"I know you directed this towards Tyler, but i would be interested in your knowledge about the Bible. I've been reading it on and off for a while but I've reached a point were I actually want to sit and read at least a page a day. "
Victoria Vann replied to James M. Martin's discussion The Trouble With Prophecy
"Self-fulfilling prophecy isn't real prophecy anyway. I can predict that I will be successful in the future and then work my butt of to make it happen. Did my 'prophecy' come true?
These Dominionists sound like the worst to me, the…"
Victoria Vann replied to Aria Royce's discussion What do you think of teachings of Jesus?
"In so far I think that some are decent, while others only make sense to a believer. Then there are others that make no sense no matter who you are. However the point I think most people have made is that the good teachings of Jesus aren't…"

Lost Sheep, Lost Coin...are we really lost?
Went to my friend's church tonight and they discussed the parables about how one sheep out of one-hundred is lost, and even though there are still 99 sheep in the fold, it is still within your best interest to get the lost sheep.

Mark Schwab replied to Victoria Vann's discussion The Benefits of Religious Friends
"It sounds like your friend needs someone like you as much as you need her, and that is a good thing,i think. You get right to the heart of the problem when you say "nothing would make her change her mind". That is the most frustrating…"

"Its a shame they believe so hard that the guilty cage they sit in is there form of "freedom". ah well, best of luck to you and your buddy, one day the voice of reason might call:)"
Victoria Vann replied to Victoria Vann's discussion The Benefits of Religious Friends
"I'm pretty skeptical of her changing her view, she's already told me nothing would make her change her mind....
It is frustrating to see good friends torture themselves. She's always talking about how sinful she is and I want to throw…"
