No, that won't do. I've also got to say I like the cut of your jib. That was a powerful first post, and certainly placed in the correct sub-forum.
I am now going to go "rep" you as a token of my esteem. I couldn't follow your rebuttal post where you went all chapter and verse on Godschild and Orangebox. (Scripture makes me sleepy and sometimes a little nauseated.) Some of the Christians we get here are always begging us to cite scripture. Some of the atheists here are able to do so better than most Christians, Mr Agenda for one. You obviously have the 'knowledge' too.
If it makes you feel any better I didn't make an introduction thread for the better part of a year when I first showed up. Suit yourself, I always do. Etiquette is always optional.
NV's not nearly as smart as you believe, NV like most atheist copies from the net.

Firstly, if you're going to insult my intelligence, make sure that you use proper grammar. I'm already lumping you in with the "Your" an idiot crowd which, frankly, means that you are likely of insufficient mental capacity to achieve the enlightenment that I and the other ex-Christians here have achieved.
As for the topic at hand, I assume you're referring to the Zedekiah contradiction. If I have taken this from the Internet, and if the Bible, as you claim, does not contradict itself, then surely the Christian rebuttal is available. After all, you folks have had 3000 years to make sense of the Old Testament.
So why not just use your one good hand to copy and paste me the link?
You see, the problem is that this is a very obscure issue. While I was not the first human to discover it, I nevertheless did do so on my own while I was in the process of reading all 66 books of the Protestant Bible - something I seriously doubt you ever even considered. The lukewarm nature of your faith is likely the reason you believe I stole this from some other source.
The only rebuttals in existence for this issue merely offer clarification of which specific passages are in error so that the rest can be said to be in harmony.
So far you are more of a punching bag than a sparring partner. If you don't improve your skills then I might end up dulling my own in the process of grappling with you.
Jesus is like Pinocchio. He's the bastard son of a carpenter. And a liar. And he wishes he was real.
