Completely would be an overstatement, although significantly might not be.
For one, the example given: Mary was a young girl, a maid, but not necessarily a maiden (a virgin) because the language used didn't differentiate between the two.

So then Mary could've been a total whore? :lol2:

Trinitarian Christians believe that God the Father and God the Son are the same entity, so Mary gave birth to God who is also God's son.


Basically, yes.

Pretty sure most Christians are Trinitarian, I believe.

Funny you should say that, actually. There's a hypothesis that Mary was a prostitute, but that's pretty much been discredited I believe.

It's more logical to assume that Joseph got her pregnant before they got married, a sin that was usually punished with stoning someone to death. Their travel to Bethlehem and Egypt was probably the only way left to them to avoid death by religious law.

By the social norms of 1st century Palestine Mary was a total whore. ;)

Most, with the exception of Jehovah's Witnesses, Seventh Day Adventists, a few other modern Christian groups and the Arian Christians of the late Roman era. Mormons also reject Trinitarianism, but they're not traditional Christians to the same extent JWs or 7DA are.

So that just makes it sound like you're ignorant of pop music. Sounds similar to peoples opinion on Kar and death metal.

Sure, what you said was a joke, but what I'm getting out of this pretty much proved the point I was making in my head.

Though I can understand just not caring about it, sure, but I have a feeling you know a very narrow view of pop music based off of how it sounds. But who knows, that may just be how I see it from the perspective I've been given so far.

I think you mean the 'Second Coming Tour'.

It will occur whenever hell overflows into the mortal world. It'll be noticeable as there will be a distinct increase of fire, demons, and pain. ;)

You have that perspective because I don't bother talking about the pop music I respect and appreciate, because it's not a genre of music I have any enthusiasm for even when I can appreciate aspects of it. I've heard various pop acts from the 50s through the early 2000s; I've heard enough to know pop music doesn't appeal to me. Unlike Kar and death metal, pop music is everywhere, so one can't help but be exposed to it throughout their entire life. I have a feeling you're trying to make a nonsense point and then pat yourself on the back for being better than 'closed minded people' who don't open their minds up so wide that they end up with a bunch of garbage being tossed in regularly.

Or maybe you've just already been infected and quarantine procedures need to be taken to avoid spreading the disease.

Like I said, you probably did do your research, so I understand that. It just came off as that to me. And it sounds like you have listened to a fair amount to get a general idea, so yeah.

And I don't open my mind THAT wide :P. I'm very picky with what I like. But I just like a bit of everything. So I just automatically wonder how close-minded and ignorant of certain things people are when they're calling others close-minded and ignorant. Intentionally or not. And as I believe I said, including myself.

And I do think I'm better than some close-minded people, yes, but it depends on what it is. At least, mentally somewhere I can feel like that. I'm sure we all do at some point, though.

I dunno, I'm tired. Sometimes I just see certain things like that and I ramble.
