Some minds won't be changed no matter how much evidence you show them. I stopped engaging in this thread pages ago because it's just not worth arguing over. I can respect his right to believe as long as he can respect my rights to know it's all bullshit.
Not necessarily true though.
I'm open to all possibilities. I'm what you would call poorly educated, having left school having done no exams. What you'd possibly call ripe to be indoctrinated/brain washed whatever you want to call it. But I am willing to listen and learn I just need proof (i'm already wavering tbh).
As for any insults or rudeness aimed at me on this thread bring it on as it say's more about those that insult than it does me. Show me the evidence, I've already said I'd look unbiasedly and have done so, and not liked what I've seen so far, but again I've broad shoulders and am willing to listen and learn. If people have no interest in helping absolutely fine, I think we can all live with that.

Xtians love to insist that their silly-assed OT was "originally" written in Hebrew even though we have not a scintilla of evidence for that position. The earliest version was written in Greek. End of story.
But that too makes yhwh look like a schmuck.
Xtians and yhwh?

It came across as if you watched the programme while not giving it 100% and missed a few vital bits you'd think KJV really was the original Bible and the word of God.
Had a word with my Pastor and tbh I'm not impressed with his reaction (which was basically don't ask questions and don't watch rubbish)
It's almost as if he doesn't want you thinking for yourself. Dangerous shit, that is!
I agree.
