This won’t do. You have no evidence to take such a position. The only way you would justified in saying this is if you knew all of the universe and reality exhaustively.   Sorry but that is just trying to move the burden of proof. He made the claim that no god exist. He bears the burden of proof to show this to be the case. YOU claim that there is a god, specifically the God of the Bible, it is up to YOU to demonstratee that such a being...

Hitchens on India
Published (2009-12-07 19:07:00)
"Oh well, go on and keep bribing militants, supporting tyrants and encouraging theocracy, since no value system is superior than any other." Our alliance with India has to be measured in terms of Pakistani reaction. That means, sad to say, you guys don't matter at the moment, but don't take it personally. The problem is that absent (even formal, superficial) Pak support, the war on terrorism is lost. It's lost anyway...

The real context of those quotations: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nnVQ2fROOg Yes, this is what I suspected might be at play here. Climate-change deniers are just like creationists in this respect. Sounds like it.  Half baked accusations they make about the global warming data replace the wealth of contrary data they can't seem to produce themselves.  The amount of criticism attacking an unwanted reality is inversely proportional to...

Thats the whole point of the New Testament. Because I am a sinner but I believe in the Lord Christ, my sins have all been forgiven, so on judgement day, God says what sins are you guilty of commiting, Jesus steps forward and says None, I have paid the price for his sin, he is clean..... Indeed. So please tell us, is Adolph Hitler forgiven and in Heaven?

I should have re-read that - I meant mute insofar as leaving a written record of himself. Years ago I read Carsten Pieter Thiede's book where he claimed that the Gospels were being written as early as the 30s.  That has been pretty firmly knocked on the head I think.   One point he did make however, was that Jesus was multi-lingual.   Greek among the languages he spoke. It looks as if the scroll he is reported to have read aloud...

Thanks for the support, guys. I made major progress. I got a pic uploaded to photobucket, I created the link, and it inserted .... a box with a placeholder. I have display pix turned on in the browser, and I have everything enabled in about.com. I'm not sure yet what I have to do to get the pic to replace the placeholder onscreen, but I WILL find out. x

Obviously, strong India is against US long-term interests as the single superpower of the world.

I think you have to separate the person and the legends because there might indeed have been a historical figure, a wandering teacher/healer, who might have been pretty charismatic (think 'placebo effect' writ large) who had a group of followers.  Many of them did. When he died, legends grew and grew and grew until the actual person was no longer recognized as a human being at all.  As Rank ...
