Manstealers--

Anyone who unjustly, and on purpose, works to eslave men...

You mean if I became a banker I would be a manstealer too?  Or that I am already a manstealer?  My point was that a manstealer does a particular thing which robs another man of his freedom.  And, that means, we were born to be free--and anyone who robs that freedom is a manstealer. 

But, then, I see Babylon as the entire corrupt society we live within, like fish out of water, trying to breathe a medium we were not created to breathe.

V.I.D.

You see now ...The question is not if it will be better without the church ,but will it be better if Murphy's laws never had eny effect on this world .
Some day i have to find this Murphy guy and tell him what is on my mind.  :grin: :grin:

To the original question:
At this point in time "church" needs to be defined.
As the Lord intends: No.
As Satan perverts: Yes.
