Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise.
"Before I formed thee in the bowels of thy mother, I knew thee: and before thou camest forth out of the womb, I sanctified thee, and made thee a prophet unto the nations." Jeremias 1:5
Oh, I forget...Some of you guys don't spend enough time in the scriptures to know that like God, humans have a body, a spirit and a soul...We were made in THEIR image...
And again;
Gen 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
And even tho you can't figure it out, that doesn't disqualify the verses you guys posted...
Do you think that Christianity is some kind of clever puzzle that you have to "figure out," so you can pat yourself on the back while you congratulate yourself on how much smarter you are than the poor, stupid Catlicks?
That's what tradition is for, see. It's admitting that people other than Iscool are guided by the Holy Spirit and can make sense out of those passages that are "hard to figure out".
See how clear it can be:
"do not murder a child by abortion or kill a newborn infant" -- The Didache, circa AD 80.
Simple. Correct. And Biblical.
