That's cool, I get busy with other things also. I'll be waiting patiently.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Stop it, Drippy. You already have tied G-C for being the stupidest bible-thumping asshole on the board. You going for the record or something.
Your god fucked up. Deal with it. It is far from the only example. What other examples? Oh that's right you listed 1/2 a dozen of the best ones you had, they got shot down and you returned to tyre and tried to make this one work.

Tyre was never lost. Attacked by the Babylonians the city held out as the Babylonians lacked a fleet to capture it. Later subdued by the Persians the Tyrian navy supplied a significant contingent to the Persian fleet which attacked Greece. Remaining a loyal Persian ally they were conquered by Alexander the Great ( somehow drippy's fucking "bible" missed that" but Alex knew a good port when he saw one and did not destroy the city, either. Tyre was still around in the Roman period, in the Byzantine period, in the Islamic period, during the Crusades...etc., etc. to today where it is the 4th largest city in Lebanon.
But drippy just needs to invent shit to get his god off the hook. Apparently god needs a better lawyer than drippy to get him off this time.
And we haven't even talked about Egypt or Damascus, yet.

I think you have confused yourself. Read the prophesy again:
19 “For thus says the Lord God: ‘When I make you a desolate city, like cities that are not inhabited, when I bring the deep upon you, and great waters cover you, 20 then I will bring you down with those who descend into the Pit, to the people of old, and I will make you dwell in the lowest part of the earth, in places desolate from antiquity, with those who go down to the Pit, so that you may never be inhabited; and I shall establish glory in the land of the living. 21 I will make you a terror, and you shall be no more; though you are sought for, you will never be found again,’ says the Lord God.”
What has been cast down into the 'pit' Is it inhabited? a simple Yes or No will do.

appearently you have confused yourself as well and do not remember even how this prophesy begins:
3 “Therefore thus says the Lord God: ‘Behold, I am against you, O Tyre, and will cause many nations to come up against you, as the sea causes its waves to come up.
Babylon, The Persians, Greece they all fall under "a great many nations do they not?"
Or are you saying that the first attack by babylon was enough to be considered "A Great many nations" Ezekel spoke of all by itself?

Rather vague, though, nothing particularly special in there.

But the city is still there. Conquered, yes, but never abandoned and certainly it did not sink beneath the waves. As a matter of fact, in a further buttfucking of your god, the area of the city is greater now than it was in antiquity....thanks to Alexander's engineering work. And your silly ass god had such high hopes for Nebuchadnezzar, too. What a fuck up your god is.

Yes it was completely destroyed in 551 AD and not by any army, but just as God said, a tsunami sweep this city away, with most of it's people. That city was and still is at the sea's floor. Yes a new city is built, however that particular city is gone.

Not at all. Iron chariots are just like Kryptonite to the Lord. It's the one weakness our Superman has.
And wasn't his son immobilized by iron spikes?
