Hi Bo,You seem like a nice guy. May I ask what your reason for coming to HN is? Are you trying to teach us that all true Muslims are true Christians too? Are you here to convert us to the Muslim faith. What is your bottom line for being here?Blessings,Kathi

Hi Keith,I admire Mary but don't pray to her. If accusations come then we know the “accuser” is behind it and so we can choose to worry about the accusations or turn them into clay pigeons and blast them

And then there are those of us who can sing this song and be in awe of the event and the babe in the manger.http://I first heard this song in church and by that time I had my fourth baby boy.

Irene,For the Christian, Christmas replaces a pagan holiday, it doesn't adopt a pagan holiday. Christmas honors God's gift of His Son, the pagan holiday did not do that. We Christians can tear down what went before and rebuild a different celebration. Man can institute an annual celebration to honor God…look at Purim and Hanukah. Did God…[Read more]

Bo,Isn't the question whether or not God could produce an offspring with His nature? Or not? I sure could not say with any confidence that He couldn't after all He is God and look around…isn't the creation beyond understanding? If He could create the universe couldn't He produce an offspring with His nature?

Hi Irene,I'm glad that you will think about that because Christmas time is all around us and to feel like you can't celebrate it also, especially being a Christian, would be sad and a burden that you should not have been given, IMO. All these wasted Christmas' that you haven't felt the freedom to celebrate makes me feel sad. I do hope that you…[Read more]
