Peace be with you!
Quote:Wael, I think both FHC and Steve clearly see the point you and I are trying to make here, but they dont want to openly saying it.
I can only speak on behalf of myself - especially considering I'm just reading the posts adressed to me & wouldn't have a clue what other conversations in this thread are about - but I feel as though I've provided a fair & adequate expression of my beliefs regarding this matter.
Quote:As I said I discussed this point in particular, including song of the songs..etc on another thread, namely, Arabic bible, and clearly asked if christians find it fine that the bible contains porno language. One can never deny that this language is inappropriate. Once I asked a jewish woman, i worked with like 17 years ago here in Egypt, who was originally a Protestant. I asked her if she feels it fine to give her little daughter the bible, as we were discussing the culutre differences in bringing up children what to say and when. She said I know what u mean, that is why I dont consider both OT and NT as sacred books but rather legendry of the old people.
Why do you so easily understand & accept this lady's view but not mine? Is it because she agrees with you & I don't? Well, I'm sorry, Muslimah, but my aim here is not to supress truth & teach error in order to seek your approval. You may not like what I have to say & that's fine, but believe me what you see is what you get - everything I've written is what I know to be true & what I live for.
If you'd like to know how Holy Mother Church deals with the issue of sex (which is not a tabu subject in the Holy Bible or in the Catholic Faith) then these links might be useful:
