I ended my last post with a question that you answered while I was penning it. You're clearly not following, and are either incapable of or unwilling to have this discussion.

Quote:Maybe asking for book Chapter and verse is me telling you that no such verse exists.. Or maybe it me trying to find out what verse you have twisted up to create the doctrine your trying to argue, so I can untangle it for you.You can remove, add, or ignore whatever you wish from your ghost stories - so that they say whatever you wish for them to say. Why do you think this would bother me in the least?
Quote:Well, when you or someone your arguing for says the bible says_______. Do be supprised when someone who knows that it doesnt asks you to provide the ________ you claim it does.Except that we aren't having an argument about what the bible says Drich. I've had occasion to tell people this before so I guess I can rehash that now - whatever you feel the bible is saying to you is your own personal business. We take these stories how we like them. What we are discussing here is literature -discussing, mind you, and not arguing - as you haven't offered anything to argue about. If you don't feel that the author was engaging in a particular tradition, or that the specific representative of that tradition in question is the strongest candidate for that influence...offer up another, or explain why. Constantly repeating some mantra about how one story has fish in it and the other is about cheese - as if you were trying to cast a spell- is not even remotely beginning to engage in this discussion.
