three guesses and the first two don't count.

Oh, man, I must have misread the question. Sorry. I am not a singer either. Played a little guitar but definitely not a singer. I can understand how people are singers right from the womb. Either you have it or you dont.

Perhaps he was referring to the pyromaniac who lit his hair on fire. At the confessional he sez"forgive me Father for I have singed".

I said, "... a buring bush moment ..." not " if you saw a burning bush talking." The difference is that I use the phrase in a metaphorical sense and it is a very important difference.

Moses saw a phenomenon that was inexplicable with the known physical world of his day. That is by definition, miraculous. So using that as a metaphor, if we had a "supernatural ectoplasmic manifestation" (thank you, Ghost-Busters!) accompanied by a communication of some sort, that were both scientifically inexplicable, how would we react? Would we deny the reality of what we had witnessed and force ourselves to conform to the "modern" consensual reality?

It is a wonderful question not unlike "The Allegory of the Cave."

I don't think a literal or metaphorical instance makes a difference. There is always the issue of how to interpret an event, miraculous or not. I'm not advocating conformity to any consensus. I'm saying to interpret an unusual or inexplicable event either in terms of God, or nature can be a creative act of the self or an acceptance of consensus views of the divinity. And, there's always the possibility of "Wow, unbelievable! I have no way of understanding that."
I don't think it it is possible to have any experience which totally excludes the possibility of asking the question, "Am I just interpreting an unusual event in terms of God?" Doubt is always present with us. There's no way to exclude the possibility that faith can be self-delusion.

Ditto the cave.

At least shameless husseys have nothing to lose.

This fellow didn't deny it.

That's one of my all time favorite movie scenes.

I must be a shameless husser. Is that the male equivalent of a hussey?

None of you are "sinners". No such thing as sin, it's all a big scam perpetuated for thousands of years. Time to wake up.

A hussey without sham would be as rare as an honest man.

As this is as troll thread, I hope no one will object if it goes off course (a little). This is the way I get rid of Jehovah's witnesses who visit my neighborhood--ask them if they are sinners. I have only done this 3X, but have yet to get an answer, and they get frustrated when i tell them to answer the question or leave. Any Jehovah's witnesses here can explain why they won't answer the question?

I met some babes at church.
