@Leadfoot,
Fifth cellestial book of angels? Utopiatarian or something like that? Reincarnation on other planets? I talked religion with someone that has similar beliefs.

Not sure where that came from but guessing it was from my comment about 'growing into the nature of God'.

No, I think we only go around once, before 'game over is called. I don't know what a passing score is but if you make it, it looks like there is a 1000 year period given to fully mature into that image. Just my guess from Revelations.

@Smileyrius,
Its supposed to be a humourous statement Smiley, I've already posted it on this thread somewhere. I just felt bored and thought I'd post it again.
I hope Cobbler doesn't grumble about it, no offence or ill feelings intended...

@TheCobbler,
There are so many translations of the bible, one must wonder which one is the "word of god."

@cicerone imposter,
Are you implying they contradict each other? All those translations said exactly the same thing.

What's your point?

@Leadfoot,
I never said they "contradicted" each other. Where did you learn English?

The point is, if it's the word of god, how come there are so many interpretations of it?

You want contradictions? Better still, explain these contradictions:

In case you didn't get it, MY point was that there were not many interpretations in your link. There was only ONE ******* interpretation there. There were several TRANSLATIONS, but they all had the same meaning.

@cicerone imposter,
God is very old and has Alzheimer's (and a bit of dementia) so he would forget what he dictated to the "holy men" from one moment to the next but the holy men wrote it down anyway. Smile
