Thanks Don, I appreciate your comment, though, I perhaps misinterpret it, for in my mind, if no one else's, aa5874's posts to the forum are so filled up with useful, constructive, informative quotations from various ancient texts, I simply marvel at his skill and ability to offer something beneficial to every single thread on this forum, in harmony with the encyclopedic breadth of his knowledge.

If I were permitted to choose ONLY ONE person from this forum, to consult, before answering a question about the history of the early christian church, an answer upon which my life depended, I would beseech help from aa5874.

Many Christians believe that Hell isn't something we are sent to for punishment, but something that we freely choose. As CS Lewis wrote, Hell is locked from the inside.

If aa gives you what you need, then good luck to you.

I will not tolerate these BLATANT erroneous statements from you.

Are you not violating the rules?

I don't know. Your increasingly inane and often irrelevant posts help contribute to the perception that mythicists in general appear like nutjobs. If you spent less time responding and more time trying to construct logical arguments, then we would all be better off. Are these erroneous statements? I doubt it. Am I violating rules? Possibly. I just am thankful that you are on the side of the mythicists.

Again, you do not even realize that you destroy your credibility when you post these BLATANT mis-representations of my posts.

You are EXPOSING your INABILITY to deal with the OP and have become completely OBSESSED with making personal attacks.

But it is TOO LATE.

Stop wasting your time and deal with the OP.

Your GAME is finished.

Stop preaching and deal with the OP.

Your resurrected Ghost Jesus can't send anybody anywhere. He was a GHOST story of Antiquity.

Just tell us when you believe the GHOST story about Jesus started.

I have deduced, believe, think, based on the EXTANT sources, that the JESUS GHOST stories were INITIATED some time AFTER the Fall of the Temple and sometime AFTER or just around the time of the book "Life of Flavius Josephus".

The auto-biography of Josephus contains the crucifixion of THREE where ONE survived which appears similar to the crucifixion of Jesus, the Ghost of God, and the TWO robbers.

See "Life of Flavius Josephus" 75.

The writings of Justin Martyr, c 150 CE, also tend to show that belief in the Jesus Ghost stories were recent since Justin Martyr appeared to be explaining the origin of the Ghost stories to "Trypho" the Jew and the Emperor of Rome including the Senate.

It is MOST interesting to note that Justin Martyr in his search for "THE TRUTH" did NOT write about any KNOWN public church of the Jesus cult or any Pauline Gospel. It was a MYSTERIOUS old man whom Justin met by ACCIDENT that helped Justin to find the "TRUTH".

See "Dialogue with Trypho" VII.
