Hi all, need some help on how to edit my details so I can choose a user name, have contacted technical support some days ago but haven't as yet received a reply. I live in Wales; I am currently studying with the Open University taking a degree in Philosophy and Religious studies. After many years have started studying scripture and have become interested as to how/why there are so many interpretations of one book i.e. Bible. I find this schism between all the denominations a real stumbling block in coming to a conclusion as to whether there is a God. Apologise in advance if some of my questions and responses are 'basic' but have always believed if the Bible is the word of God, then it is written so everyone to understand (although I accept that Revelations might be exempt from this claim). At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to babes. Matt 11:25
Welcome. You will find you get a very diverse number of opinions on most subjects on this forum. I am an old-timer, in my 70s. I have been involved in religion of many flavors during my life-time. I have found that being amongst the Anglican Catholic Church in the USA is a good fit for me now. Again, welcome and I hope that you find what you seek. God bless.
