[] I apologize to all you net folks for the inconvenience caused. Yes, I know that this is not the proper newsgroup for this letter but this was where I read Norm's posting. Besides, I do not have the destination path to send e-mail. Dear Norm : I read your posting mentioning the ridiculousness of believing the Bible. Believe me, I do see where you're coming from. In fact, I can show you that not only 1. is the Bible foolish but also 2. those who believe it are foolish. 1. "For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God." I Corinthians 1 : 18 "For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe." I Corinthians 1 : 21 So you see, believing the Bible is foolishness. 2. "But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And the base things of the world, and the things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are That no flesh should glory in His presence." I Corinthians 1 : 27-29 So you see, Christians are a foolish lot. You may want go through the rest of the first chapter of I Corinthians. The foolishness of the Bible and its believers is well explained. The silly grin on my face is because God is good to me. Praying for you, I remain... The foolish, weak, base and despised -- David uucp: ...{decvax,hao,ihnp4,seismo}!noao!terak!david phone: 602 998 4800 us mail: Terak Corporation, 14151 N 76th street, Scottsdale, AZ 85260 For the love of God is the beginning of all Christianity...
