And the Rastafari think Haile Selassie is God. What does this have to do with the thread?

Is that a tractor beam in the OP?
And who is in command of the mother ship? The Father? You managed to mention your hobby horse Marcion again. |

Sure. The gospel and the letters of Paul. Unfortunately the only copy that remains happens to be one where the previous borrowers put in a lot of additional notes and ideas. But hopefully you can figure out the original text buried underneath the marginalia.

No stephan. I admit I have not been able to locate any original text of Marcion in the gospel and letters of Paul.
If you have located such text you should be so kind as to share it with all of us who are much less erudite than you . |

That Marcion guy did he exist?
I trust that Constantine did exist for sure. Could we not see him as a kind of Muhammad? Without Constantine no Catholic church or Christianity. |
