Every year, just in time for Easter, the anti-Christians come slithering out of the woodwork. . . .

. . . it's as predictable as the swallows coming back to Capistrano, or the rednecks to Panama City . . .

( . . . keep yore cat-hats on, boys, I am a proud descendant of Alabama rednecks myself . . . )

I always say “You say redneck like it’s a bad thing.”

While walking on Easter morning, I looked up and there was a perfect halo in the sky overhead, never had I seen anything like it. Yes, he did.

About half the stuff in Foxworthy’s books has direct application to somebody in my family.

“To say Jesus’s bodily resurrection is a metaphor “is to lose the reality of God in the world,” Molnar said.”

And THAT is their obvious intent.

Josephus in Antiquities of the Jews Book 18/ chapter 3. (63) It says:

"Now, there was about this time Jesus, a wise man, if it be lawful to call him a man, for he was a doer of wonderful works-a teacher of such men as receive the truth with pleasure. He drew over to him both many of the Jews, and many of the Gentiles. He was (the) Christ; (64) and when Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal men amongst us, had condemned him to the cross, those that loved him at the first did not forsake him, for he appeared to them alive again the third day, as the divine prophets had foretold these and ten thousand other wonderful things concerning him; and the tribe of Christians, so named from him, are not extinct at this day."

It’s become as much an Easter tradition as the Easter Bunny. Every year they come up with a new twist. We found Jesus’ casket. We found a new scroll that says Jesus had 15 kids. We found Mary’s diaphram.

For John Spong to assert the ressurection as metaphor when the gospels are clearly historical narrative reveals a breathtaking depth of cognitive dissonance. In other words, he’s a God hating loon.

And the Washington Post is a venue in which one would trust either the motives behind the report or the content of a report on the subject of the resurrection????? I don’t think so.

Let them think anything they want. In the end, “every knee will bow.”

The debate for this millenia is over global warming and (A) whether Man is the CAUSE of global warming and (B) whether Man can do anything to alter future climate.

It may be made irrelevant by the OTHER debate for this millenia and that is whether muslims will see the error of their ways and cease centuries of global conquest in the name of Islam. Why not prove that Mohammed was not risen into the Heavens on a horse? Kill. that sacred cow.

Surprisingly fair article, given the source and the topic.

The fact that we are discussing it right now proves that he is alive.

Heaven and Earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. Mt 24:35
