29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days,

31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
Just cut and pasted bullshit by "mark". What could they have done with a word processor?
Well for one thing they'd have had a better thesaurus.

Um...that the evidence of this is what objective historians have concluded? And just what the fuck evidence do you have that it's in any way divine, or even coherent or ethical on a human level?
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

Quick! Go back and edit your posts to retroactively make it look like they were just as unhinged as you expected! He'll totally buy that!

What evidence? What do you consider to be an objective historian? What is the basis of their reasoning? Are you shifting the burden of proof already?

Actually wasn't even going to post, until you called me out and started speaking for me. But you probably won't believe me, no matter what I say. You'll just make up a story, declare it true and disrupt actual discussion.

Just an aversion to people trying to manipulate the conversation, to things I didn't claim in the context and avoid the questions I asked about their claims.

How did you come to that conclusion? How did you, is what you ought to be asking. I was under the impression that you believed in this nonsense.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
