[right][snapback]919605[/snapback][/right] [/quote] I live on a dirt road and the next building (it's actually on our land) is a Church of God or maybe Assembly of God, I don't know (how bad is that it about three hundred yards from my house) Anyway, they've had 3 or 4 pastors and none of them have been younger than 80 and when they fiirst come they'll walk over if we're outside and start talking and this ALWAYS how we end the conversation after about 2 minutes: Pastor Us P: Well y'all sure are welcome to come over and worship withus on Sundays and Thursdays. U: Thank you but we go to church somewhere else P: Oh, where do go? U: To Catholic church in town. P: OH, the [I]Catholic[/i] church (takes about 3 steps backwards) Well, I've got to go now. Nice talkin' to ya. Turns and leaves.
God Conquers Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 haha... I guess... However, I think both are pretty much the same. He's your personal savior who you have a personal relationship with. Christ saved humanity but he also saved me individually (personally). It's one of those necessary paradoxs that Chesterton's always babbling about!
