I too knew nothing of the lies, contradictions and general fallaciousness of the babble 'til I stumbled across the 'new testament truthiness' thread. Followed links and discovered that the apololgists demand that you eschew all rationality as opposed to the scholors that provide real evidence based upon history, archaelogy and reason.
I suppose I should thank DOC in some perverse and backhanded way.

Admit mistakes?

True. True.

Tim's posts in particular are full of sources, in contrast to DOC's, who posts very few sources other than his Big Book of Fairytales.

DOC, I look at all the posts on their merits. I follow links, I do exactly what you advise in that I let the posts speak for themselves. Unfortunately, I find your posts less than persuasive and your use of weasel words (may, might, could have) unconvincing.

Fast Eddie B · 27th April 2012, 06:23 AM

Let me repeat a caveat I've expressed at least once before in this thread.

I think it's almost inevitable that there are one or more prophecies that DOC might be able to reasonably point to and announce them fulfilled.

Not because prophets could see an already written future*, but something to do with the law of large numbers - with enough prophecies** scattered about, some are highly likely to have transpired.

So, I think having DOC only have to show ONE fulfilled prophecy is way too low a bar.

*If they could, implying the future is written, I see fundamental problems with free will and all sorts of paradoxes. But that's maybe taking this off on a tangent.

**Have we adequately defined a prophecy? Can God prophesy, or does it require a proclaimed prophet? Or can just anyone in the bible throw guesses out there to see what sticks?

If you really like chocolate you might enjoy Ezekiel's favourite treat.

So I'll go to Belgium after Dublin. Simple. Chocolate should never be a question of either/or.

But I think, think, mind you, it's hard to know for sure, that this is sligtly ot (although some would say that chocolate can't be ot).

Sadly the wine is gone but my congratulations are no less heartfelt. Say, did we get any fulfilled prophecy yet? No? Ah well, I'll stick around for the pictures. I prophecy that you will get a filled wine bottle soon. -tsig- I await the results with baited breath.(been eating Manischewitz Gefilte Fish in Liquid Broth, 24 oz, 2 pk)
