Armageddon: The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy

[michaelsherlock]

27For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

28Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

Matty 16

Imagine how surprised the last of the fuckers were when they died without seeing any of the holy horseshit come true?

Know your scripture before spouting your nonsense, the two verses are not related on a time line. Verse 27 is about judgement, verse 28 is about Jesus resurrection, this was the start of the kingdom ie. church. By the way I see you and your buddy Bart do not see eye to eye on Jesus anymore.

I know that you can invent any number of absurd excuses for your bullshit to make it say something other than what it says, G-C. I consider you such a fool that whatever you say on the subject is instantly disregarded as pious blather. The two verses are adjacent for a reason....and the heading of the whole passage is "jesus said to his disciples." Sorry, old boy. It's just horseshit that later xtian writers had to overcome and Ehrman....who always conned himself into thinking there was a "historical" jesus...although he never really explained what he meant by that...has detailed how the failure of your godboy's little prophecy to come true was finessed by later xtian fucktards.

Ehrman is far more convincing when he sticks to his area of expertise.

Also, Ehrman, In his recent interview with NPR (April 1, 2012), commented on the mythicist position, saying:

"Mythicists' arguments are fairly plausible... According to them, Jesus was never mentioned in any Roman sources and there is no archeological evidence that Jesus ever existed. Even Christian sources are problematic – the Gospels come long after Jesus' death, written by people who never saw the man.... Most importantly...these mythicists point out that there are Pagan gods who were said to die and rise again and so the idea is that Jesus was made up as a Jewish god who died and rose again.... The mythicists have some right things to say... The Gospels do portray Jesus in ways that are non-historical."
