“I think i will leave the previous discussion alone now since you are insistent on thinking i’m a liberal, and am not willing to tell me which of Jesus words in the gospel are his direct actual words.”

I thought Cheryl answered this well. They are all Jesus’ words, whether you want to call them “direct”, “actual” or anything else. Cheryl has said that differences do not equal contradictions, so why do you ask her to pick and choose? Cheryl in not throwing any of Jesus’ words into question, and has said as much. If you think Cheryl needs to pick and choose, perhaps you should, after all you are the one claiming this can be done in Genesis. Do you see the situation?

And because you are claiming that some words (or at least a word) in Gensis is not “actual” Cheryl has likened your methadology to liberal methadology (I do not think Cheryl has called you a liberal).
