If you believe in the Bible, which it appears you do, how can you ignore the literalness of the disciples seeing, touching, and talking with Jesus after He was raised (physically) from the dead. Paul in the epistles explains that if we believe in Jesus and He did not (materially) rise from the dead, then we are to be most pitied. The significance of Jesus' resurrection? ALL OF CHRISTIANITY STANDS ON IT!!!!! It means we serve a living God!! JESUS!!! That sets Him apart from Mohammed and any other "man". It means we can know Jesus today because He LIVES! So what if the Bible "appears" to conflict with science? I don't really know of anything that does conflict as of yet. (here comes the responses, I can see them now... :) ). Make your choice, believe in ONENESS or whatever you want, but don't include Jesus because He didn't, and doesn't teach that! He said, I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE, NO MAN COME TO THE FATHER BUT THROUGH ME. karen
