Adam's conversational relationship with God would include the first words ever spoken by a human being, so I don't think any religion could predate it. :tounge:
Except it wasn't really a religion until someone created the Torah, which wasn't until about 2000 BCE.
A religion doesn't have to be institutionalized. :tounge:
And the true worship of God has never exactly been just another "religon" anyway.
Only because they knew we would win, and they wanted the spoils of war.
Eh no... we were invaded and suffered 20 million in casulaties about as much as the entire axis front.
The reason they fought with the Nazis was because Hitler broke the nonagression pact. The reason they allied themselves with us is because they wanted to come out of the war with more power.
In the late 1700s-early 1800s, Spain controlled New Orleans, the mouth of the Mississippi River and the source for much of Kentucky's commerce. The Kingdom of Spain had closed the New Orleans ports for political reasons and Secretary of State Jefferson intended to repair good relations with the King of Spain even at the cost of Kentucky's economy by allowing this. Governor Isaac Shelby wrote a series of correspondences to Jefferson, iterating that Jefferson represented the American people and their interests and not the interests of the King of Spain, and that if Jefferson would continue to value the interests of Spain over those of his people, Shelby would use his own means to reopen the harbor. President Washington acquired American rights to shipping in New Orleans soon after.
...you have the coolest family ever
It's probably just that he's traced his family back further than the rest of us, and so knows more about its cool heritage.
Just because we don't need it doesn't make it not wrong. I don't need to be on LMBE right now, but I am, and it's not a sin.
It does say "fruit of the vine," but that could mean grape juice. I'm sure it's not what Jesus was drinking, but it still works for communion. Maybe it does say wine in Greek, I don't know, but my point is that communion is symbolic and grape juice does not change the meaning.
It Involves the Old Covenant, plus nowhere is it found in the bible the Instruments were used in worship.
It does in Psalms, which I already showed you. Being in the Old Testament does not make it irrelevant. Jesus quoted Old Testament scripture to fight temptation in the New Testament.
Earlier you said it was wrong to make Christmas illegal, now you're saying it's wrong to celebrate Christmas at all? And why would it be wrong to celebrate Jesus' birth, or his Resurrection?
I celebrate Christ's birth and Resurrection everyday, we all should, I"m saying its not the part of Christians to make laws for Non-Christians.
It's not law that you have to celebrate Christmas and Easter.
We still sin, but we are not evil because we are made righteous through Christ. Holy does not mean sinless, it means set apart, we are holy because we are set apart by God to fulfill His plans.
But Holy is without Sin, we have sin, were evil and we continue to sin, were evil. I am, you are no one isn't.
Holy: "dedicated or consecrated to God or a religious purpose;" "sacred." It doesn't mean sinless, it means set apart. It doesn't mean better than, it means different than.

Religion does not require a book to be real. And I think you mean BC.
Jefferson is hard to deal with, because he did have some moral issues, but also was beautifully eloquent in basically summing up America He was a mixed bag
He bought the Louisiana Territory, which was a great decision, so that's good. He's not especially bad, but he was a hypocrite.
That is an example of a good thing done by a bad person, then.
Well, we're all related through Adam, and more directly Noah.
So that means I'm related to you guys. Maybe Keplers is my 42nd cousin, twice removed, once added back.
Yep, and maybe William Shakespeare was my great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather's 6th cousin.
