If spinach and hamburgers are the way to heaven, then I'm in!  \n\nAnd the best part: Being a Follower of the Sailor-Man is not incompatible with membership in the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster -- it just means more good food on the table.

The area around where this happened was divided into different ethinic groups and actually seperate countries, & the Jews where not the majority at all. So the Swine probably belonged to some Greeks or others. However it is more then likely that the whole story is an allegory and bull$hit. Surely an intelligent talented pig like yourself does not believe in demons or miracles and are aware the Bible is 90% lies, and as a pig you know you have a strong sense of self preservation. There is no such thing as Kosher bacon either.

Cue the snarky reply, "Can you prove he doesn't?" \n\nIn 5, 4, 3, 2....\n\nI'd sure like to see proof if there is any. But proof to me and proof to the religious is two entirely different things. Some would have us believe that bananas are proof.

From my point of view and my opinion Joseph Smith was a great con man who roped people into believing a lie.  Those 'documents' that came from those god tables were proven to be hieroglyphics that he turned this way and that.  Everyone who purported to have seen those tables later recanted.  There is no evidence in this hemisphere that those civilizations existed.  Horses and elephants he described in those books didn't exist here until Europeans came.  DNA proved there is no link to the American Indians and Israelites.  None of it existed beyond his imagination. Add to that those books have been changed, and NOT to correct spelling, over 4000 times.  There is an easy way to prove that one, and other holy books as well, in the US copyright runs out 70 years after the author died.  The only thing that stops the clock on it is changes to it.  Then copyright restarts from the year of the change.  Look at copyright dates.  That will tell you if and when they are changed.  Not only that there is a lot in the Book of Mormon that was out and out plagiarized from the Bible its self.  See the following links for articles I just sited.

I definately recommend you reading the Nag Hammadi Library.  It will give you a different persective on Jesus and the people surrounding him.  I think the idea is probable as you make a good point that her Gospel was left out. (as was so many others)  Here are some links that might interest you.

It was Jonah in the whale by the way.\n\nAnd you are not accounting for those of us who have started believing as an adult, with all of our critical mindedness and resistance to change.  We still have heard the word of God and listened.  We have accepted the gospel and have gained a testimony of it.\n\nNot mental diseases, mental clarity.\n\n\n\nCTR

I watched the special on National Geographic. Have they made the text available to read anywhere?\n\nBased on the information that was given on the National Geographic premiere...I firmly believe that Jesus chose Judas to sacrifice him. Someone had to do it and he wanted Judas to be the one. The thing that gets me is that when Jesus tells Judas that he will be known as deceitful person for many, many years but in the END, the truth will be known. Wow, that means we know now....does that mean that we are really close to the end?\n\nI would love to look at it more in depth when they release it; if you know anywhere it has been published, please let me know.

Has something to do with Popeye being shown on Cartoon Network.

Dear sweet one, \n\n  There is no proof.  If there were proof, then the global population would be in perfect agreement.  There is faith, and there are theories.  And nothing more.

God answers prayers of those people that have gotten right with God and have God first in their heart, Its a relationship. Signs of existance hmmmm how about us and the earth. Or do you think this was an accident, the human body is so complex it cant be just by chance!Have lots of doubts about God, Jesus, or the Bible? Most people who think about this do wonder "How do I know that what the Bible says is true?" At ---, we think that this is an excellent question deserving an excellent answer, and that's what we provide in our "Facts Behind the Faith" seminar. Contrary to what you may have heard, God doesn't ever expect us to have "blind faith." He has always proven what He has said, and He's done that conclusively. The only thing that separates Christianity from every other religion is that it can PROVE what it says to be true. No other religion can. We can prove logically, scientifically, and archaeologically that God must exist, that the Bible is directly from God, that Jesus was God's Son, and even that He rose from the dead. Sound impossible? Then you owe it to yourself to force us to prove it. We guarantee that you'll be amazed at what you learn, and you deserve PROOF. Let us give you some  Go to this site and check out the simnars

I think these Bible codes are very interesting and look to be very accurate. It was very good of you to find this. I want to look at this website more often to see other revelations other than the New Orleans/Katrina one which I thought was really neat. Thanks!!!!

Once when I asked for proof of God's existence, I was handed a Bible and told, "Here's all the proof you need."\n\nThe Bible is proof of God?\n\nThat is a very logical and sound argument.  \n\nI know beyond any doubt that there is a mischievous little monkey who's friend is The Man in the Big Yellow Hat.  I KNOW that to be true because I once read the book 'Curious George.'

The Jeep is supposed to be a creature from another dimensional world, which is why he has the powers he has, such as being able to teleport (fade out somewhere, and fade in somewhere else) and to tell the future.\n\nThe rare African Whiffle Hen was another creature from Popeye. Rubbing her head brought a person luck. When Popeye was first introduced, he was shot fifteen times in the chest at point blank range, by Jack Snork, who wanted revenge on Castor Oyl (Olive's brother) for using the luck of the Whiffle Hen to break the bank at the casino on Dice Island. Popeye rubbed the head of the Whiffle Hen all night long and reappeared in the morning to beat Snork. So Popeye's toughness, his abilty to survive any number of beatings (not necessarily his strength) comes from a 'magical' source, the Whiffle Hen, not the spinach.\n\nThe schmoo (I know you didn't ask about schmoos, but I suspect that they and the jeep are related) is a creature from the Li'l Abner comic strip that reproduced like crazy, and loved to be eaten. When fried, they tasted like chicken, when broiled they tasted like steak. They laid a dozen eggs and two quarts of milk each morning. They had no bones and their whiskers made excellent toothpicks. All you had to do was look hungrily at one, and it would gladly lay down and die for you (so you could eat it.) \nI think they divided by fission like bacteria, so that the cartoonist (Al Capp) didn't have to deal with schmoo sex.\n\nWouldn't it be wonderful if they were all real...?\n\n13 NOV 06, 0309 hrs, GMT.

I thik that you may find that you are correct in your assumption.  I don't think it will validate the whole Bible... unless Noah carved his name in the boat!!  But I am with you on the Epic of Gilgamish.

I have never heard anything like that.  I don't think the chicken/egg/rabbit story has anything to do with Jesus.
