Do you really think Jesus' crucifixion was as big a deal as Christianity makes it out to be? How could such a small event pay for the sins of the whole world? Many others were crucified besides Jesus. Can't their crucifixions at least be payment for their own sins? Why do they, being crucified themselves, need Jesus for any reason? Answer me that. ........... I don't know > your spiritual state, but if you are in sin today, Colin, Jesus Christ > can set you free.
Well, this is true only if you mean by following his example of obeying the Law of Moses you are free from sin. ..........He died on the cross to save you and me from our > sin -- not just to save us from hell, but to make us different > creatures. Whatever. ..............

You're sure right about that, but there is a trap. Guilt is not an enemy, but a friend, and a gift. God gave us guilt to tell us when we are sinning, that we might respond to the guilt and stopping sinning, even make up for the sin we have done in the past by doing good works. > Any of you who read this, if you are not free from sin today, confess > it to God! Confession of sin doesn't take away sin. It is only useful if it can cause one to stop sinning. ................. Believe in Jesus Christ as your only way of salvation! Why? If you're gonna buy into that bunk, why not believe in Mithas as your only way of salvation?

Dee <.@coeeaoeeaeeco> wrote in message > Show your proof that there was a census in Palestine in 7 BC.

Actually, I made a mistake, but still most secular sources date the cenus in 8 BC anyway, only one year off from 7 BC. Here is one such example, which dates the census in 6 AD: http://www.infidels.org/library/modern/richard_carrier/quirinius.html But what I meant to say is that some websites that say THERE ARE EGYPTIAN RECORDS of a census that was taken NOT in 20 AD, 6 AD, and 8 BC, but "shortly after 20 BC", which is to say 19 BC. Now this census was supposed to be every 14 years, (not 12 which I said according to my bad memory) so the other census years were supposed to be 5 BC and 9 AD. This doesn't change anything, because the above point I made is still valid, that the Christians have all kinds of conflicting traditions about the years Jesus lived. One website says: "The census could have taken place in the autumn of 5 BC" (Sir W. M. Ramsay's book, Was Christ Born at Bethlehem? esp. ch. XI) That would seem to support the 19 BC, 5 BC, 9 AD, 23 AD rather than the 22 BC, 8 BC, 6 AD, 20 AD dates. Notice however no evidence for 2 BC being a year of the census.

'first' is an english addition for ease of reading, becaise it says 'at this time' it can be implied that it was not before any time recently. Do I really have to explain this to you, or am I right that you have given no thought at all to my translation? Mars here is indicated by 'terrible god' = Mars. These are one and the same. It ties back into the other quatrains.

When it says they say they came from the east it means just that, they came from the east. When it says they saw the star in the east it means just that, they say the star in the place where they came from, the east, and they followed it there. The star it seems to be describing seems to be a UFO. They wanted the readers to believe a UFO led the wise men to Jesus. You are going overboard by suggesting the writers did not mean the gospels to be a historical account. X

Although I believe the OT and NT both have contradictions and absurdities, there is no contradiction here. If you could point one out, you would have done so. Make me look real bad. But you know there is not one in this particular case.

For your sake, as I have said, there are supposedly Egyptian records from that time (?) that claim 20/19 BC as a census year, with 14 year separations, and even the secular sources say the same thing about 6 AD, so I don't exactly know what you are getting at. Are you suggesting there was not so much as one cenus in between the years 19 BC and 6 AD? If so, I got to hand it to you, there doesn't seem to be any historical record, besides some supposed 14 year gap. If you know any secular argument against traditional dating for any census in the 15 BC - 5 AD timeframe, I am completely open to hear it. X

If it meant 1999 and 7 months, it failed. But obviously Nostradamus was trying to get it to rhyme with angolmais, so he made it so say 1999 and 7 more.

Entrez = Entrer Look it up in the dictionary, or on babylon.com It means the "the ones who enter" Or what about étranger, ALIENS. All part of the same family. They are called aliens for a reason you know. They are not openly present on this earth, so when they COME/ENTER they make CONTACT, they are not considered aliens for ever, only at first, after they enter. You are bias against my interpretation. You don't like me or my translations, because you have to take credit for everything yourself. You only respect your own translations. That is where you err. > > > True, the word has its roots in the french for "buried > >>ones" and even letters is suggestive of white and many. > > Well, let's assume the other possible explanation, shall we?

You don't understand, and at this rate you never will. How much more clearly do I have to spell it out for you. In X-74, line 4, Nostradamus prophesied alien contact in the year 2008.

You are missing the prophetic significance in favor of metrical and other mumbo jumbo. I am not trying to diss your hard work at arriving at the proper reading, but you are missing the big picture, which is the most important aspect. > > Clever stuff!
