Right were the ones making up stories. And the only disruption were doing is calling out your mystic BS . And rightly smacking down your empty non objections .
Nope spot on

And starts pasting apologist links while ignoring everything you say . And cooking up derpy nonsense like dozens of needless copies of a book that would need to be destroyed or chanting "some one would have noticed "or demanding mass book burnings as if someone would admit to it .
I'm sorry, but your guesses are incorrect. Also, while I may posts links, it is not normally without context, and I don't think that often. I don't normally just link and run. I have thought through the issue, and I'm happy to defend my position and walk through the reasoning, various options, and why I think what I do is the best choice. I'll also examine what you have to say (the reasons and facts) if you feel obliged to do the same.
I don't think that arguments from authority, the genetic fallacy, or just throwing out arguments without thought or context is very useful. And if you think, that I am ignoring something... call me out on it.
In regards to the OP.... he didn't really say much. And I agree. I have a book in my library with all the Old Testament allusions found in the New Testament. Further many translations are riddled with footnotes, which tell you as much. I don't think it should come as a surprise to most who have studied the Bible. Some are prophesies, some may be coincidence, and some may be re-using the language they are familiar with. Further, the early Church often alluded to the New and Old Testaments, if not directly quoting.
(edit to add: about the only thing I might disagree with is the title.)
