MERGED: The Case for the Resurrection of Jesus Christ (Part 1) & (Part 2)

It will be much more pointless.

That's what makes it funny, though.

Um, no it doesn't, and I am not even sure that he was talking about the vision he experienced on the road to Damascus...it could have been two separate accounts, one vision, and one physical.

Even the vision on the road to Damascus is problematic. In Acts 9:7, it says that Saul's companions heard a voice but saw nothing. In Acts 22:9, it says they saw the light but heard nothing. This is in the same book, only a few chapters apart, and yet it makes two completely different claims.

Plus, it's interesting to note that in II Corinthians 11:14, Paul, himself says that Satan frequently disguises himself as an angel of light. What was it that Acts 9 said converted Saul? Yup... an angel of light!

Jeez, you guys are such hippocrates!! Your so quick to throw Josephus under the bus when he mentions Jesus, but the minuet he supports your bullshit story you want to come crawling back to him when it suites you!!

Laughing after saying stuff is not enough to establish truth. Or else Beavis and Butthead would be running science.

Maybe it's simulating the laughter of the reader? Like canned laughter?

I always take it to mean that the lithium just kicked in.

But It has always been the one and only Christian way to storm pompously onto the stage while asserting to be humble, throw feces in every direction along which they think the shit would splat, then chant victory and sidle off the stage.

The laugh emoticon is but the Internet version of christians idiotically chanting victory after having covered themselves with shit.

Now THAT is funny

It seems to be a contest of sheer volume of shit being sprayed, so we can't clean it up fast enough. And the stamina to always be able to find a bit more shit in the can so you can have the last word and "win" because everyone else got sick of you and went home.

This is apologetics in general.

[Thumpalumpacus]

You can have the last word, for now. Right now, I have bigger fish to fry.

... said the catfish to the diner ...

Which brings us back to the fact that Josephus never said shit about 'jesus.' Later xtian forgers did.

Funny how God lets us all sit here and call him a tool. He used to blow people up for less.

Ooh, I'll regret it after I die? Wow God, please don't fuck my corpse after I'm dead. Well actually, fill your boots, what do I care.
