The Resurrection of Christ is in the Word of God.

When I said the word "system" when I wrote "Christians entire belief system", I was referring to the whole faith is based system on the fact that the Word of God is inerrant. Belief in the Resurrection is a fundamental part of that belief.

I can walk around all day long and believe my hamster Chris was raised from the dead and worship him. That does not make it true. If I had 500 people testify under penalty of death it was true, that might be different.

Christ himself told us, he is the Word of God. I guess he was ill informed as well

Your arrogance is especially ugly when coated in spiritually

Arrogant I well might be, but please do not accuse me of being spiritual, let alone coating anything I say in spirituality. I can say a lot of things about spirituality, but the only relevant thing is that I am not.

It is not I but Paul who says if you do not believe in the literal physical resurrection of Jesus then dont even bother. You probably know the cite.

And you are far far more intelligent than I if you understand the concept of Logos.

But what is so discouraging, is that many Christians are no different from leftists and liberals in their uselessness or worse when confronting islam.

Many Christians do not have the intellectual fortitude to confront islam. In effect, their pov is: I am religious, they are religious, we have more in common than not, and if I criticize them, the same arguments will be used against me.

This, I believe, is one major reason our President cannot face the truth or tell it.

It appears that free men and not Christians will be fighting this war on the field of truth.
