| Question | — |
Which Christian denomination(s) in 2023 still dislike(s) images? I heard about this sect on the news, but can't remember the term. Anyone know what I mean? Aniconism isn't the answer — because I know this noun already — but also because this faction allows their apostles to take selfies and portraits SOLELY ON A STRICTLY NECESSARY BASIS like to fulfil banking...

| Question | — |
Why does Job 39:19 use 'clothed' for 'Have you clothed his neck with thunder'? This use of 'clothe' feels kooky and unnatural to me. In 2022 Modern English, clothes usually refer to the body, not the neck. Can someone please make this natural and intuitive? Then again, English ISN'T my first language. I've never ridden a horse in my life. >New King James Version ... (more) |

| Question | — |
Why does the Bible repeatedly tout that sin begins in the heart — rather than the brain, mind, or other bodily organs? 1. Undeniably, the heart can't physically cause the sins quoted below, as in the Matthew 15:18-20. Crimes against the person (manslaughter) are committed usually with the limbs and hands. False pretenses, fraud, perjury with the vocal tract. Sexual crimes with the penis or vagina. Last but not l... (more) |

| Question | — |
Why was blood used, or believed, to consecrate entities? 1. Why did worshippers believe that blood "make 'sacred' or 'holy'"? 2. Why did religionists believe that consecrating something with blood "render a thing inviolable from profane use of men and evil influence of men or demons"? 3. How's any of this related, at all, to the blood of Christ? ... (more) |
