Is it NOT true that it was Published in antiquity, in the Public Domain, all over the Roman Empire that Jesus Christ was FATHERED by a Holy Ghost, the Son of God, God the Creator, that was on the Pinnacle of the Temple with Satan, Walked, Transfigured, Resurrected, Ate Food after and then ascended?? Yes or NO?? Is NOT the published documented description of Jesus Christ of Nazareth a Mythological character?? Yes or NO??? It is blatantly obvious that Acharya S is absolutely correct and truthful. Jesus in the NT is Mythological like the Greek/Roman Mythological characters. It is Ehrman who writes Loads of BS about his Jesus using sources of Mythology as a history books. In an earlier post you claimed you "document BS" so immediately begin to document Ehrman's "Did Jesus Exist?". Carrier, his Peer, correctly identified that "Did Jesus Exist"? is a failure of Facts and logic--the book is worse than bad. |

EDIT: Some typos, half-finished thoughts, etc fixed in the blog now.
I have been a bit slow in publishing posts on the blog, and figured I may as well inform you of a slight detour that will appear in parallel. Over 10% of the references in The Christ Conspiracy are to Godfrey Higgins' Anacalypsis (published in the 1830s), a work written by an ignorant man, in whose works also are evident not just a little of the prejudices of his time. In his The Celtic Druids, he notes that negative quantities in maths are prejudicial to science, and that engineering schools recently have abolished them in their teaching of algebra. (I wonder what he'd think of modern mathematicians considering square roots of negative numbers an everyday thing!) His views of language are so full of stupid misunderstanding of how language works that it hurts to read him. And Acharya S, who likes styling herself a "linguist" thinks this man is a credible source? http://somerationalism.blogspot.fi/2...gins-pt-1.html I also express some thoughts on what pseudoscience is, and set out a "roadmap" to showing if something does qualify as pseudoscience, so that later on, I can be justified in claiming that the amount of blunders, pseudoscientific reasoning, unfalsifiable claims, quotemining and use of untrustworthy sources is enough to reject at least The Christ Conspiracy and Suns of God. http://somerationalism.blogspot.fi/2...ations-on.html |

I will point out that I write things in a rather disconnected manner, jumping back and forth in the text. Oftentimes, there's half-finished sentences littering the ground, thoughts I haven't entirely penned all the way through, lines of thought that slightly have diverged from when they started, etc. Fixing this is about half the fun, though, so any remnants of that - do point them out, please, and I'll fix them.
This happens in every language I write in, though, just as much in my native language as in others. Heck, even when I speak I sometimes have that problem. |

Needlessly publicly impugning the woman's past or implying that her opinions are serving as a cover for her sexual immorality is stepping over the line. I believe that such comments about a person who is not even present to defend themselves are 'overly personal' and also immoral. You may see that my previous reply was edited. I simply suggested the appropriate place for your referenced genitals to be deposited. |

If you feel that a post is in violation of the rules or not part of a reasoned discussion, please report the post rather than escalating a war of insults.
And realize that what appears to be an insult might be a misunderstanding. |

Is it really all that difficult to understand the sense of this statement?

What part of using the report post function is unclear?
