Well, if fate would be kind enough and there were some girls, who could sing, around, then IŽd sing :
Every time I look at you, I donŽt understand
Why you let the things get so out of hand.
YouŽd have managed better, if youŽd had it planned
WhyŽd you choose such a backward time and such a strange land
If youŽd come today, youŽd have reached a whole nation,
Israel 4 BC had no mass communication
et cetera
;)
Simple. His middle initial H stands for : "someone, who has got a mysterious middle name about what most people even don't know, but what certainly makes him more interesting person"Quote:

But I would also ask how much truth there was in the gospels and what was the truth.
(I mean, most of the witnesses were who? - fishermen. Would you believe, if a friend of you, who is a fisherman, would say that "look, I caught soooo big fish today, but it got away"? I don't think you would. But why do people believe, when a fisherman says that he saw how a man walked on water?
Consider me a heretic.)
I think I'd ask Him if He'd like some coffee, cause I can make some killer expresso :thumbs_up
I don't think you'd need one. If He came to you I'd say He would already speak english. He probably knows all languages!Quote:

I shall finish by asking if homosexuals will actually go to hell and, if it's true, that particular rule doesn't seem fair to me. Then I shall repent and ask forgiveness for my own numerous sins.
I guess I'd be tying up quite a bit of His time, won't I?
I have met HIM...
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Matthew 4:23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
John 15:12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
I pray this touches your heart...as it has mine.
Your sister and friend.
If I met Jesus face to face there would be but one question on my mind. No, wait! By the time I actually ran into him on the street he probably would have already dealt with the problem (as I'm sure HE is fuming right now, and it is probably number one on his list of things to do when he gets here) and so I would only want to know, " What took you so long to smite organized religion that perverted your philosophy to their own ends"?
Am I a heretic? Jesus may disagree............
If being a heretic mean going against all the doctrines of the church, then yes you are, and Im in the boat with you! I say hear the message of Christs sacrafice and accept it as you will, the rest is all made up by people who are just as human as I am.Quote:

I'd like to ask Him which is the most correct of several interpretations of your second quote. IMO it would put an end to a great deal of religious hatred and conflict.
I would say, why did you take on all of humanities sins if they still just keep commiting them and can always rely on you to unburden persons at the end?
Love, dude!Quote:

I would like to think that, with Jesus, communication would require no words. I would say nothing, but only wait for him to say anything, and feel especially grateful for any teachings.
I would hope he was here to take me to a better place.....
got butter?
