Note to Moderators: I'm aware that this discussion has meandered a long way from SORS but I think the various points are important and hopefully interesting to other people. I for one am quite happy for it to be split into a separate thread. |

Putting the "Fun Dame" into Fundamentalist
|
You asked first, Mairtin! You asked where Our Lord said that Creation took place in 6 days, implying that He didn't, and therefore it didn't! And it was you who pointed out that Our Lord said nothing about homosexual sex being wrong, and that He said very little about sex at all anyway. So, I don't see why you have a problem with this line of reasoning! |

Splitting topics is time consuming, it needs to be done one page at a time, selecting which posts to split and which to leave. Once split, the moderator ends up with three separate threads that then need to be combined. It is time consuming. May I suggest you both start another thread, taking turns to make your posts again, or alternatively starting again from scratch? |

Common sense, Mairtin, and the fact that the Church does not say we must. Good grief. Am I the only person here who believes that one is not obliged to give one's cloak to someone who steals one's coat?? Come on!
Chop off your hand and pluck out your eye if they cause you to sin?? That's not a parable either.
As I've already said. Common sense and Church teaching. Now, will you tell me what one ought to do after one has been punched on the cheek, turned the other, and been punched on that one as well? Maybe that's the time for fisticuffs! |

Ok. But I'm about to dish up dinner, so it'll have to wait. |

Clare, as I've said before, I wish you'd deal with what I say rather than what you imagine I might be implying. I've said nothing about the views of Jesus on taking the Creation story literally because as far as I am aware, He said nothing to indicate His views either way. You, on the other hand, specifically said "Our Lord took Genesis literally you know". That is a positive assertion and I'm simply asking you to back it up with something He said on the matter. |

There's more to Genesis than the Hexaemeron, Mairtin. So, while Our Lord may not have mentioned the six days, He certainly did make other references to Genesis: Matthew 19:4
From the beginning, ie, not several million years after the beginning. Matthew 24:37-39
