What totally amazes me is the fact that I know of many highly intelligent people who are Doctors of Medicine, Law, Physics, Chemistry, Accountants and many more who have not only proven to have a high I.Q. with advance degrees and who have also passed their State Boards. However, ironically these normally smart professionals are extremely “dumbed down” by swallowing far-fetched stories (that they would clearly have rejected in their daily business lives) simply because they are labeled “religious”. In this way, these highly intelligent professionals function much like autistic savants, only in reverse in that while they are usually brilliant in their professional fields, they tend to have little cognitive skills in reality when exposed to wild religious stories they swallow hook, line and sinker! Thus, the theme of my Post in reading the Eden account with some logic: New REVISION in Bible! MARY NO MORE VIRGIN ! Revision: About That ‘Virgin’ Thing… By Alexandra Silver March 04, Provided by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops Headline writers are having fun with stories about a new translation of the Bible, which has been in the works since 1994 and will finally be released on March 9 One change may set off alarms with traditionalists, in a passage many Christians believe foreshadows the coming of Christ and his birth to a virgin. The 1970 version of Isaiah 7:14 says “the virgin shall be with child, and bear a son, and shall name him Immanuel.” The 2011 text refers to “the young woman” instead. It elaborates that the original Hebrew word, almah, may, or may not, signify a virgin. REVISE: What is the meaning? revise [ri-vahyz] verb (used with object), revised,revising. 1. -to amend or alter: -to revise ones opinion. 2. -to alter something already written or printed, in order to make corrections, improve, or update: -to revise a manuscripts ! The Bible has been rewritten, revised, and altered so many times that it is hard for me to understand why so many call this pottage the Word of God. Do Muslims continually revise their holy books? Bible is A Work in Progress! REVISED BY ANY TOM, DICK & HARY Do not add to these words lest He reprove you and you be proved a liar.

Finally you have learned that the Mother of God prayed during the life time of Christ our Lord, and you have accounts even from several holy Fathers of the Church that the Mother of God prayed on a daily basis. Why do they worship raven images when the bible specifically bans it? Why do they worship Mary and the saints when the bible says Thou shall have no other gods but me? Confluence of STUPIDITY
