Tacitus
RE: Tacitus
The fact remains if there was this alleged infinite regress of cause and effects atheists cling to, you would have had an eternity to come into being before now, so you should have already happened, so nature needs a cause outside of itself, outside of time and space, being uncreated by the uncreated Creator.

Seriously, this guy doesn't give a shit about discussion.

Now you can't even be arsed to check which thread you're on. There goes all hope for any semblance of a rational discussion.

How long has it been since the Ban Hammer tasted Fresh Blood?

Not long, my friend. Not long.

He's already posted that twice in this thread and once in another. I prophesize he's not long for the board.

There is no reason to believe that. I only have evidence for the NT written by the eyewitnesses and those closest to them.

What better evidence could you ask for?

Your fucking gospels do not even make such claims themselves, dummy.

Why would you think the NT was written a decade or two later?

And yes, we have no sources as close to their events as we do for the NT events.

I don't give a shit when it was written. The people that do came up with that answer.

Prove your claims for once. Seriously, your mindless repetition of the same shit over and over got boring a while back.

It's too bad we can't have a conversation with atheists because they shut their minds down.
