Thank you for the romp around my Bible this morning looking up and beyond your citations. These weird passages would make anyone question the sanity of basing your philosophy of life on Christianity. I think I Cor. 8:5, 6 to; seems appropriate as well. My bible has written in my hand the following at the first page: "The Bible is the record of Man's development of understanding about God." I am grateful for that view. Thanks for this interesting education.
