You are repeating bare assertions. This is done because no refutation has been made.

When a poster asserts refutation and this is the ONLY piece of information in the claim, this is done to wink and signal his supporters to go along with the fraudulent claim of refutation.

The ONLY people who assert questions about Dr. Scott's scholarship are persons who have never exposed themselves to his research.

The link provided is a sham - show me ONE instance of Dr. Scott's evidence being refuted.

Actually the link provided is a pretty thorough refutation of the article on pyramids you posted, and as I understand it Dr. Scott agrees with the stuff from your article. Of course, if I'm wrong and Dr. Scott makes no such claims about the pyramids then tell me.

That post contains the refutation I'm referring to.

Could you explain why Dr. Scott has not published the results of his scholarship in any professional, peer-reviewed journals?

Here is a good article on Scott

"At first blush, w. Eugene Scott, as he spells his name, seems miscast as God's renegade salesman. The 64-year-old preacher's son holds a Stanford Ph.D., fancies himself an intellectual, a philosopher, an avid bibliophile and philanthropist. But a closer look reveals a fascinatingly complex character: Scott has no formal education in theology, an enormous ego, eccentric personality and extraordinarily diverse interests. He is a world-renowned stamp collector, an equestrian, painter and hunter, and a saxophonist who pokes fun at "honkers" like President Clinton. He has been lampooned on "Saturday Night Live" by comic Robin Williams, profiled in the documentary "God's Angry Man" and feted by some of California's prominent personalities."

"A pivotal point in Scott's life came when he enrolled in a doctorate program in philosophy of education at Stanford University. One professor was a leading disciple of Reinhold Niebuhr, and Scott's dissertation on the American philosopher left an indelible mark on him. Quoting Niebuhr, Scott described his life's goal: to "descend from the anthill of scholastic hair-splitting to help the world of men regulate its common life and discipline, its ambitions and ideals." Like Niebuhr, Scott believed that this could not be accomplished without religion."

So much for the "atheist professors" of Willow's imagination.

From the article and other information it looks like Scott is your basic garden-variety con man, promoting a variation on the common Large Group Therapy Scam, albeit with a colorful personality and a high degree of intelligence, and of course, veiled gangsterism:

"While the suits do not always succeed in court, apparently they are effective in helping to intimidate Scott's adversaries. Dozens of people refused to speak about Scott for this article because they expressed fear of being sued."

You tried to answer it - and I showed that you answers only lead to more contradictions, not to less. And to this post, you never answered. Here's a link to my answer:

The prophecies about Tyre failed miserably - there's no way around it.

Just curious: Why do people who pray like this obviously receive different "knowledge"? And how do you determine that Gene Scott prayed the right way? How do you determine that you pray the right way? How do you determine that both of you are not corrupted by Satan? Do you still don't see the slippery slope?

How do you know this? How do you determine that you are not deceived by satan in thinking this? etc. etc. etc.

Get it: Arguments invoking deceptions by supernatural beings end all logic and argument.

Yep, nobody else in the world has degrees in two unrelated subjects. What a towering intellect!
...So he's a creationist??? This gets worse!
...Where is the "research" that has us "stymied"?

There's none on this thread.

(C'mon, WILLOWevcTREE, admit it: you ARE Eugene Scott, yes? Or his publicist, maybe?)

Sven

*shiver* Perhaps we should stop critizing him/his arguments.

You're not the only one who got this impression...

Incorrect. The greek word GNWSIS has several meanings none of which limits such knowing to experience. According to L&S:

gnwsis, ews, h, (gnwnai) a seeking to know: a judicial inquiry, Lat. cognitio. II. knowledge: wisdom. 2. aquaintance with a person. 3. a recognising. (L&S p. 144)

Additionally, the so-called Gnostics believe GNWSIS was a spiritual knowledge that could not be gained by experience, but only by revelation.

Pure tabloid style rant.

Every great person has their jealous mob of innuendo inventors who are infuriated with the irrefutable research, therefore, they respond with non-evidenciary personal attacks which diametrically mirror the quality of the research.

Dr. Scott is the smartest person in the world. He has by pure hard work learned every dead language and can by MEMORY write and teach what they say for any verse in the Bible, then interpret and convert into english while explaining the syntax and grammar and casings etc.etc.

Currently, he is teaching through Romans verse by verse, and simultaneously writing on his clear boards, the original greek, syriac, aramaic, latin, arabic, hebrew, coptic, and ethiopic translations for each verse as he comes to them. Then he breaks down each word and their meaning, while giving the details of the syntax, grammar, and casings etc.etc. (without any notes !)

Dr. Scott PROVES every week that ALL these translations in ALL these different languages say the exact same thing just a little differently to drill home the truth of each verse. What we have here is IRREFUTABLE proof of the Bible's consistency to say the same thing. This proves that the general slanderous criticism which asserts the Bible to be inconsistent and thus untrustworthy to be the created lies of modern "scholarship" who do not believe in the existence of miracles and are thus using the reputation of their educational credentials to perpetuate their fraudulent Biblical renderings, also known as common personal anti-christian bias.

If you have picture and sound capabilities in your computer then watch for yourself his live teaching every Sunday at 11 AM California time.

After you watch, then show me the fraud, otherwise the atheist rants of the Los Angeles Times and ex-employees are pathetic cheap shots which are only created because they cannot refute his research.

www.drgenescott.com Picture and sound 24/365.

Hi Amaleq !

Yes I can explain why.

While Dr. Scott has written about 15-20 books, he is not an author.

He is the Pastor of the Los Angeles University Cathedral [Los Angeles, CA]

Dr. Scott's teaching and research is ONLY available on Short Wave Radio, Satellite Television, KU-Band Direct Television, and the Internet 24/365.

Dr. Scott is a teacher - not an author, and his research can only be accessed via the above mentioned mediums.

Dr. Scott, by his own admission has no time or desire to write books or publish his research. He built a worldwide ministry via oral teaching and he intends for that to never change.

Dr. Scott's voice is the ONLY voice which is heard on every square inch of the world 24 hours a day/365. This is only possible via short-wave radio and satellite technology. Not even the BBC or the Vatican or CNN can make this boast. Dr. Scott is on Radio Moscow 24 hours a day/365 ! Did you hear what I said ! The very transmitters that were created to jam all western broadcasts now deliver the truth of God's word via Dr. Scott.

Because Dr. Scott is only oral teaching - he is the most plagarized man on the planet. Even God-damn fundementalists steal his teaching then criticize him for smoking a cigar.

Its a big world, and the fact that someone does not know about Dr. Scott only evidences their ignorance or narrow scope of academia.

"Peer Review" is a structure for invoking ones subjective beliefs to be objective truth, thus if someone is out of favor with the crowd they are subject to peer review blackmail.

Dr. Scott's research can be accessed by anyone anytime for review.

His entire network is paid for by people who give their tithes and offerings based on what they think the teaching is worth - no other reason. If any other reason is given the check is returned.

This means he can be held hostage to no one.
