All.
Yes forget me Msdog, in an intellectual debate you couldn't hold a candle to me. You are much better at spewing trash out the side of your mouth that adds nothing of value to this board.
(edit)- you think I'm a her? LOL, thats comical.

17"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. 19Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven.
"Until everything is accomplished" Jesus lived under the teaching and laws of the old testament and old covenant. That all changed at the time he died. That is what he is saying by "until everything is accomplished" Jesus came for no other reason than to have a ministry and then to die for those that put their faith in him. At the time he died, the old covenant was replaced by a new one, as I stated above. For instance, The Bible/God's Law does not call for the sacrifice of animals anymore, as Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice, that is just one change I am pointing out that shows a clear difference between the old law and the new law. He did not come nullify the old law, but to establish a new one, and by doing so, certain aspects of the old law became unnecessary (sacrifice), while other's were changed (unclean animals, sabbath, baptism)

Let's get back to the skiing.

and KD- your vail pics are incredible, I've never skied in snow half that deep. Storm riding rules

It may not be the reason but it has undeniably been misused by many people to convince others to go to war for them.
This is a major distinction though so I would have to agree with you.
