nippy Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 [quote name='Sir Sci' date='23 May 2010 - 03:08 AM' timestamp='1274576904' post='2308614'] Gosh, I just love it when people use Bible verses when they really have no clue what they're talking about. It's just beautiful to see the ignorance. [/quote] I know, because all they did was quote bible verses and not provide any commentary whatsoever. The ignorance was supplied by the bible verse itself, I guess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pomiell Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 (edited) /me suggests changing your name to the New Pious Order.

That is all. [/quote] I think there's probably enough contradiction within the relevant texts alone (let alone reality) to have CCC and NCO disagree on some aspect of the bible, be declared a heretic and have a holy crusade to destroy the unbeliever.

[/quote] Ivan is still with us. Also, I'm wondering if women will be allowed into this alliance? And if so, will they be allowed to post at all? After all, we must consult Timothy 2:11-13 where it states: [quote]"A woman should learn in quietness and full submission.

If they have something to say, they'll need to do it through a male surrogate: Corinthians 14:35. At least that's my interpretation. This archaic text seems to be full of anti-feminist writings, ranging from silence to rape to murder. We'll have to wait for the NCO's interpretation, to see which punishment they will choose for [b]their[/b] women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Peter calling to remembrance said unto him, ‘Rabbi, behold, the fig tree that you cursed is withered away’” (Mk. 11:12-14; 20-21).
