Mithras slew the bull and ended the age when the Lamb came up during the Spring Equinox due to the process of the Equinoxes every 2190 years or so. <br /><br />The Golden calf story in Exodus is the OT message that the age of Taurus and it's religion was over. <br /><br />It was no coincidence that Jesus found a Ram or lamb in the bush around 2000 BC to be the symbol of sacrifice for the next 2000 years until it ended with the lamb of God dying and the end of that age.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-4538132476647219332011-05-20T16:13:33.645-07:002011-05-20T16:13:33.645-07:00Mr. Maynard tends to respond to those he disagrees...Mr. Maynard tends to respond to those he disagrees with at about a second grade level at times.

It simply says the father knows and is the only one who does. Take it up with the translators if you think it is fictional. <br /><br />Secondly, I am not an atheist. I rest firmly in "I'm not sure, the God of the Bible is not all the God there is."

Comedy writers will be thinking up jokes(Or maybe they already have, those naughty unbelievers!). Comedy is a great way to cope with religious craziness.<br /><br />But, what will Harold Egbert Camping say or do on the 22nd?

And then he'll start singing, "Tomorrow, Tomorrow, I love ya, Tomorrow, You're only a day away!", accompanied my Mr. Hoehner on harmonica.<br /><br />d) He will say, "There must have been a hemorrhoid in the way when I pulled that date out of my wrinkly ass."<br /><br />e) He will blame it on the optician who gave him his current pair of glasses.<br /><br />f) He will blame it on a low battery in his calculator.<br /><br />g) He will blame it on the shock of finding out he's Arnold Schwarzenegger's grandfather's secret love child.<br /><br />h) He will blame it on Jesus's short-form birth certificate being a forgery, and then become a commentator on Fox news, and a WorldNetDaily columnist.<br /><br />i) He'll take off, for parts unknown, in world's most expensive RV with a cadre of hookers inside, and there will be a GONE CAMPIN' sign on the door of his house.<br /><br />- Jimmy DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-63591061350913787532011-05-20T04:53:29.913-07:002011-05-20T04:53:29.913-07:00The COGs have been in so many gun laps, they have ...The COGs have been in so many gun laps, they have finally run out of bullets...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-36082568891596953702011-05-20T04:52:30.317-07:002011-05-20T04:52:30.317-07:00Hi Richard,
