Great discussion on here and some good information - thank you Carl and Dawn Marie - I too enjoy listening to many of the Christian speakers that you mentioned. Golfingnut, sometimes you confuse me too. You seem kind of combative in your questioning but I have to believe that you are truly seeking answers for yourself. I say that because looking back, I probably appeared that way to others before becoming a believer myself 20 years ago. You all have a local Community Bible Study (CBS) at New Covenant United Methodist Church in The Villages. It is not affiliated with the church, or with any church for that matter, it just uses the facilities. Unfortunately, I think there is only a women's group meeting there now, but the organization does have men's groups (I believe there is one in Ocala). It is an in depth bible study open to anyone - all ages, all denominations, believers and unbelievers, at any level of knowledge. When I started attending a study years ago, I had very little knowledge of the Bible. If interested, check out the organization at their website - communitybiblestudy.org
