Do you not realize that as christians we are in unison with bible ideology as you progressives are in your " progressive" ideaoligy. We each has our philophecy to which we stand. Just because you use your talking points to relay your thoughts so do we and you don't have the right to demand that yours is ok and ours is not. You quote books and men to back your thoughts and we also quote a book and the men in it to back ours. Freedom of speech is exactly that.

Timothy was not a "peasant desert mystic"... he was from the Lycaonian city of Lystra or of Derbe in Asia Minor, born of a Jewish mother who had become a Christian believer, and a Greek father. The Apostle Paul met him during his second missionary journey and he became Paul's assistant.
In Paul’s first letter to Timothy, he gave him instructions and advice for leading the church. He also exhorted Timothy not to let others look down on him due to his youth, but to set an example for other believers "in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity". Paul told Timothy to be dev**ed to reading Scripture, exhorting, and teaching, and to not neglect the gift that he had been given. Paul also counseled Timothy to keep a close watch on himself. These instructions remain pertinent to believers today.
Men writing about Jesus and what he said and did is not blasphemy - it is keeping the word of God alive.
The real blasphemy going on here is you saying that ascribing the authorship of God to the writings of men is blasphemy.

That’s the first thing you’ve said that I, sort of, agree with. The problem is it can only be a request. You have no right to regulate public speech, and neither do I. It’s a freedom we grant eachother as civilized people.
Welcome to the challenges of living in a classical liberal (anti-l*****t) country where freedom speech is number one in our Bill of Rights.

You will never understand. Not unless you stop doing things like taking Jesus' name in vain....but obviously that kind of thing doesn't matter to someone like you.

Actually everyone has the right to 'bombard' you with free speech. Don't like it? Then don't read it.

Everything you say or do has to do with religion woodhead...It's called secular humanism where you believe yourself and/or the government to be god.

I completely disagree ”It has nothing to do with politics…”. In fact, Biblical writings often directly reflect on life within politics.
Having said the above and as a person of faith, I tend to agree with you. There is a whole section within OPP for people to use ie; Faith, Religion, Spirituality. I have no objection to a brief citing of scripture; however, excessive citing is unnecessary.

Believe it or not, woodguru, there have many finer minds than yours throughout our history and a vast majority of them sought guidance in scripture.

If the Hebrew prophets were speaking under the inspiration of God their messages would be consistently in accordance with natural law, rather than inconsistent and at variance with each other over time. The Hebrew scriptures are no different than the Islamic scriptures in this regard. Their sadly earth-bound provincial origin is obvious to any divinely inspired reader.
Will you be so kind as to show where the authors of the Bible messages that were inspired by the Holy Spirit are inconsistent and at variance with each other over time?
Thanks in advance.
