Come again. In english.

There were lots of prophecies in the OT that were fulfilled in Jesus.

Arguing from prophecy was not only Jesus' own approach but very popular for the first 1500 years or so of Christianity.

Yes! Now I know of someone who believes in the incorruptibles; my favorite piece of bullshit!

I thought I read somewhere that the Church doesn't believe that shit anymore, since it requires dipping the body in wax and keeping it in a air tight glass case...
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Sorry, 'evidence from prophecy' is one of Randy's sales scripts.
The gods did not reveal, from the beginning,
All things to us, but in the course of time
Through seeking we may learn and know things better.

These things are, we conjecture, like the truth.

But as for certain truth, no man has known it,
Nor shall he know it, neither of the gods
Nor yet of all the things of which I speak.
And even if by chance he were to utter
The final truth, he would himself not know it:
For all is but a woven web of guesses.

Xenophanes

That would be the point.  You've emptied out all the dressers, drawers, and closets onto the floor and are now flailing around in the laundry.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Copy/paste of the 100 alleged prophecies the NT writers claim Jesus fulfilled in 3 . . . 2 . . . 1 . . .

Randy's a hopeless case, and I am just bored with him at this point.
