Therefore Jesus was crucified once, twice. I'm surprised none of our resident christers were able to explain it that clearly.
So I see there is one less piece of crucial weirdness in the Bible today . . . . The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Quote:Question 1. You have a plate. There is no cake in that plate. You cut the cake that isn't in that plate into two. What is in your plate now? 0/2 = 0 Everybody answered correct! Yay! Quote:Question 2. You have a plate. There is a cake in that plate. You do absolutely nothing to that cake. What is in your plate now? 2/0 = undefined But everybody answered: 2/0 = 2. Hmm... I wonder why that is. |
