I respect your opinion. However any christian worth his salt would never base his appreciation of Bible text on faith alone. There has to be proof that an account happend, and that proof should come from the scriptures. It is true that some scriptures do require faith and those scriptures are prophecy not yet fulfilled. However it is because the scriptures are proven factual that's what produces the product of the faith that i have. It's been nice talking about it though. Thanks for the interchange.

By that same token, my truth or your truth may not be THE truth, but our faith makes us believe in it!
