Welcome to seo-ceo.com!
I make it a practice rarely to respond to zealots, but after looking at your blogg, I
have concluded that you will probably take this as a
Submit compliment.
My personal feeling about the Bible and its literal translation - New
or Old Testament - and whether I believe in it is not central to my
belief in God, which I do, and to my belief that people have the right to choose their
own path to God.
I would hope that in the future you can find it in your heart to
understand that other people may have different versions of personal
faith and belief systems that differ from yours, which are valid for
them, even if they do not adhere to your interpretation of the Bible.
Regards,

And what are you but a zealot for humanism? Here a zealot, there a zealot. Such
prejudicial language coming from an estranged Levite, if not a cohen. Regardless, I
appreciate your response, Arthur.

Testament - and whether I believe in it is not central to my belief in God, which I do,

Just like Adam and Eve rejected revelation, stole the divine prerogative to determine
for themselves, as wannabe gods, what is right and what is wrong? That amounts to
SPIRITUAL ANARCHY.

I already understand this but consider it dishonest once errors are clearly pointed out
by the Light of the Word, and if someone rejects that light to lean to their own
human understanding they have no legitimate basis for their beliefs, and everyone's
beliefs are equally valid (which logic demands simply is impossible) and everybody
remains lost in the spiritual wilderness, groping about, yet ironically feeling smug
and self-righteous about how their religion, created in their own image, is so tolerant
and understanding. Yet your article is not tolerant of those who accept that there are
absolutes in life, that there is a definite right and wrong and that the Bible sets the
standard for all men and nations to follow, so help us God.
