I agree completely and you make an important observation that I had not completely considered.
My theological positions:

-God created us in His image, not the other way around.
-The Bible is redeemed by it's good parts.
-Pure monotheism, simple repentance.
-YHVH is LORD
-The real Jesus is not God, the real YHVH is not a monster.
-Eternal life is a gift from the Living God.
-Keep the Commandments, keep your salvation.
-I have accepted YHVH as my Heavenly Father, LORD and Savior.

I am inspired by Jesus to worship none but YHVH, and to serve only Him.

Welcome to 30,000.
I will never understand how someone who claims to know the ultimate truth, of God, believes they deserve respect, when they cannot distinguish it from a fairy-tale.

You know, science and logic are hard: Religion and fairy tales might be more your speed.

To continue to argue for the Hebrew invention of God is actually an insult to the very concept of a God. - Divine Insight

"Your point only stands when someone makes the assertion that God does NOT exist. This is more than atheism. This is a positive statement that needs to be backed up. I don't recall anyone here making that statement. If someone has, take it up with them, they do not represent atheism."

Exactly.

Thank you.
Everything you said there matches me. I too cried while searching desperately for God. I prayed and prayed and prayed and prayed...and got nothing.

At the risk of wearing out the welcome of the mpg, I love it when you quote the Bpkenkotter passage there...comes in handy quite often. Deserves emphasis.

*Wipes tears from eyes* That was beautiful. Simply beautiful.

Already 'liked' this but I'ma give it some stars too :p The gospels' report of wild rumours surrounding Jesus even during his own ministry is something I'd never considered before.
