Yay, a fellow Melbournian!

But, uh, Conrad, your argument only applies to Christians who insist on taking a literalistic interpretation of the entire Bible -- I don't know anyone who takes that position. So, I can only really shrug my shoulders at your argument/challenge.

They're a bloody worry! They take it all literally when it suits them. As soon as they have to put their lives on the line, it becomes metaphorical.

I know a few literal interpreters at work in the psychiatric hospital I haunt. And they're not patients, they're fellow staff!

I haven't run the Mark & poison bit by them yet, but I will next time they start spouting.

Incidentally people, do you notice that the silence of Christians here at the moment is deafening?

Kally,

I keep wondering where in Southern California you live... I've always thought California in general, and in particular SoCal, was a heaven for us heathens!
