"It seems that simply changing the subject is somehow seen by you as a glorious victory. It is not. We have been discussing the historical reality that Christianity is based on. Specifically, the very modest claim that.. "Even the most critical historian can confidently assert that a Jew named Jesus worked as a teacher and wonder-worker in Palestine during the reign of Tiberius, was executed by crucifixion under the prefect Pontius Pilate and continued to have followers after his death."(Craig) If you would like to admit your error and move on to something else, I would be happy to." There have been thousands of "wonder workers" alleged in "history". Only a very unscientific and irrational "historian" considers primitive tales of talking donkeys, languages originating from instant acts of God, and such other absurdities which contradict science, as having any truth value..in spite of the fact that such "claims" predate Christianity by many centuries. There are many bizarre and risible "claims" which exist in "history". There is no good reason to elevate absurdity to levels of serious contemplation. That you could selectively believe the nonsense you claim to believe while being dismissive of religious nonsense from other primitive sources (and while yet having the gall to pretend a rational seriousness)--well...really...how am I to take you seriously?? And you want ME to admit MY error (sic) because (in effect) I refuse to believe that one talking donkey or one resurrection is any more credible than another?! You had better change the glazing on those pots!...LOL!
