Assalam Aleikum bmzsp.

I am sorry for my absence. I have started a summer clinical which is keeping me busy.

I agree with you, and I often tire from seeing the programmed, slogan ready responses such as, "the targums and Jesus".

ma'salaama

Instead of believing everything the church tells you, perhaps you should actually study your bible without all the assumptions you have been forced to learn it with."

Andalus, I agree with that whole-heartedly. The problem is that instead of the Christians reading and scrutinising the Bible, you and I have to explain.

ARGH!!!!!  You're going to force me to start saying the Hail Mary right here and now.    Excuse me, please, while I go barf!

Blessings, Servie,

Thank you, BMZ.

 

It is a little known but soon to be published (by me) fact, Patty, that there was a purported heir, in the {keyword} sangreal, or blood line, but when he moved eastward from the Languedoc region of France and tried to trample upon the daisies in Vatican City, the Curia impaled him upon the Egyptian obelisk in St. Peter�s Square.  (That�s Chapter 11 of another in a series of my really bad American novels  .  Chapter 12, or, rather, the sequel, if somewhat predictably introduces the impaled heir�s younger brother.) 

 

Thanks for the recommendation, Fredi.  I didn�t realize that Eco�s novel deals with the themes.  I might try to locate a copy and read it.  Melikes Umberto!

i have not seen the da vinci code as it only comes out here later this week.  but i read the book in one day.  it is like an agatha christie mystery, nothing more, in my view.  if you like the templar/grail/esoteric connection, why not try "foucaults pendulum" by umberto eco?
for i am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth - romans 1: 16

BMZ,

 

Oh, now I understand.  Good one.  Please be advised that I do hereby disown all bold emphases, whether in this or any other thread (or quotation).

Servie,

Since the bold emphasis is your Intellectual Property, do I have permission to quote on other Islamic Site?

It will help the poor Muslims there who are daily bombarded with the compulsion subject!

Best Regards

Ali Baba, I got it but all the credit goes to Servie for digging out the verse, which is not an easy task.

Luke 14:23, says:"And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. [bold emphasis mine]� (Luke 14:23)"

Note: Bold emphasis is Servie's IP.

Best Regards

BMZ
