If I agreed that it was a completely fictitious event then I would agree with your statement.

Man there's nothing like a bunch of nuts sitting around pouring through obscure, cryptic (aka meaingless) scibblings from the grand old age of no running water and life expectancies of 35 to debate when a god who never existed is going to drop down from the other god/same god's sky condo to visit us all over again especially when other jeezes culters of the same ilk have been doing the same thing for literally thousands of years with zip for results.

Just FYI, life is short and there's no reward for doing this so spend your weekends more wisely.

I am glad you got that off your chest. It was very constructive.

the only thing that seems nuttier to me is to pour thru the same scribblings when you know they are not true.

Trout

Thanks. Oddly enough, I think it was the most constructive piece of advice so far in this thread. Feel free to ignore it though as you have now been subjected to the "real" True Word and can only be saved through your own actions.

Muuuhahahaha!

I'm not pouring through anything if you mean me. That would be like debating the merits of the obviously deep mataphorical truths of "three blind mice" as opposed to "little bo peep" and well, that really seems sort of pointless and silly.

Christianity being what Christianity is, the evidence of all of history, and of their now present testimony, tells us that Christians have always had "visions" of their icon, some report seeing him revealed to them on burnt tortillas, or in the oil slicks on mud puddles, or through staring at the sun, or at cloud formations until their beleaguered eyes and minds interpret what they want to see, into being what they want to see, then attempting to convince others that the "vision" that they claim to have "seen" or to have "understood" has some basis in reality outside of those delusions and convictions that are fabricated within their own minds, and are being aided and abetted by other like minded practitioners within their cult.

yet, here you are in the biblical criticism and histiry forum.

Trout

True. I just can't help bringing the truth and the light to people sometimes I guess. Call me a missionary for reality perhaps?

sschlichter

ah! the apostle to the nuts.

Sounds like you wandered into the wrong forum, amigo. Given this viewpoint, one wonders why you bother to read the threads here, let alone post. If you have nothing of substance or relevance, please avoid cluttering up the threads for those who do.

Thanks in advance,

Better parties though I guarantee it.

But I'll scamper off to clutter elsewhere
