It is a parable for salvation. The nobleman in the story is Jesus. If one does not follow, serve, and obey Jesus, he will suffer eternal damnation.

That's certainly one legitimate reading of it.

Matthew 5:17–18

And Jesus said, "Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished."

Thanks for proving my point. If you know a bit about Christ's teachings, you'd realize the major load this brought to the contemporary Jews. In that scripture are some of the words that damned Jesus' fate to an eventual death.

In addition, what did Jesus mean when he said he was come to fulfill the law?

How do you read the " not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law"?

I PM'd my answer to you as Adam_Poe needs to answer your question.

It means exactly what it says; Jesus did not come to abolish the laws of the Old Testament. If the laws are not abolished, then they still stand.

But I don't like having a beard, though slaves from foreign lands could be useful.

So what is the reason behind building a mosque? I have no problem with it, but then again, I'm not in USA.

I've asked that too, I think reason could be very important.

I'm sure I've explained it a couple of pages back.

That's not what it means, at all.

If you're not ethnically jewish most laws from the bible don't apply.

so far all terrorists have been muslim. and that should say something, if anything.

How soon we have forgotten the Oklahoma bombing and others. The 2nd most brutal terrorist act in US history and was carried out by a christian.

Oh yeah, tell that to the people that try and use the Bible to justify modern laws.

Not sure if Timmy was shouting "God is great" or if he ever tried to use religion as a cause. Think he was just out to get the 'big bad gov'ment'.

Though personally, I think he was a patsy.

Look up the christian identity movement. Mcveigh and other nuts, I would say they are as dangerous as radical muslims.

Well, maybe orthodox jews. I'm an atheist, it's all equally meaningless to me. But when people act like the Koran is a brutal document... yes, yes it is, but no more so than the bible. Personally I think the Koran would have the be the more morally correct of the two.

Pat Condell obviously doesn't like the idea.

I would not like any religious monument at ground zero... but I think a mosque is the best option if we need one. It would show the US stands united against terrorism.

How would it do that by building a Mosque?

It would show that the US doesn't harbor hatred against it's muslim citizens, while a church for instance could mean we were trying to push away all who shared the religion of the terrorists in prejudice.
