Personally, I think being a "skeptic" is a good place to start. That is where I started, too.

Seek the truth with your whole heart and you will find it.

But I suggest that you assume no one here knows what they're talking about.

Get a Bible...read the New Testament until you know what it actually says. I read it 5 times (and then some) in a month once. Go right to the source so you aren't indoctrinated into a "religion".

Awe, Skeptic, not trying to segregate you at all. Just bringing up doubts in a conversation where there is already speculation, ......You know?

Let me ask, do you believe in prophecy?

What made it hard to understand is when people(religious people) started doubting things themselves (mostly OT stuff). For instance the church I grew up in started out as complete and total followers EVERY WORD. Then it happened. Things started happening, meanings started to change overnight because the pastor didn't want to lose people from the church. These things were laws from the bible such as women not cutting their hair, women not painting their faces, laws against divorce, women started coming to church with jewlery and what not. The reason this was allowed was because it was decided that the OT rules didn't apply anymore. But there is a NT scripture that clearly says no law should be forgotten (sorry off hand I cant remember where it is, but I ashore you it is there. I have probably read the bible front and back more than most preachers.). So the problem with me isn't that I need to read more or ask what it means, it only takes one time of reading it to understand it. The rest of the time is just going back to see if it actually said what you thought it said.

But I do like to see how others explain things so that is why I ask or bring up things.

Oh... you are biblically literate?

Then fire away. I can probably relate to every objection you have because I was once an atheist who decided to read the bible apart from any christian interpreting it for me.

Even after 15 years of being a believer, I still have problems with the way some "religious" folks interpret the bible but that fact has no bearing on my salvation so I just forgive them and smile.

No I don't. I believe in predictions based on the sign of the times. For instance I believe the Cleveland Browns will in 3 years be a playoff team because of the changes they made this off season. Now most of the country would laugh for weeks seeing such a prediction, but as of right now their is no way of proving such a thing. Even if they win 2 more games this year than they won last year it doesn't prove my prediction will come true. However for this one we will know in three years if it comes true or not, but we know right now without a shadow of a doubt there were a lot of things "predicted" in the bible that hasn't happened and never will.

usually they get mad because I'm smiling at them!!!

Skeptic....what if I told you the name of the Coach and the play he would call to win the Super Bowl 200 years from now? Would that be prophecy or a lucky guess?
