Gas on the fire
Scientist: Jesus May Have Walked on Ice
By BILL KACZOR, Associated Press Writer
Stories like this are just going to add fuel to the already self kindled fire of the religious rights "Attack on Christianity."
This so-called attack is nothing but a bunch of white men wanting to be thought of as being discriminated against. About eighty percent of Americans consider themselves Christians, so who is attacking them? I would say a HUGE majority of lawmakers call themselves Christians, and the man in the White House thinks he is the chosen one. The Supreme Court is 80% Christian. Who is attacking you and what power do they actually have?
I hate it when people yell discrimination when a situation arises that did not go the way they wanted.
She smacked the cracker because he did not recognize her, and now racism is to blame.

My favorite part of this story - the scientist is getting hate mail from Christians! Doesn't sending hate mail disqualify you as a Christian? What would Jesus Do? Answer: Send threatening mail to people who disagreed with him. He did it all the time, in between his violent peace rallies...
I’ll admit that if this is true, it makes Jesus’ feat a little less impressive, as I have seen both my brother-in-law and my dog perform this same miracle on several occasions.
But really, have you ever heard of such a ridiculous study? Can you believe a university put money behind this? In all honesty, the point of stories of Jesus’ miracles have nothing to do with fact and more to do with faith. Nof, for all of his intelligence and research, doesn’t get it. The truth is, it doesn’t matter if Jesus walked on water, ice or jello, or if the whole story is made up.
I suppose if you are a fundamentalist, this may be of slight interest to you, but in the objective, scientific world, determining the actual validity of each story of Jesus’ miracles is of equal importance to figuring out whether or not those reindeer actually fly. And the answer is, they do and they don’t.
Next they will try to prove that Jesus did not turn water to wine. What will it mean if Jesus was not an enabler to his alcoholic friends?
