I believe that his assumption he asked for was that testimony was evidence.

Correct.  And, the claims in the Bible are alleged testimony, are they not?  Keep up, will ya?

Quote:And given the nature of the topic, about special pleading, I don't think that assuming his views on testimony is unreasonable in this circumstance.

Congratulations!  You think something.  Maybe some day you'll support it with evidence and reason, seeing as you haven't accomplished that yet after four threads on witness testimony.  

Still waiting on your answer to my question, by the way.  I wonder why you're avoiding it.  Maybe it has something to do with that fact that you know your own damn bible claims don't even come close to meeting the idiotically convoluted standards you've laid out in the past (four threads worth) in order to skate witness testimony in as "evidence."  You shoot your in the foot with this crap, RR.  Don't you realize that?

Quote:Also, I am still curious where this special pleading is supposed to have occurred?

I'm curious why you don't read.  I explained it to you as plainly as possible, but instead of responding, you just repeated the question, lol.
Nay_Sayer: “Nothing is impossible if you dream big enough, or in this case, nothing is impossible if you use a barrel of KY Jelly and a miniature horse.”

Wiser words were never spoken.
