July 2008 Screwballs

[Kabane52]

Absolutely stupid comment from a Skeptic:

Besides Jesus is a character in the bible so you can't use the bible to prove his existence, that is just circular logic.

[Virgil]

I just stumbled upon Encyclopedia Mythica, which holds mythologies of all kinds. I found their article on Adam, and this is what it says:





Now, I don't know if that's how Adam is portrayed in some other religion. . . . .but this looks silly. Can anyone confirm if that's legit?

Given the reference to Mecca, and the different names I would probably guess Islam(could be wrong though).It could probaly come from Talmud or some apocryphal Jewish text too.Talmud and targum elaborate on a lot of the stories in the Tanach.
Some parts appear to come from Islam

It looks like some weird mix of Christianity, Islam and paganism.

But thanks for the answer.

Dude. . . . .

They had supply vans in first century Jerusalem?

AWESOME!!

Well obviously the same group of robots from the future who resurrected Jesus brought over a couple vans.Any conclusion is equal(as long as it doesn't include god).

I came across this piece of platinum in the screwball goldmine that is teens-4-christ:

Is there anything wrong with a Christian girl saying "stinks" plz let me know if there is

If you are saying something has a foul odor about it, then there is nothing wrong with saying it stinks (duh) but if you are expressing your frusration, then it is one of those Christian swear words. For example, if you stub your toe, and you exclaim, "Oh stink!" The phrase becomes an expression of your pain and frustration. In that case, it is a sin.

[Truth be Told]

This world is becoming more pathetic with every passing minute.

I got this comment:

Check out the Wikepedia article "Jesus Christ in comparative mythology".

I replied:

Citing Wikipedia isn't an argument. It does the same thing that I ask in this video not to do. Please provide the evidence I asked for.

He replied back

Wikepedia (like ancient copies of Gospels) can be edited by anyone.

[DoomRater]

Ask them with what time machine.

Yet another screwball nomination to John Lance Armstrong, for this piece of asininity that's apparently made to debunk C. S. Lewis, who, in Johnny's opinion, was the best Christian apologist in history.

I invite anyone who wants to to participate in the comments section with me. The idiot doesn't even know whether or not Lewis was an atheist-turned-Christian.

The debate with JPH comes up as well.

Why are the most idiotic atheists usually named "John"?

Yeah, I have the Encyclopedia of Fantasy, and it has similarly screwbie comments on biblical stuff in general.

Note: I am a theistic evolutionist. I used to very actively debate the topic, now I'm more passive one, but that knowledge is required to understand this comment on a video dealing with the Sumerian Innanna tablet. I linked to JPH's article on it, and he replied this:

I expect that you received a lot of crappy essays and research from creationists when you presented research and valid arguments. And I suppose it made you want to throw up. The link that you found "The Inanna Banana" is one of these. I will comment no farther. You keep the prize, for like the creationists you debated no amount of research was good enough. Your the same just under a different context. "Everything I do, I feel is genius. Whether it is or it isn't."
