I've never heard that before - that is interesting. Expecially the part about speaking slowly; it makes sense.

...My point exactly. I ask for objectivity concerning the bible and Christianity - an objective and honest approach - and this is what I get. Almost every episode of the Paracast brings up the frustrating reality of intelligent and capable researchers being ignored and ridiculed because of the...

The show is really good, but there is a definate slant against the bible and Christianity, which is irritating. I would challenge David to put as much objective and honest study into the scriptures as he does the UFO topic - at least before he decides to belittle those of us who believe those...

I think I have discovered a trend. I have listened to 20 or 30 episodes now - some highly intelligent guests, some decent guests, moronic guests... and some plum out of their mind guests. Has anyone else noticed that when a guest starts asking questions and immediately answering them, like "Do...

...I've got a sickness, and the only cure is... more cowbell. Is Angry Human really another podcast? All Biedney, all the time?

Maybe you should look into making your own Parapolitics, or Policast. ...just sayin'.

Before I reply, I want to say that I am utterly impressed with the politeness with which opinions are expressed around here - your willingness to discuss these things with me without it turning into jabs is remarkable, and I thank you. I consider myself very tolerant of other religions. I can...

Actually, the common consensus is that the first gospel was probably written within 30 to 40 years after Christ's resurrection. This would make the contemporaries of Jesus still living at the time of their writing. There are extra-biblical texts (Talmud, Josephus, etc.) that mention Jesus - the...

You're right - Christians have increasingly began to place the blame on Satan for their own actions. "The devil made me do it" has become a mantra of sorts. Again, my world view is that of a Messianic believer in Yeshua (Jesus), so I must go back to the bible in my answer. Evil forces are...

I haven't heard of either of them, but I will check it out. The statement about invoking Jesus' name is a little broad. Scripturally, as a follower of Yeshua, I can call on His name for help; which includes expelling demons. I would first have to be 'one of His' though. If I am not following...

<o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com<img src=" images="" smilies="" redface.gif="" border="0" alt="" title="Embarrassment" smilieid="2" class="inlineimg"></o:smarttagtype> I think it is pretty common for people to have a hard time with Satan. Of course, I think that is...

We walked around the tiny house. I personally looked into a window and saw drapes; I don't remember seeing inside though. None of us touched it because we were told explicitly not to. As for Jesus (Yeshua), The book of 1 John makes the claim that he was from eternity. It starts out, "In the...

More interesting than that is the fact that the bible (Torah, Tanach and New Testament) makes the claims the authorship of God Himself - in the person of the Holy Spirit - then still talkes about these things. If you take the bible at its word, you are left with the oddity of God Himself...

And I would agree. I listen to a lot of different shows, and hear a lot of people say that disclosure would shake the religious communities - and it probably would, but it wouldn't rattle those who truly read the bible and take it's words seriously. As far as the spiritual and physical aspects...
