Subject: RE: What price the truth!!
Amos!Amos!Amos! Religion is not just another topic. Religion runs the lives of millions of people's . It has also ruined millions of people's lives. This is not a small subject! The Bible, and the insistance that it is a true word-for-word account, has led to the death of countless thousands. It has been waved high in the air as clivisations have been swept away. It has brought untold misery to millions across the centuries. It has filled children's minds with terrifying fears. No, this is not a small subject. A TV program, at prime-time, where all aspects of this debate were discussed and laid bare, would be watched by countless millions world-wide. And it wouldn't matter who might win or lose the argument, the damage to Christianity would enormous. The West couldn't afford to have its religion so exposed. That is why such a debate will be left to small groups of people - like on these pages.
