The Politically Incorrect Guide to Catholicism

In Gen. 3:15, who is the “seed”, and what does his “heel” being “bruised” represent to you?

And when God commanded Abraham to offer Isaac “for a burnt offering”, (which came mighty close to reality), was God ordering him to do something He would never do Himself? If you say that God would never do such a thing, then why not?

If God would do such a thing, how would it be accomplished?

I don't have to defend the position of the Torah as still in effect and unchanged. It is you, the advocate of a radical rupture with the past, who must prove his assertion that the same Torah that says numerous times that it is forever, that Israel will be punished if they ever deviate form it, was suddenly "replaced" a couple thousand years ago. This is the same position you would take should a mormon suddenly demand that you "prove" the "book of mormon" is not true!

You keep reading chrstological messages in the Torah. But you believe they're there because chrstianity says they are. Can't you understand that we're arguing about the right of chrstianity to claim anything??? Assuming the matter in dispute is a logical fallacy called "affirmation of the consequent." I believe I've explained that to you.

Yes, this is what chrstianity teaches. But your continually repeating the teachings like a parrot doesn't prove them. Unfortunately, none of you seem to understand that.

I will take the Words given to Moses, and the other holy prophets, over what some willingly deny. We each get to make choices and we each will get to account for what we chose. Some internet jock has no power over Christ the Redeemer.

The "Words given to Moses" say not one word about chrstianity, nor do the words of any of the other prophets. Chrstianity claims they do. You claim they do. Claiming they do does not prove anything.

Are you and Zuriel the same person? Or is "affirmation of the consequent" the only argument that chrstians know how to make?

I have gone to your “turf”, and you’ve done nothing but dodge the questions. If you had wisdom from God you would be able to answer them.

You declare the Torah as truth. That’s fine, but you have yet to prove to me that you understand what you are reading.
