[QUOTE="Cubby, post: 14593, member: 391"] [b]Re: Christianity[/b] What this school seems to be teaching is the importance in knowledge. Adam and Eve described full well that knowledge isn't as useful as people make it seem. At least, if you want to actually learn anything from religion is to reinterpret it and omit parts, especially the parts reinterpreted to political gain. Unless of course you want to be an avid believer that the bible should be taken for face value only, as I've seen people do... which requires reinterpretation in it's own right. Keep in mind that no one teacher has seen everything, wether religious or scientific. This teacher of religion responded in that way simply on the irritating fact that it was both oppositional and contradictory to thier knowledge of the subject. A person will spend their life learning the words from the book then teaching these words of patience, love and understanding and not practice them. The bible says you can't just accept Jesus into your life, you have to emulate him. What he did, not what was done to him. Sure he spent his time teaching, but he was also a carpenter, a magician to his friends(water into wine! he caught on to fermentation fast) and a person as bound to operate in the "mundane" things that people do here... And he did it with a grin too I bet. One last note, after being reminded; Nothing spectacularily miraculous ever happened outside of life as we see it alive. All prophets and messiahs describe things they've witnessed or been a part of... wether they take it as being otherworldly, netherworldly or transcendantally worldly, they just came back to describe something of this world.. even if they never noticed it as a part of their world before.
