    @JL: The Bible should tell you more about yourself than anything else.

    What was Jesus answer??? (backed by scripture?)
    He appealed to John the Baptist, who himself had been prophecied...by Scripture.

    It's a simple equation. When a person wants to believe whatever he/she wants to believe, then that person will cut loose from any objective standard as much as possible.
