That's an excuse to not actually deal with what I asked.

What is meant by the following text:

Genesis 49:6
O my soul, come not thou into their secret; unto their assembly, mine honour, be not thou united: for in their anger they slew a man, and in their selfwill they digged down a wall.

Why did they dig down a wall?

You are taking an accusation that specifically dealt with Levi and Reuben's sin of murdering Shechemites, and applying it in some mystical way to how we handle religion?

This is what I am talking about. Whims and flights of fancy. Sorry, but when you say there is reincarnation in the bible, and show it with Elijah, and are presented with passages that refute reincarnation form the same bible, and say they are examples of corrupted text, you prove you have lost all sincere reasoning to know the truth of the Word.

It's like people get something in their heads about what they WANT to believe, and devise any excuse they can think of to relegate it away as error in order to maintain that DESIRED belief. That's why you couldn't answer Esaias when he asked HOW DO YOU KNOW you are on the right track? You have no foundation. You have no standard. When words of a religious text conflict your view, what is your standard for knowing those words are error? The sand of whim!
