Yeah, that one. The liars sitting around camel dung campfires in the desert weren't very imaginative. Reminds me of a bunch of shit-faced sailors telling stupid lies for their own self-aggrandizement.

This thread would indicate otherwise, as I am the primary contributor of 15 pages +/- of dialog in about a weeks time. where I have offered many new counter points I myself have come up with, to some very old discussions that seemly from my POV most of you were not prepared to address...
or does proof only matter when you get to define it? either way, whatever floats you boat. As I am not chasing after you to discuss God. especially when you open with a general dismissal of Everything said, observed, witnessed or/and documented for thousands of years. As all this indicates is you are wanting to have a gate keeping discussion where you have already made it known, no amount or type of information I can provide will be considered.
You may call this lazy, the Bible/Jesus calls it 'Not throwing your pearls of wisdom before swine.' The idea not to to call you a pig per say but rather a command to us not put things of great value infront of those whom you know will not appreciate or find value in your 'pearls of wisdom.'
Restating the same apologetics over and over isn't a new thing here.
There are no awards for talking the most.
