Come on now downbeat, everyone knows that the only parts of the bible that are meant to be taken literally are the parts you can admonish others for.

Go ahead and read the entire prophecy. Tyre was supposed to be utterly destroyed, never to be rebuilt again. It never happened. Nebuchadnezzar had to give up after a siege lasting eight years. Tyre has been an inhabited city up to the present day. You're wrong again, numb nuts. How much more thoroughly do you have to have your face rubbed in it before you realize that all you're doing here is making a total ass of yourself? Get an education!

The Tyre prophecy is not what makes a difference here.

And yet, right above you stated, "There are good commentaries explaining this prophecy (Tyre prophecy).  Matthew Henry,....  Many see this as an amazing prophecy." It DOES make a difference because, not only have you and your precious Bible been proven wrong, you have also been exposed as a biblical illiterate. Get an education, numb nuts!

Once again, you have made a total ass of yourself and this time been proven to be a liar as well. I can think of at least three other forums in which you would have been speedily banned a long time ago.

I'm not sure a ban is the right thing to do. 

IMHO it is useful to have a record that other theists can read to see just how dumb the claims are.

Every time CDF makes an ass of himself it is an illustrative example of what religion does to one's brain.

After all, here we have a christian who depends for his knowledge of the bible upon what others tell him it says, and worse still, relies on others to tell him what it "really" means.

When the bible outright supports things like slavery or genocide or whatever, CDF goes running to "authorities" to explain what it "really" meant.

He could, of course, read the vile tome himself and do a little thinking for himself and decide what it actually means. But that would pop his bubble of arrogant superiority and comfort.

According to CDF, his god gave him a brain. By not using it he is directly insulting that very same god.

For example, out of the 613 mitzvot, he thinks that jebus endorsed the ten commandment only and thus those are only the laws which apply under the "new covenant". He believes this because he has been instructed to believe this, not because he actually ever read the bible cover to cover.

Had he actually read the risible tome he would know that jebus only ever endorsed FIVE of the ten commandments and ignored the rest. Had he read the bible he would know which those were. Had he read the bible, he would know that jebus added two more that were not part of the ten but rather plagiarised from surrounding, pre-existing cultures.

Now, because I have read the entire bible, I know which 5 jebus included and which 5 jebus excluded.

Because CDF has not read the bible, but instead relied on others to TELL him what the bible says, he has no clue which.

Thus we know that CDF has not read the bible.

I've read the Bible cover to cover and studied it extensively.

The Book is divinely inspired.  The prophecies came true.  Jesus is real.

Name one that came true.

Well, to be honest he is. From his reply to you stating that he believes the bible to be inerrant, you can know he is. Fundamentalist strains of christianity hold to inerrancy while more mainstream versions abandoned it about 150 years ago.

And just like that out of sheer convenience it becomes not amazing and not a prophecy. Is it not odd how malleable CDF's absolutes are?

I doubt you have.

Do you sacrifice birds to let your wife back in the house after she has finished being unpure each month?
Do you eat pig coz you shouldn't?
how do you feel about tattoos?
Or wearing mixed fabrics?

If you don't act as the bible says on this then is the bible really the book for you?

Those are OT laws.  We no longer have to abide by those since Jesus died on the cross for our sins.  Salvation is not by works but by the free gift of grace through faith in Jesus Christ.

It is an amazing prophecy.  However, it is not what is making someone an atheist or not.  It makes no difference.  That is what I meant.

The ten commandments are OT laws. You reject those as well, right?

That's not how cherry picking works, ire.

It makes me so sad you're going to end up in the great boiling pot having to needlessly suffer for 50 millennia.
