Could we make it a class action suit on the basis of the pain and suffering we've all experienced?

Meh; we keep coming back on our own accord. So, whatever suffering we are going through is mostly self-inflicted...

Oh, fine, squelch my frivolous lawsuit at the moment of its conception. I was just trying to make a little money for the good people of this thread, but noooo. DOC still has a case, though.
I am still a little surprised that DOC missed the point about the maid and the beating of servants/slaves without due process.
The point about things getting out of hand if left to individual sadism with no checks in place.

You obviously don't know him very well.
Perhaps I am a hopeless optimist.
This were something not strictly god related, but rather into unbalanced employer/employee relationships.
Doc is able to operate a computer and should have cognitive abilities, even if not demonstrated on god related subject.

Well - I've learnt something from this thread:
Evidence is what ancient writers thought/assumed/guessed, as long as they agree with my prejudices, regardless of how much they could actually prove.
It'll take some getting used to...

The 'we' in the thread title does not refer to everyone, just a select extremely gullible few, who have low standards for what constitutes evidence. There doesn't have to be an argument about the evidence not being sufficient, the op just wanted everyone to know how little it took to convince them. Everyone has different standards of proof required for belief.

In reading posts from DOC in this thread, I was reminded of something I read many years ago. (Don't ask. 
)
It was in MAD magazine, and was the story of Davy Crockett. The title was, 'True stories from the legendary past'.

I have, and as amb points out, we have nothing at all of Jesus besides the N/T, and despite your promise, we have no evidence whatsoever that the NT writers told the truth.
If anything, you've highlighted the fictional nature of those 'accounts' and made it abundantly clear that lies and ignorance are the only means available to perpetuate the nonsense.
Well done.

I'm not sure whether I find it comical or frightening to think that DOC actually believes that he has in any way supported his claims.
I suppose since he's a long way away from me I can feel safe in going with 'comical' but still, that's a serious level of delusion.

The only response to that kind of nonsense is derision. he thinks beating servants is acceptable. his opinion is worthless.

Looks like DOC is doing what everyone else predicted. "The length of this thread is proof I have so much evidence to support my claims."
Never mind that the entire thread is full of nothing but requests that he present this evidence, of course.
How's that "Bearing False Witness" thing workin' out for you, DOC? After all, Jesus says it's OK to lie as long as you do it for Jesus.

You wouldn't expect a master logician like DOC to let annoying things like facts to interfere with his arguments, would you?
