      > Whether or not a nonbeliever would care is moot.
      That's what bugs me about Bibliophiles, "Bible-worshippers." I was replying to a nonbeliever, so it most definitely is not moot. Look at the context, man.

      I'm not a Bibliophile, but I'm curious about something. You say that NT [New Testament] was translated from Greek to English. But, the Greeks had to at least do translations from x (Hebrew?) to Greek. You don't mean that Paul and Friends spoke Greek, do you?

      > Where in the Bible does it say the soul is immortal? Or that
      > suffering is eternal?
      Not being a Bibliophile these many years, I don't really know where it says the soul is immortal. I was raised to believe in the immortal soul but I don't remember where it would be.

      I don't have a relationship with God, I have a relationship with a real woman. Not a Bibliophile but a believer in what God considers unforgiveable.
