In saying "God is Love, I'm not misquoting Jesus. I'm quoting Paul.
My logic is not syllogistic. Good is a synonym of Quality, and the word
"good" is a form of the word "God". If you read Persig a bit more closely,
you'll see that he agrees.
I don't need to read other biblical scholars. I happen to be one myself.
God, according to the bible, is neither subject nor object, but the creator
of both.
I wonder about Mr. Ehrman's special biblical understandings and how he came
upon them. It would suggest that millions of Christians the world over are
ignoring (ignorant of) his truths, or just to dumb to have discovered them
for themselves.
I've read some scathing remarks directed toward Christianity here. I'd be
glad to enter into a dialog with those who find it to be dangerous or evil
or merely a vehicle of oppression.
Christianity isn't perfect, but I wont apoligise for the historic evil
people's misreadings have produced in it's name.
What I will do is to suggest that one cannot believe in "Quality" without
"Faith". Scientifically speaking, Quality suffers from the same problem God
does; neither can be measured.
If you're willing to throw God out with such zeal, you cannot be
surprised when others react in like manner to your own belief in Quality.
