Now being in a forum you either agree or disagree with what the participants say unless you are a zombie that got in this forum for unknown reasons.
Yes that's quite correct, I'm a zombie with over three years membership who just so happens to have racked up nearly nine thousand posts with a kudos ratio of 2.25, a reputation rating forty-three times yours and regarded well enough by the community to have been offered a Staff position. Misrepresenting my character in an attempt to discredit my words - an ad hominem attack - only results in judgement being drawn about your own.

Of course you never said that the fighters got inside Troy in a wooden horse following R.Salesman ideas so in this case if we follow the statement of what was said then i certainly will have to apologize and in this sense i do apologize on the other hand i do not believe for a minute in your professional honesty as if you wouldn't agree with what R.Salesman said you should have said so.
I will not be deflected by your red herrings, except inasmuch to deliver the following for your education: if I make no comment about another member's post when I am addressing yours, the intellectually honest position is to form no opinion at all about my motives. That you have chosen to do the opposite is most revealing.

No, you stated that there were many such witnesses, without offering any further details. I asked you to name some of them. Why is this so hard for you to get through your skull? Could it be (gasp; horror) that you have nothing more to offer than bald and baseless assertions in a futile attempt to appear learned?

Considering that these teaching delivered such a tremendous strength i presume that the teacher had tremendous power able to do extraordinary things.
This is logic.
No, this is more bald assertion and sheer bafflegab. How can you justify claiming that these early xtians wouldn't have suffered and died (evidence for which is nonexistent anyway) unless Jesus was a tremendous spiritual teacher? What about the 9/11 hijackers? Would they have died for a lie?

I could supply testimonials that penis enlargers and Nigerian princes are genuine. In order for anyone to take them seriously, first you need to demonstrate that they are credible and even then there has to be independent corroborating evidence; particularly when the only reference to these witnesses is one brief passage in one source book of highly dubious credibility.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
