Brothers,
An interesting little "drama" is being played out in the latest issue of the C&C. It appears that the Da Vinci Code continues to "ruffle some feathers!" How we get from the DaVinci Code to homosexuality, Satan, and the need for all to believe in some particular religious doctrine to be "saved" is beyond me.
The Bible, in my opinion, has been used to justify about any belief anyone wanted to impose on others. Of course, people have a wonderful capacity to see things, even the same thing, in many different ways. In pre-Civil War America, both sides of the slavery issue used the Bible to justify their positions. It took a war, another 100 years, and the Civil Rights Act to gain general acceptance that Blacks were not property but people entitled to civil rights. Of course the debate goes on....
You might want to check out the "Online Magazine Tells Stories" article by Jason Pearce in this month's issue of the C&C. You might even want to jump in on one side or the other of the discussion!
Yours in ZAX,
