Would you please refer me to the sacred texts that Harvey is responsible for?lady of shallot wrote:Stahrwe:One would think that to know someone and enjoy them implies a personal relationship. Is it that unexpected that you cannot understand what you do not experience. You don't believe in God so how can you understand what it means to know God and enjoy Him?
I was not speaking of myself but of the Catholic and Protestant people I know.
Jozanny:
Well Harvey was real to Elwood P. Dowd (I think that is his name) in much the same way that Jesus and God are "real" to Christians. Difference being that Stahrwe and Dawn claim to have a "personal" relationship with them, but other Christians do not, in fact they do not know what that even means but as I said I do not know every person of faith in the world, only really well those I am related to.Nice try but not very imaginative. Harvey was not real so it was not possible to have a personal relationship with him.
Would you please list a few missionaries who have sacrificed personal fortune and comfort to help people?
As far as I know pookas are a classification of entities and not unique as Jesus is.
I am not going to discuss other people's Christian experience with you as I don't trust you to accurately report it, not that you are lying but that you are filtering. I would suggest that you invite your friends to participate on BT and we can discuss the Christian experience in depth and how it is different from having a pet pooka.
