you have no clue who i am. i've forgotten more about the bible than you will ever know.

i notice you changed your tune because i was going to slap you down for being wrong, but you correctly pointed out what the opinion of NEW TESTAMENT scholars and not non-christian scholars. non-christian scholars will go as far as saying jesus probably existed, but do not accept the biblical mythos.

btw: i told you where you can find the insult and juvenile power play.

i asked for historical reports (which there are none) of virgin birth, walking on water, spontaneous healings, resurrection, etc by a reputable historian (in contrast to ambiguous unauthenticated myth stories in a religious book).

any reputable historian will due. justus of tiberius, philo, pliny the elder, seneca, etc.

btw: it is just as offensive, if not more, to call a person's post spam for no reason other than shock value than to say a particular word that some consider "offensive."

Markjeppo, what's your point?

[high1cloud]

you're the man dr. william craig...

[Mathenaut]

Feel free to send me a message. We'll start from there.

Then, yes he is both, although he claims to reject Darwinian evolution not necessarily on a biblical basis but on a scientific basis.

[RAIDERJO76]

Hey, Mathenaut, do you have an im?

[RAIDERJO76]

Plimbuff, you're the one that's confused, because you don't even know what a genetic fallacy is and yet you are trying to take part in intellectual debate.

[markjeppo]

Well, when it comes to science it doesn't matter where you are born does it? There's no such thing as 'Christian physics' 'Hindu chemistry' or 'Islamic biology'. Funny, isn't it?

[omahavinnie2]

why don't you try to be a little more prompt in your responses and then maybe i may remember the conversation we had.

[Jayban123]

I agree with everything you've said, I have no reason to suspect Craig's true beliefs or his sincerity towards his audience. My point with the aforementioned was to show the logical and philosophical disconnect that leads to this kind of apologetic gymnastics, and also to have a stab at an explanation of why people, upon getting to intellectual maturity (i.e. university), have crises of faith... The man is a philosopher after all, and many who view these videos are philosophically inclined.

[Mathenaut]

Lets get one thing straight. We aren't talking about theists in general here, we're talking about christians. You're not in the same boat as anyone who doesn't believe in your specific god.

It says alot when you all refer to the same material, don't agree on much, then all claim to hold the 'ultimate truth'.

As for proof, it is as I said. Any verifiable, credible proof of the supernatural to begin with is where you need to start.
