I would have too, but reading what is written in the nomination thread, it seems this does not qualify :(.

Well thank you for the thoughts anyway; sometimes the words are just there y'know, all ready to come out fully formed, if not always directed towards a noble cause... but as I tried to get across, this is the Internet, where people distending their anus or vomiting into cups and then using it sexually can get tens of millions of views; so it's just staggering that DOC doesn't even realise the nature of this modern beast, and just why the majority of lurkers are likely to be watching his thread with fascination.... It's like he has the whole modern world on Ignore too.

I was however most disappointed I wasn't nominated for the other meme, "Penis Blather Yrreg Time!" in the other thread. Boo to all you, boo I say and no more dancing bananas for any of you!

...According to these data, there’s no real EVIDENCE that any of the apostles were martyred - it could easily be fiction written for religious political purposes...

You need to do more research than just Wiki. Your statement is false and I will go more in depth within 10 days.
 
Thinking on this further, I have a couple of questions for DOC.

Have you read any of the non-canonical writings from the early Christian period? Have you read any of the Gnostic Gospels?

Why do you think these were left out of the New Testament when many of these supported the things you are claiming better than some of the books that were left in (such as Revelation)? If inconsistency is OK and oral tradition is so important, why did early church leaders go through so much effort to stamp much of it out?

DOC, 10 days?
You have had 2+ years to make a fact based argument, and you have yet to do so. Why do you think an additional 10 days will help?

I misinterpreted some previous statement in the language award that this should not be used to shame a poster or further an agenda. I retract my interpretation.

To be fair, I do try to leave out personal attacks when putting together the list of finalists, however, if the post displays an excellent use of language and can be edited to remove references to anyone specific, it does stand a good chance of making it. It is when it is impossible to edit the post to remove the name of the poster, as opposed to references to their arguments or actions, I automatically remove it from consideration.
