The Aramaic Bible Web Log is a forum for discussing the origins of the Bible and the value of translating the Scriptures from the Ancient Aramaic Texts of the Ancient Church of the East directly into English. I believe that the Ancient Aramaic language is the true scribal language of Scriptures. My translations are posted at http://www.v-a.com/bible/. If you send me appropriate questions or comments, I will post them on this Web Log and attempt to answer or respond to them as best as I can. I will only post what I consider proper. I will not include e-mail addresses, but only your name as you wish it to appear on this blog. To send me an e-mail you may use the FORM MAIL at the bottom of this blog.
Segregation of Church and State
Only God can decide who lives and who dies. Everything is according to his will. If Terri lives then it’s by the grace of God and not by the will of man. But we can see the liberals in favor of letting her die, because there are so many others who need the urgent care and they’ve decided that they know best. It’s democracy at play: let the people decide. Keeping the girl alive depends on tax payer dollars. She’s been in this state for fifteen years. The tax payers have more important priorities. It’s not fair to society to let her live anymore. However, from a Christian perspective, it’s not up to us to decide who lives and who dies. The President and the US Congress have signed a bill to let Terri live, but the judges in Florida don’t agree and the Supreme Court doesn’t want to ruffle their feathers. So now we have this impasse, this reluctance to do the right thing.
Although Christianity is under attack in the world, we need to stay objective in discussing the origins of the Scriptures. The Internet provides an opportunity for free discussions. Thank you for participating and expressing your opinions, as I have.
