Forgeries in the NT

[Astonished]

...

FT...You didn't even make it two threads without revealing you're totally full of shit. See what I was talking about? You cannot possibly be honest and hold the position you do. When confronted with, admittedly the most embarrassing sort of proof that your claim about the bible is completely wrong, you erect a straw man rather than acknowledge the validity of the opposition's argument. That doesn't jive with the claim that you're trying to evaluate whether you have good reasons for believing what you do. I'm sorry, but you've fallen into the trap and you've convinced yourself you're above the pale, and you're really, really not. Want to dispute this? I don't think you can. It's utterly hypocritical to criticize other theists for not admitting being wrong or not having an answer and not doing so yourself when it's shoved in your face.

Have you read the book of Psalms? Wisdom? Etc?  Do you expect a book of wisdom to have all sentences written in it to be wise?

Does the incredible amount (and tremendous degree of) idiocy not cancel out what little wisdom can be found? If I'm going to take something seriously, I don't want it to have a shitty ratio of good ideas to bad ones. If the wisdom in there is so simple a child could come across it without having to be directly taught, is that really wisdom? If the wisdom is plagiarized from somewhere else, can the plagiarist legitimately claim credit for it? If the wisdom is founded on shitty justifications, is it really wisdom (sort of the equivalent of guessing right on a multiple-choice question purely by accident)? If the rate of finding wisdom is like finding a handful of different-colored grains of sand in a desert, is that even a good method for looking for wisdom? You don't have a damn leg to stand on. Fuck YES I expect a book OF wisdom to be wise in virtually everything it says. A book that contains 'single-digit % wisdom, but mostly filler' does not deserve to be called a book of wisdom. You're once again allowing your confirmation bias to color your view on the thing. If you sincerely don't want to fall into the trappings of other theists' gullibility, then STOP.

Please, PLEASE start actually thinking. I want to have at least one decent conversationalist on the theist side while I'm on this site.
