

Asunto: Re: I'm not sure if he would get upset or not,
Tuesday: 'He' being upset, as to say that 'He' would get upset over whether a name we humans made up is used or not used doesn't ring true. I would have thought Job and indeed Christ talking about turning the cheek or forgiving those who crucified his material incarnation (Jesus) would clarify that point.

"but taking him out of everything is going to leave us vulnerable."

How? We are not talking about statues of God's as per say..... the Greeks and Romans. Or (again as per say the Romans) "house Gods".

Asunto: Re: You're probably right. It 's an individual thing I guess.
Tuesday: Yes and no. Some will be the way you are 'told' God works by others. They just don't say that half that time that is to just preserve the validity of their way of thinking from pure "righteousness" ...... yet not state that even the "righteous" sin and make errors.
