Milanya, thats a very interesting statement that brings to fore a question that I had put through to christians in another thread but it faded away without being addressed. So in christianity who decides what is Godly and christian and what is not?? who makes this changes??
Looking at your statement, being that the "bible" is wholesomely God inspired, why are you interprating its contents differently as per the dilemma raised.
