453: Geographic variation caused New Testament canon variation from ...
... Notice that all the New Testament was in wide circulation by 100AD. The 5 "disputed" books, were only questioned in certain areas, whereas they were always accepted in others areas. We are not saying that all of these 5 disputed books were accepted in any one place at the same time, rather think of it as a mosaic and patchwork of acceptance. What is most important to note here, is that if we exclude these 5 disputed books from the discussion, we can safely argue that the rest of the New ... The process produced differing results in the various geographical regions. This eventually forced the emerging Catholic Church to issue authoritative lists of those writings that should be part of the Christian Bible and those that must be excluded.

454: Dr. David Kaiser, Against Biologic Psychiatry, Psychiatric Times ...
Psychiatric Times December, Dec. 1996, Vol. XIII, Issue 12 Against Biologic Psychiatry By David Kaiser, M.D. December 1996, Vol. XIII, Issue 12 As a practicing psychiatrist, I have watched with growing dismay and outrage the rise and triumph of the hegemony known as biologic psychiatry. Within the general field of modern psychiatry, biologism now completely dominates the discourse on the causes and treatment of mental illness, and in my view this has been a catastrophe with far-reaching effects on individual patients and the cultural psyche at large. It has occurred to me with forcible irony that psychiatry has quite literally lost its mind, and along with ... There will be no substitute for the difficult work of engaging with patients at the level of their lived experience, of helping patients piece together meaning and understanding in the place of their pain, fragmentation and confusion.

475: Trinity: Arius and the Nicene Creed
"Arianism: Up to this point the Trinitarian debate had taken place entirely in the West. We now move to the East, where the debate became a great controversy. It lasted sixty years, involved the entire eastern church, the western church in part, and occupied the attention of eleven emperors. The long discussion began with Arius, a presbyter in the church in Alexandria. He was a disciple of Lucian, who in turn was a student of Paul of Samosata, bishop of Antioch from 260 to 272. Paul was an Adoptionist (Dynamic Monarchian). He taught that the Logos or Reason of God dwelt in the man Jesus. This Logos had also been in Moses and in the prophets; in Jesus, ... deep-rooted Greek idea that God cannot be the creator of the material universe. (A Short History of the Early Church, Harry R. Boer, p113) From the outset, the controversy between both parties [Arius & Nicenes] took place upon the common basis of the Neoplatonic concept of substance, which was foreign to the New Testament itself. ... ...

476: Reincarnation is not taught in the Bible!
There needs to be kept in mind the big difference in the Biblical doctrine of life after death and in reincarnation; they are not the same. Old Testament passages that refute Reincarnation: Of such Old Testament characters as Adam, Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared, Enoch, Methuselah and Lamech the Bible says "and all the days of" giving their name "were" giving their ages (Gen. 5:5, 8, 11, 14. 17, 20, 23, 27, 31). If all their days were a certain number, then they did not have any more. If Methuselah had some days after 969 years, then 969 years were not "all the days of' him; they were just part of his days. 2 Sam. 12:23 Of the child born to David and ... Heb. 9:27 In this plain passage we read "as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment."

477: Stoneware: First Century Ritual Purity Stone Vessels
Both the material cultural remains and the text of the New Testament bear witness to these changes." (Dr. Scott Stripling) 3. Stoneware is unique to the first century and was used for ritual purity by the Jews. Standard pottery could not be reused and had to be broken after sacred use. Stoneware, the Pharisees reasoned, could be reused. Pottery is made from formed and fired clay. Stoneware is a cup or storage pot carved out of a single chunk of stone and there very expensive until you factor in that it could be reused. 4.

479: Which Old Testament text did Jesus prefer and quote from?
... Jesus, like all the Jews of the first century, divided the Old Testament into three "collections": the law, the prophets, the psalms. Jesus said: "These are My words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things which are written about Me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled." (Luke 24:44) Sometimes the sum of the Old Testament was referred to as two collections: the law and the prophets. It is Interesting, Jesus referred to Psalm 82:6 as "Law": "Jesus answered them, "Has it not been written ... Mark 11:27), who evidently readily perceived that the parable had been told "against them" and not against the general populace (cf. Mark 12:12).

The answer is found once again in the Isaiah Targum, which in place of "tower" and "wine vat" reads "sanctuary" and "altar" (cf. Isa 5:2 and Tg. Isa 5:2),3' institutions which ... ...

This might be the man about whom Moses, the legislator of the Jews wrote." So Josephus states that in 110 AD, there were many historians who recorded the ark as a matter of fact and that people visited it and collects bits of the wood as charms. It is also clear, that there is no place that Josephus makes any claim that he has seen the ark or has any direct knowledge from living people of his day that have seen Noah's Ark.
