and was a womanizer who was considered amoral by his rabbi.
So, unless DOC thinks jesus was an amoral womanizer (which would fit with his pro-slave beating stance), I can't imagine why DOC would want to use the Talmud as a source.

So according to the Talmud someone named Yeshu (Hebrew for Jesus) was hanged on Passover eve and for practicing sorcery {magic} and leading Israel astray. Are you saying that only the name fits what we know about Jesus?

Where does it show proof for that?

The Jesus Narrative In The Talmud
By Gil Student

says this:

"Some historians note some similarities here between Yeshu and Jesus. Most notably, in one manuscript of the Talmud he is called Yeshu the Notzri which could be rendered (with only a little difficulty) Jesus the Nazarene."

Why don't you show us exactly where the author makes that conclusion that Yeshu was not Jesus. And how he determined that the Yeshu in the Talmud who was executed on Passover eve lived 100 years before Jesus.

You suggested that the author of the article claimed the Talmud evidenced Jesus. As has been pointed out the author repeated the claim but he concluded that Yeshu predated Jesus by 100 years and there were no other similarities.

You were arguing the article was evidence that the Talmud identified Jesus.
The author of the article does not provide any evidence to support your claim.

The universe - Goddidit.

Electricity - Goddoesit
Relativity- God is Jesus’s father and he is Jesus as well....perhaps relativity isn't that easy to understand.
Boyles law - God made the law first.

Awesome, Lothian. You have a real way with words.

Give 3 post numbers where that is the case and why you feel I used poor logic.

Ak. kindly provided this information.

However, I do not wish to play your games. Your "3 posts" request is arbitrary and likely dishonest. I could provide you with dozens. indeed, the OP is nothing but a series of logical fallacies. False premises mixed with circular reasoning.

Hokulele asked an honest question of you pages back, but you refused to answer it. While, simultaneously, having the gall to demand an apology from her. If you wish to play these games, you are welcome to. We will continue to call you out on your nonsense. It only hurts your position.

If, however, you wish to actually get back to the OP and actually discuss the evidence honestly, I would greatly appreciate it.

And other authors conclude, that Yeshu was the famous Jesus. So what evidence does he have that the Yeshu of the Talmud lived 100 years before the famous Jesus.
 
DOC said:
No, I didn't

Oh yes you did.

Cleon said the talmud Jesus connection was debunked. You said.
the site you gave doesn't make that conclusion.

In fact the site you gave entitled:

The Jesus Narrative In The Talmud

says this:

"Some historians note some similarities here between Yeshu and Jesus. Most notably, in one manuscript of the Talmud he is called Yeshu the Notzri which could be rendered (with only a little difficulty) Jesus the Nazarene."

As demonstrated the author of your quote said that Yeshu predated Jesus by 100 years and nothing in the story fits anything we know about Jesus.

So the site Cleon gave does debunk the connection.

If you think the site is wrong and you think that Jesus is the sexual promiscuious womaniser in the Talmud you are free to bring evidence.

You say I'm illogical but when I ask you to give me three posts where that is the case and explain why, you won't do it?? And Post # 1 was Geisler's argument, not mine.
