I am a Christian without all the answers and skeptical of those who think they have them.
A religious advisor needs to have been present in Jesus' time? Needs to have 'translated' the original text (?) of the Bible? Cannot trust anyone in the "religion business?" Seems like you have all of your answers already..all guarded by a great big wall.

I didn't want to enter this discussion. It made me annoyed with posters exercising their right to post anywhere and anytime even though the OP asked a question of Christians. I think she meant those who do not harbor all sorts of anti-religious feelings and clumsily veiled lack of belief in essentials.

Civility should have been followed, and her wishes respected - at least to the extent of refraining from such tiresome "questions" and comments.

I'm going to follow my own advice now and close the refrigerator door. Some of the contents are rotten.
