You really don't understand do you?

There's a HUGE difference between the reporting of an on-going disaster, which by its very nature is chaotic and prone to uncertanity and a report of an alleged important event that occured in the past. If, in a decade, the reports of how many nuke plants were damaged in the earthquake and resulting tsunami are still confused, then you'd have a case. AS it stands, you don't.

Now, how about we stay on topic - you remember that, the thing that you promised to "bring in" evidence for? There are a number of questions on the table for you to actually, oh I don't know...ANSWER.

  • What were Jesus' last words? (<--That's called a "question mark". Please use it to denote the asking of a question)
  • How did Simon the Zealot die?
  • One man, two men, one angel, two angels?
  • Why should we care about any of this? (Ok, that's a new one, but I'd like to know)

Two angels, one cup?
 
I'll get to the issue of the alleged discrepancy of Jesus last words within 10 days but as of now I see no contradiction unless you make assumptions.

C'mon DOC, Jesus managed a resurrection in less time than that.
 
Ten days, huh? Asking his pastor this coming Sunday and getting an answer the following Sunday, maybe.
 
I don't think DOC actually attends any church. He's probably e-mailing Kenneth Copeland Ministries.
 
I just listened to another hour of Irreligiosophy discussing Kent Hovind's "dissertation" and it reminded me of this thread.
 
Another empty post (that does not respond to a particular post of mine) that any troll could post.

You have only made my atheism stronger. Better men than I have explained your mistakes to you,there is no point in me trying to answer you. I'm still waiting to see some evidence from you.
 
I hope you guys aren't slowing down, its just getting interesting. My first post. I did want to make it worthwhile.

Welcome to the forum (and to the thread that never ends)!

Hope you like it here. Any subject that interest you in particular?
 
One thing is for sure. The gospels were written by anonymous authors. So, it's 150% that they certainly were not writing the truth.
