T O P I C R E V I E WPixieJanexPixieJaneI'm not sure how it happened, but it looked as if the Thorn rune appeared in the title of this thread! That's remarkably fitting, or one heck of a coincidence. My rune lore is rusty, but here's what I quickly found: http://www.runes-for-health-wealth-love-now.com/rune-thorn.html http://www.midnightmoonchild.com/moonchildthirdrunepage.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZXlCY2uTxY http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorn_(letter) RegardesPlatero-Ami AnneOh My GoodnessI got the chills reading your story. The Bible says God is love. I am not saying The Bible is your book but I did want to tell you that sentence is in there.------------------Passion, Lust, Desire. Check out my journal http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/RandallYou are so articulate, Regardes. I love reading your posts.That's really weird about the Rune symbol!------------------"Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you." Rebecca ClarkAmi AnneI know about the Jews killing Christ.People who hate the Jews use this as a reason. Jesus HAD to die as a sacrifice for all men. These people miss the whole story but hate will do that to you lol------------------Passion, Lust, Desire.

Lexxigramer quote:Originally posted by The only thing that I don't like is that she believed that Jesus was killed by Jews (he was actually killed by the Romans), ....Whoa there.In the stories it is the Jews who want his death, and blackmailed Pilate into allowing it.If Pilate had said no to the Sanhedrin and Priests and the strict Jews,they would have lynched him (Pilate).The Sanhedrin trial of Jesus refers to the trial of Jesus before a Jewish Council following his arrest in Jerusalem.Jesus is then taken to the high priest's house where he is mocked and beaten. Jesus is generally quiet, does not mount a defense, and rarely responds to the accusations, but is condemned by the Jewish authorities. The Jewish leaders then take Jesus to Pontius Pilate, the governor of Roman Judaea, and ask for the death sentence.So yeah the Romans did crucifying...but in that case it was indeed the Jews demanding he be executed,not the Romans.RegardesPlateroI hate, though, how for so many centuries, Jewish people were hated (and still are, sadly) because (some) Christians believed that they were these evil people who killed Jesus. I don't like it when any religious group uses religion as an excuse or rationale to terrorize another group. I really hate it especially when Christians do it, because it's so un-Christian and frankly it's deeply shameful. Lexxigramer quote:Originally posted by RegardesPlatero: When I said "killed by the Romans", I meant literally, but I see your point. Thank you.It does matter as to who wanted him executed. quote:Originally posted by RegardesPlatero:I hate, though, how for so many centuries, Jewish people were hated (and still are, sadly) because (some) Christians believed that they were these evil people who killed Jesus.Some Jews were, that is even in the Bible, but not all Jews were guilty.Just as not all folks now condone the evil deeds of their clergy/churches or political leaders. quote:Originally posted by RegardesPlatero: I don't like it when any religious group uses religion as an excuse or rationale to terrorize another group. I really hate it especially when Christians do it, because it's so un-Christian and frankly it's deeply shameful. Yet happens constantly. Wars are usually religion based, as is race hatred and homophobia etc. quote:Originally posted by RegardesPlatero:Also, I know that you said that you didn't wish to discuss your earlier post, but I just wanted to thank you for your honesty and for sharing your perspective.Thank you. I am not against folks believing what they desire,but the preaching and flaunting it constantly is disrespectful to any not of their faith.Why must non Christians be subjected to the constant bragging and displays of in essence;"look look see see I AM A CHRISTIAN"with the thinly veiled subtext that being a Christian means they are above non Christiansand non Christians are damned.I do not go about wearing in essence a banner or tag, proclaiming that I am not a Christian.Same for pagans and so forth.It is usually Christians bragging or showing off.And yes there are good folks who are Christians.These folks do not rub it in others faces every chance they get.They live and let live and mind their own business when it comes to being Christian,and help folks and do not hate folks who are not Christians or who are gay or whatever.Some of the kindest things I have known have been from Christians......unfortunately the most horrific and that means all the abuses from mistreatment to bloody beatings and rape,have been at the hands of good Christians using their so called good book to justify their wrongdoings.The KKK is a prime example of rabid hate filled Christians.And well,even Christians of different denominations make war on each other and kill and bomb each other.It gets even more insane when we take in account that Jews, Christians, and Muslims all following the basic same Old Testament.They generally hate each other and war on each other.Well go figure since the LORD God from second Genesis onward in the Bible,condoned and even ordered mass murders, rapes, and worse.(first Genesis God is not the same entity)Yes the following is indeed in the so calledgood book(s).It amazes me how they deny these things are there, or worse, try to justify it all. http://www.nobeliefs.com/DarkBible/DarkBibleContents.htm
