I always wondered how Jesus talks out of his mouth when he can't inhale and exhale due to hole on his side ruining any effort by his diaphragm to create positive or negative pressure in his chest cavity.

1) What sort of immortal being needs the credibility conferred by reference to a short human past?

2) You yourself still practice this appeal to the past on a regular basis ... meaning that your use of the verb "was" is a touch disingenuous.

You're taking the spear wound out of context.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
