Wow - he speaks truth, doesn't he? (No, I'm not going to stir up a Dalai Lama mess again, but that would be fun, wouldn't it?)
yeah matt, that dalai lama mess would be interesting if it were stirred up again. though i find it interesting that inder, a non christian, quotes the christian bible. i'm not used to seeing it, but alas, i have a very limited perspective

speaking of the dali lama, you never posted your retort to mitch's comments matthew. I was interested to see those.
Interesting stuff ... I am reminded of the trilemma from Lewis' "Mere Christianity" ...
"A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said [about Himself] would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic -- on a level with the man who says he is a poached egg -- or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God; or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon, or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come away with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to."
Praying that the author of the article you reference will come to his senses and fall at the feet of Jesus.

One interesting questions that comes to mind: can a non-believer, who presumably doesn't have the Holy Spirit living within in him, be able to correctly ascertain what the Bible is saying without the Spirit's prompting?
Excellent point Matthew...Which sort of brings us around to the salvation issue again doesn't it?
Bob...I too would like to see Inder make a profession of faith!
