Good luck with your juvenile attitude towards people who hold religious beliefs.
I am a rather deeply religious person myself. It is superstitious twits who let their religious prejudices over-ride their native intelligence that I attack.
Superstition is a religious belief that conflicts with natural law.
There is, for example, no evidence that there was ever a Semitic culture on the Yucatan Penninsula, or that any of the indigienous peoples were of Semitic descent.
Idiot boy Jones saw an icon of Itzamna with what appeared, to the ignorant, to be stigmata in the palms of his hands.
Old doofus assumed that this was how Jesus was crufied, and assumed that there was no other likely explanation for why a god of healing would be so portrayed. He totally ignored the fact tyhat Mayan religion was to some extent shamanistic, and that laying-on of hands is central to most shaministic healing rituals. DERRRR!
He also over-looks the fact that in crucifiction, the nails are not placed through the hands. The wounded palms are a far later European convention.
So stone-age people thousands of miles away would come to the same conclusion as a bunch of European monks as to how to crucify people. Wierd.
Jones also over-looks the fact that the only similarity between Jesus and Itzamna is death and resurrection.
DUH! That was a feature of the cult of Damuzi, and you know what the Bible has to say about the cult of Damuzi, right?
If you don't, you are going to make yourself look very foolish when defending a moron in a debate about religious beliefs versus mindless superstition.
What makesd the Itzamna theory most important here, in assessing Jones' abilities as a scientist is that it proves that he has, on at least one egregious occassion, allowed his superstition to lead him to a conclusion not based on reality because he WANTED to show that his religious mythology was true.
