Why is the upside down cross representing St. John of the Cross? Is it in relation to the crucifiction of (Simon) Peter?

Always using the one verse out of an entire passage. Please, I beg, read in whole! 1 Now concerning the things about which you wrote, it is good for a man not to touch a woman. 2 But because of immoralities, each man is to have his own wife, and each woman is to have her own husband...

I have no problems with you questioning Christianity. In fact, I encourage you to continue. I was just surprised at the conclusion that an upside down Cross meant Satanism, instead of what the Roman Catholic Church believes it represents. The crucifiction of St. Peter. The Roman Catholic...

I can't see the pictures, but I am assuming the Cross is upside down? I am amazed that you would assume Christians have no idea what it represents, or that you assume it only means satanism, and Satan. The upside down cross represents how Peter was crucified. Catholics believe that St...

Thank you! I've seen that sign in most of my ASL dictionaries under "Shame" and "bashful". I finished reading the article and would like to make a few comments. Quote from the article: "With all these factors in mind, do we not most honor the Lord and His revealed Word by having it read...

Interesting, I will finish reading your article later. just describe Hand shape, position and movement, I'm assuming the position is near the face. I sign dont know by : Touching my left hand to the side of my forehead, palm facing in. then I turn the hand so it faces out. Or something like...

" We no longer have the word "shamefacedness," because this concept is not a part of the thinkin' of our times. It was, and still is a part of God's thinkin', so it is imperative that we keep the pure clean mirror of the KJV before our eyes." Wow.. so out of all those hebrew and greek words...

Oh yeah, I remember... Heaven. I am very confused on how you can just assume that Heaven means sky everywhere, when you simply refused to accept "Whole earth", as "Whole land" in Genesis for the flood. Interesting. However, The Bible states that God is bigger than the sky. It also talks...

See how much I miss when I go away for a weekend. The King James version also came with a nice little list of Hollidays to be celebrated, that I couldn't seem to find in the scripture. Although I respect the KJV, I do not consider it uniquily inspired during translation...

Entanglement? Scientists did this at the University of Geneeva. They managed to destroy a photon, but it didn't just "Appear" in another place. "The researchers entangled a pair of infrared photons and sent one to the second lab, then teleported a third photon by bringing it into contact...

There's a "Law" of opposites? I'm confused how something based on human perception could create such a law. I have a feeling this doesn't pertain to Physics in anyway. The opposite of Light? Dark? Dark isn't the opposite, it's the absence of light. The opposite of hot? Cold? once again, the...

I'm not able to access those sites regarding Novus spiritus right now. I'm at work (which is a highschool, and many sites are blocked). So, I have some more questions. Again, just curious; about the study groups. You study what? Books? This philosophy of the after life was 'introduced' by...

Christianity, hope, or hopelessness? That's an easy one. I find it hard to look around at society and believe that anyone is good enough to say "I deserve to go to heaven. I deserve to be with the Creator. I deserve it." I find it comforting to know that someone paid the price for me. That what...

Elohim! right... that was the hebrew word I was trying to think of. I agree that it does not reffer to the trinity, although a lot of Christians seem to like that idea. Plural yes, because there is more than one? no. Hebrew has a very common practice of taking a singular and making it plural to...

I got 7 wrong. But I'm hearing.. trying to learn more about Deaf culture.

I randomly watch TV, but my favorite shows to watch are: Tru Calling, Angel, Buffy, Undergrads, Family Guy, The Simpsons, and Stargate SG1

**takes deep breath** lets not make this heated, since I have great respect for your intelegence, and your ability to raise intelegent questions and debate well. Please don't brush off my response with WTF. If you don't agree, I am assuming there is a better reason than you just refuse to agree...

The helicopter and the ufo, that was cool. I'd never seen it before. Life on other planets? Possibly. I find it interesting that water seems to be the basis of life on this plannet. Water is only liquid at such a short range of temperature. Zero it freezes, 100 it evaporates (I'm Canadian)...

Wow, you guys write more than I do! quick reply to stuff I managed to read. God is Spirit. Not male, not female. Called Father; because that's that attributes he exhibits, not because he is Male. The Hebrew word for God in Genesis is plural. (the word has slipped my mind...) I'm at school, so...

I've read the Bible, and no where does it say "God did not create aliens". The existence of Aliens would not disprove God. However I am curious as to how a belief in aliens is more substantial than a belief in God? The Christian God is also not "Male". He has the atributes of a "Father", but...
