That Boat Don't Float!!

Did you have a point somewhere in this?

LOL -- does it matter now?

You already made up your mind here:

It doesn't matter. You attempts at pedantics for some yet unknown point are an exericse to amuse yourself.

But to amuse you:

Was Noah a crew member, or a passenger?

Because, 1. There was no tomb.

and 2. If there was, who is to say that the followers of the doomsday prophet didn't take it and make a story claiming he russurrected?

There is no Jesus Christ of the bible as far as evidence goes.

Who cares what King James bible says? It's over a thousand years after the fact!

I'd say your views on this are pretty well set in stone, eh?

It's easy to jettison anything that says you're wrong, isn't it?

In short -- everyone's wrong but you -- right?

Another irony meter blown to bits by AV.

Yeah, I had to read that a few times too. Coming from AV =

Cursed race?

So why didn't the Romans, who were trying so desperately to nip the spread of Christianity in the bud before it got started, just go get this body out of the tomb and present it?

Probably because the Romans had no interest in "nipping Christianity in the bud" -- it was the Pharasees who saw Jesus as a threat to their power, and pressured Pilate into having him killed to keep the peace.

As long as Christianity was perceived as a sect of Judaism -- which was legal in the Roman Empire -- the Romans couldn't have cared less.

Really, AV -- learn, then speak.

1Co 15:14 And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.

So, basically, it's an appeal to vanity: "If this didn't happen, we've been acting like idiots all this time. Does anyone here want to admit to being an idiot?"

That's a convincing argument?

Funny, this post could be directed, word-for-word, right back at you and make perfect sense.......

Could be? It has been -- on a fairly regular basis.

Anything that disagrees with AV takes a hike.

What makes you guys think you're any different than I am in the irony department?

Over the years here, I have held a mirror up to these guys who have accused me of everything from circular logic to being a creationist to walking by faith.

Many of you guys are no different -- with one exception -- and I won't go into that here.

 

[LifeToTheFullest!]

I'm free to use reason, logic and morality as a guide. You AV, are locked into a religious box, without the ability to change, ever.

There really is a big difference, you just don't see it.

O would some power the giftie gie us to see ourselves as others see us.

I'm free too:

Joh 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

Joh 8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

does it matter now?

Obviously you don't

You already made up your mind here:

And you haven't?

You haven't addressed what I said about something being 'shipped'.

But to amuse you:

Was Noah a crew member, or a passenger?

What does it matter? It still wouldn't change the relationship of the vessel. If I'm on a ship and the engine fails and even the 'crew' can't control it, it doesn't cease to be a ship. When they launch a ship, and it still hasn't been fitted out, and has no engine, it is still a ship. Several people have expalined to you about the term 'ship' being related to size. You think it's related to the type of people in it. Very unusual.

Your reasoning is really unique! It is amusing. That's why I'm still here despite the fact you are yet to make a point of some meaning.

It's why it doesn't matter if it's called a ship, or an ark. You seem to think it does matter.

I was actually thinking of that myself!

Indeed it does matter.

Your ship has an Arab phone on it.

Indeed it does matter.

Just not in any way you're able/willing to explain.

You don't want to address what I said, that's okay.

I am so glad I dont live on a plane where things like that are seen to matter.

Problem with recent argument is AV1611VET attempting to make an issue of a non-issue, by imposing a different meaning on 'ship' for no real purpose.

And even in attempting this argument against a non-issue, AV1611VET has still failed - given examples of 'ship' and 'shipped' I've presented.

so why do people indulge in this?
