Nonetheless, one can bet that the morons will be jerking off to this absurd movie. Let's call it "Jesus Porn."(April 16, 2017 at 10:34 pm)ronedee Wrote: Well.... your boy argues the Romans didn't put victims in tombs right away, and "probably" left Jesus hanging for a day or so. Jews bury their dead before sundown. And with the Sabbath looming, it would be more important to bury Him pronto. Romans respected Jewish religious rights to keep them civil and obedient. So, there's a blaring mistake for Landau's argument. Which he should've been well aware of! Plus, he doesn't state where he gets his info about delayed burials.
Quote:Crucifixion was often performed in order to terrorize and dissuade its witnesses from perpetrating particularly heinous crimes. Victims were left on display after death as warnings to others who might attempt dissent. Crucifixion was usually intended to provide a death that was particularly slow, painful (hence the term excruciating, literally "out of crucifying"), gruesome, humiliating, and public, using whatever means were most expedient for that goal. Crucifixion methods varied considerably with location and time period.

The point of killing people that way was to show the populace what happened to criminals.

The devils....eh, truth is in the details. IF a subject is to be torn down, it needs to be done from within the argument. 5000 manuscripts were written because a LOT of people believed the scripture was truth.
The biggest argument for Jesus, IMO, is the Eucharist. Jesus lost half, or more of His following with the words: “Unless you eat my body and drink my blood, there is no life in you.” That is the single most important "Case for Christ" in my book!
That was counter-cultural, and "unclean" to everything about the Jewish traditions of the day! There is no way a "made-up" Messiah would be saying that stuff. NONE! That wouldn't get you far then.... and obviously still not very popular these days either. Only to those "with understanding".
I don't get your reasoning. To me it just looks like something someone is supposed to have said.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
