Comments on: Was Moses stoned on Sinai?

An Israeli researcher thinks Moses could have been stoned. Forgive me if I feel that lacks credibility. Jesus charged the Jewish leaders with making God’s Word invalid by their tradition, which is just what this does by purporting to invalidate God’s Word. Higher learning does nothing to facilitate what is already known by millions of Bible students, nor does it improve one’s mind. “Always learning but never able to come to an accurate knowledge” says a Bible verse, in relation to those in opposition.

If Moses was stoned, how does the scientists explain the miracles experience by the ancient Israelites? How does the author explain the evidence at the site of Jebel Al Lawz (the very possible site of the real “Mount Sinai”)? There is much evidence archeological, linguistic, historical, and otherwise colloberating events in the Bible. I could go into much detail, but there is no point in doing so, because no matter the volume of evidence presented, people have their minds already made up.

As Jon pointed out, “I do believe in a power greater than myself, and I try to live under principles you might call Christian. But Nope, Iâm not a Christian. Nor are most of the people who call themselves Christians”

“Nor are most of the people who call themselves Christians”

This is very true. Those that claim the most to be jews christians and Muslins are usualy the least.

Arial Sharon, George Bush and Ben Laden are just bigots! Overwise they will not do all the killing and persecuting they are doing because it is against their religions!

It turn out that the Bible, the Evangile and the Coran teach all the same things. One of them is peace and tolerance.

You know the “You Shall not Kill!” Sond familliar?

I have friends of several religions, Jews, Muslim, various flavor of christianity, Boudism and Indouism. They all have few things in coment.

They don’t brag about their religion, they tolerate and respect the beliefs of others, they want to live with everyone.

We know how to enjoy life together.

This is why they are my friends. I know that most people are like my friends. It is time for all of us to band together and get ride of the extremists whatever they claim to be!

Science right now can not even begin to address the issue of god or the meaning of what we experience. Science can not even begin to understand consciousness. I can not prove to you or to myself that I am sentient but I know I am. This is the only thing I know that I can not prove. Is it not a real miracle?

The only thing I can say by using the argument of similarities is that people arround me are probably sentient too just like dogs cats, Cattle, Horses. . . I don’t know where it’s stop or if it does.

I don’t recognize the so call “Superiority” of the Human species; nor should I.

Nobody understand what is going on so religions and beliefs are something personal and that should be respected.

Religions should not be used to divide people, trigger and justify persecutions, wars and Holocausts.

This beeing say we have the right to investigate the story of Moise Jesus Mohamad and overs and try to make sense out of it. All these is par of our comon culture. Judaism and Islamist is also par of our culture just like the antiques religions and Jews and Muslims don’t have a monopol on it. The problem with “miracles” is that they can be explained by science. The hypothesis that Mose might have been stoned is perfectly sound. If someone need miracles to believe in his religion it’s mean that he is unsecure in his beliefs.

This is ironical because while some are frenetically searching for miracles, they don’t realize that we are living in one:

The Universe!

Well Jon, as an avid reader of your website I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that you wouldn’t offer a balanced set of articles on every topic. Since most of this website is anti-RIAA (and rightly so) I suppose we can’t ask for you to run another article in this particular case about something POSITIVE related to Christianity, since you’ve now crossed that invisible line (religion) in your postings. It’s apparent you aren’t of the religious bent, or at a minimum you aren’t Christian. This *is* relevant because if you (anyone) have a belief system you must be true to it at all times, not only on Sunday (or Saturday, if that’s your thing).

As is typical of big media, controversial sensationalism for the win. Welcome to the big boys.

must say this is an interesting article.
it could be possible but does not prove that there is no God.
one thing nature can prove is that there is always a bigger fish
in this case a higher power

Oh, GTFO with this anachronistic, biased nonsense.

As usual, tolerance is for everybody but Christians and Jews.

Anti-semitism FTL.

Good thing Moses wasn’t a Muslim
