You should be careful when you mistake parable with fact, and science with made up. Ever hear the term "flat earther"?

Notice the Bible doesn't actually condone the flat earth theory. It said the earth is round.
 
Kudos to the pope.

Still no idea who this Gawd fella is. Now as far as the word of GOD. Anyone can receive the word of God, nobody has said otherwise, some just deliberately choose to ignore it. (Gay, adulterer, liar, thieves, murderers, prostitutes, etc) Who has been selective?

:lamo More dodge ball??? anyone can receive the Word? Then why ban gays and the Boy Scouts from church property? Adulterers and thieves can claim to be weak and still come back repeatedly to Church- why can't gays? Churches are full of repeat offenders. Why can't the Boy Scouts meet in the Church rec center? The Church is being HIGHLY selective... and a tad mean spirited....

Now the part you have ignored-

'HISTORY' is more than a very garbled oral tradition passed down for thousands of years. You claimed the earliest accounts of the Bible are history and somehow predate the other myths about how the heavens and earth were formed. it isn't history, it is legend and myth, like every other religion.

Forgot- some say GAWD isn't a fella...
 
Way off track. The Pope is tasked with leading the Church to serve the people spiritually. Even the errant sheep are part of the flock. He seems to be intent on serving them too rather than rejecting them out of hand, this is a very good thing.

I am honestly curious about this and I appreciate you answering my questions.

And what kind of behavior do you define as militant?
What do they do when they "trash" the fam unit etc?

I honest think you're BSing me. You're not stupid. Do the research yourself.

i am not BSing you. I am curious about what individuals think not what groups say to promote agendas. People count more. You aren't an idiot and neither am I. It is my assumption that you have thought this through and can clearly and intelligently represent yourself. Take it or leave it.

Prove that God created marriage? Why does that need to be proven in a court? Adam and Eve were the first marriage, and guess who joined them together? God. Historically documented in Genesis.

Lol... you serious?

Wrong, you've already flipped from NT beliefs to what makes people militant and have agendas. Smells like a fishing expedition and I don't have the time or patience to walk you through it.

No, I did not flip. You may not have followed, but I did not flip. I am trying to understand your position by asking you questions. If that makes you nervous, you have no obligation to respond.

It's one thing to say you don't like it, it's another if you support government force against it.
 
He has not said anything much different than Benedict. The only difference is the MSM hated Benedict and seem to (for now)like Francis.

Not one of your sources say homosexuality is genetic. That there is a gay gene. A well known researcher in the field recently admitted in an interview homosexuality is not genetic. The scientists who did the identical twin studies were also pro gay and had to admit their studies showed beyond refute that there is no gay gene.

Who has actually banned gays from their property? Other than that crazy westboro church or whatever their name is.

I know exactly what it says. And though you probably read very poor sources, the twin studies actually suggested a genetic component. Think spectrum and not either or.

So, read them again.

So you literally believe that Adam and Eve were the first humans ever on the planet?

When exactly was that? What time in history? How long ago?

Absolute fact. Somewhere between 10-15 thousand years ago it is estimated. As high as 25,000 years ago by some estimates.
