comment Why do we use words like “servants” to mean “slaves”?
I didn't know about the "before the 20th century" part so I found your question useful. Only a strong historian would know these things.

comment Why is it hard for a rich man to go to heaven?
@FFCoder: It's a "figure of speech" for something that's very hard to do.

comment Are people who “think a lot about” God, Jesus, right and wrong more likely to go to heaven?
Fair enough. To ask the question "your way," is someone who "thinks a lot about God and Jesus and right and wrong" more likely to "believe in God's son [and therefore meet] the condition for eternal life?"

comment Are people who “think a lot about” God, Jesus, right and wrong more likely to go to heaven?
@SoftwareMonkey: I consider those acts "two sides of the same coin." As I remember, Nathan accused David of "stealing" Bathsheba from Uriah, just as the rich man stole the lamb from the poor man.

comment How is Hal Lindsey regarded in the Christian faith?
I tried to improve the question by asking WHICH Christian groups considered Lindsey's thesis valid or invalid. Even if his (or another) doctrine is "controversial," I want to know that.

@El'endia Starman: OK, if this question is not a good fit for this site, could we "migrate" it hermeneutics per Alypius' suggestion?

comment Have we seen some of the horseman of the apocalypse?
European imperialsim, Communism, and OPEC ARE "worldwide issues and not limited in scope." We've ALREADY seen these "all happen." Will admit that we haven't YET seen the pale horse of death; am not looking forward to it, but even then, the Black Plague may be a precursor.

comment Where does Jesus stand on war and peace?
@Caleb:I have edited the question to make it more focused, and to try to highlight the paradox of apparent contradictions. Can you re-open it in its edited form?

comment Do not allow a sorceress/witch to live?
@HedgeMadge: I lost two points of reputation for my one line post. If it is deleted, I should get back those two points, right?
