Does Increase in Knowledge Increase Inteligence?

There are some do~gooders who would save the planet from pollution but would free Barabbas over Christ time and time again. There are some who would work toward the perfect car, even in their dreams, but should the least thing go wrong, scrap it complete ly. There are some who would divorce the critic that they so feverishly married, then have him incarcerated for getting angry while she lives in adultery with a fornicator.

Earthlings have the reputation or habit of killing God^s messengers ~ it is well documented historical fact. Today we live in a society, here in Canada, where that ^could not happen^. Why put a man to death when you can have him self destruct through ne glect and abuse, shunning and false accusations or rebuking his perspective and dictating his thoughts? They are mere messengers. Where is the threat? What is there to fear? Does anyone truly care what any man says about anything? Why this insistence on being double minded, on having double standards? How can killers deem themselves better than mere messengers?

Hatred is the most clear sighted next to genius.
~ Claude Bernard (1813~1878)

Since when was genius found respectable?
~ Elizabeth Browning (1806~1861)

The world is made up of fools and knaves, but both irreconcilable foes to truth; the first being slaves to a blind credulity, which we may properly call bigotry, and the last too jealous of that power they have usurped over the folly and ignorance of the others, which the establishment of the empire of reason would destroy.
~ George Villiers (1628~1687)

We would rather be ruined than changed
We would rather die in our dread
Than climb the cross of the moment
And let our illusions die
~ W. H. Auden (1907~1973)

Then the jury went out, Mr. Blindman, Mr. Nogood, Mr. Malice, Mr. Lust, Mr. Heady, Mr. Highminded, Mr. Liveloose, Mr. Enmity, Mr. Liar, Mr. Cruelty, Mr. Hatelight, and Mr. Implacable; who each gave his private verdict against the accused who afterwards wa s brought in guilty by unanimous decision before the judge.
~ John Bunyan (1628~1688)

^Tis as dangerous to be sentenced by a Physician than a Judge.
~ Sir Thomas Browne (1605~1682)

I have been diagnosed as having a dillusion (delusion) disorder.

Have a look at this verse. ^In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.^ (Matthew 28:1, King James Version) This verse, when analyzed shows that the people at the time of Christ ended the day at dawn and began the next day at dawn, even the Sabbath. This verse also shows, when studied in context, that Jesus was already raised from the dead at this time, since His tomb was found to be empty moments latter. Therefore Jesus rose from the dead on the Sabbath, not on the first day of the week.

For those of you who are not aware, Christians preach and believe that Jesus was raised from the dead on a Sunday, and the Jews and Sabbatarians observe the Sabbath from Friday sunset to Saturday sunset. (These are generalizations of course.)

Here is a concept commonly used by die hard ^Christians^: always have a quetion ready for the messenger in order to try to stump or confuse him. This is not a Biblical concept or teaching, it is merely a tactic.

I might have a delusion disorder, but I am not the only one?
