Do you really think we don't understand Christian theologies?

OK, you got that one sort of right. I've seen plenty, don't need more.
Quote:You don't really want a priest ( yeah now some will make paedophilia jokes) or devout christian to explain it to you. I'm not pointing fingers or insulting anyone. It's just an observation
Yes, you are. It's just that it's passive-aggressive.
Quote:Anyway I returned because I wanted to suggest reading about biblical archaeology and how many places and people they have found. Again, not stating its true. Just sharing
Again, do you actually think we haven't?

I agree - in scapegoating the victim actually does bear the punishment. He doesn't go scot-free after three days.
Not even two days, actually: Friday mid-day to Sunday morning. Not quite 48 hours.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
