Re: The Latest Scientifical Insanity

It would appear you overindulged somewhat when it came to the communion wine. That hippy yammering you posted was one of the most pathetic attempts to change the subject I've ever seen. Now act like a decent human for once in your Anglican life and admit you lost the argument.

AAARRRGGGH! a decent Anglican noddy admitting defeat of argument ...

If your "Church of England" is so innocent, how do you explain that the country your church worships has been chosen, out of all the nations in the world, for colonization by Pope John Paul's maruding tribe of homosexuals?

Now thats cool. a giant diamond. =]
But umm stars didnt evolve. They're superheated masses of Hydrogen and Helium. They got hot enough to where the hydrogen atoms got moving fast enough to when they bang against each other they fuse creating a helium atom. and when the star gets denser later in its life and therefore hotter heavier elements are made (such as the giant mass of carbon that found)
and thats how stars exist.
Also space flight isnt cheep. you know how much rocket fuel is? you think our gas prices are bad. liquid oxygen is not cheep. along with all the computers and hand built space craft.
yeah, they need all those dollers to do that. unless you dont want your satellite TV anymore, or internet.

You should concentrate on fixing your deranged sexual identity rather than spreading these mumbo-jumbo lies about stars.

Genesis 1,16
And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

What don't you understand?

Hmmm Brother Jeb ... the Episcopal Church of the USA is a member of the Worldwide Anglican Communion of Churches ... and the Church of England is also a member ...

We are similar, we have the same style of worship, but we have a democratic church law and an elected presiding Bishop ...

We are Episcopal USA, not Church of England, and not Roman Catholic, so what has the Pope got to do with it?

I don't know anything about what's happening in England, or what you mean about John Paul's homers ...

... sorry

You have a WHAT?
You actually vote on worship and theology??
You can't vote on such things, since it's not opinon, but either true or false.
Jesus sure isn't some democrat. When Jesus returns to rule, He will rule with a rod of iron! (Revelation 19:15)

Episcopal church law rules on church canon ... such as election of bishops and so on ...

Every parish has a vestry which decides the rules within the conventions of the Diocese ...

I myself served on vestry in my own parish ... it's an elected position, by the way, with a term of three years ...

We don't change God's law or Jesus' law, and we don't change the Holy Scripture, either ...

What have the Pope's homers got to do with the Episcopal Church? ... nothing whatsoever!

Are you a married woman, Nan? If so, how does your husband fell about the outright brazen and sassy attitude? If not, how does your father feel about it? You seem like a lovely woman and I would hate to see this type of behavior lead you to a life lesbianism. Lesbianism is the #1 cause of breast cancer, female facial hair, and murder you children syndrome.

Thank you for your kind words, Brother Joshua. You are so articulate and well-bred, a pleasure!

I am probably older than you think I am, Brother, both husband and father went to be with God, my children are grown with their own families. My family in the Lord is my church, where I'm blessed and honored to serve.

Perhaps what the Godly pastors here consider to be sassy in my replies is my outspoken loyalty to the Episcopal Church. To me it is the most beautiful and refined of the mainstream churches; a liturgical church but without the influence of the Roman Pope. As I've said in various posts on the board, I'm not a fundamentalist; I'm also well-read and informed in science, history and literature.

I find the conversation here on the forum lively and enjoyable. Sometimes I speak out and offer information about religious history and tradition because I have a background in theology, and I like intelligent dialogue.

In no way are my replies meant to be insulting or contradictory to the pastors here. I think perhaps some of them have misunderstood. I like to have a good time too, and I've been having fun being silly in some of my posts. Nothing wrong with some good-natured joking around and laughter, yes?

In my church women are respected for our minds, our intellectual abilities and skills. Episcopalian women can go to seminary and earn a Masters of Divinity degree, go through Process to Holy Orders and be ordained as clergy, or licensed as lay ministers, as I am; or find fullfillment in many other ministries such as outreach, family services, healing prayer, and so on.

Brother, I think you needn't fear I'll ever be temped to lesbianism, I'm personally against the gay lifestyle for both men and women, and have no inclination toward that sort of thing.

Thanks for asking, and blessings from Nan ...

The word "Anglican" is derived from the Anglo-Saxons, a tribe that inhabited England. You Episscopaliens are just a bunch of wannabe Englishers, which must be one of the most inexplicable ambitions the world has ever known.

Thank you for your kind words, Brother Joshua. You are so articulate and well-bred, a pleasure!

How tactless are you, woman? Way to make the poor tarbaby feel self-conscious! "Look, an articulate negro!" - why don't you just come right out and thank him for not raping you, stealing your pies, and then writing a hippity-hop song about it? Seriously, the insensitivity of some people never ceases to amaze me.

I appreciate Brother Joshua's refined manners, I like people who are polite and intelligent. A person's race doesn't even enter into it for me. I meant my compliment to him sincerely. My post was as clear as I could write it, Brother T, yet you want to twist my words to mean something else. Why do you do that?

SEE!!! You're at it again!! Making accusations about our good Pastor when all he is doing is protecting Brother Joshua from your Racist rantings .

Re: The Latest Scientifical Insanity

Yeah yeah Brother T, I saw your previous post ...

Well I am baaaack from church you guys ... the magnificent procession, the pomp and ceremony, the Holy Eucharist ... because we worship God the Father Almighty with sacred music, sacred story, and the sacraments ...
......

With all your Canticles, Magnificats (Mary worshiping music), Nunc Dimittis, Venites, Te Deums, Jubilated Degos, and Freces, you might as well be kissing the popes ring and some dead English King (Henry VIII) as well.

There is nothing like some good Baptist songs like John Philip Sousa's "Sweet By and By", or a rousing "Onward Christian Soldiers", to celebrate Jesus.

Hmmm, actually you've got that pretty much the way we have it, Brother William JB, we have the canticles and magnificats and te deums.

But we sing some normal modern hymns too, in fact I think we've got that "Onward Christian Soldiers" in our hymnal.

By the way, we have some Baptists in our congregation, you might be interested to know we have a married couple who are Episcopalian and Baptist, and there is a nice Baptist Church across the street on the corner.

Another good reason to hate seculiar rock music: I can never hear the good old "Sweet By and By" without thinking of the perversions inflicted upon it by that Church-burning Swedish commie punk rocker Joe Hill and his godless death metal cover. "Long-haired preachers" indeed!

Amen Brother Temperance.

You know when I think about it, there is nothing like that upper class High Church Episcopalian music to put one to sleep - especially with all that Latin mumbo-jumbo in it. I think it is designed to put the congregation into a trance like state to make it easier for their clergy to insert demons in their rectums. If they were really True Christians™ they would be out rebuking to make the world a better place, and witnessing to bring the unsaved to Jesus.
