Once again Pearse shows how thoroughly nasty and how thoroughly
dishonest he is.
But then we all know he is a sanctimonious, bullying coward who
imagines that hiding behind his religion exempts him from any honesty
and decency.
Instead of running away yet again, why not answer the Questions about
the Josephus passage for a change?
You can't keep your ears covered for ever screaming "I can't hear" you
for ever.
They won't go away.
Everybody knows what a snivelling coward you are.
The Pearse questions:
Why would a Jew who never converted call Christianity "the truth?
"Scholars think it's genuine".
Why would a Jew have called the coming of the Messiah a misfortune for
the Jews?
"Scholars think it's genuine"
Why would a Jew who believes the OT prophesies referred to earlier
more mundane events, think Jesus was 'as the Divine Prophets
foretold'?"
"Scholars think it's genuine"
Why would a Jew have called Jesus the Messiah and not converted if he
believed it?
"Scholars think it's genuine"
Why does he say "about the same time" when describing events circa 19
CE, for something 14 years later? This would be like saying that Gary
Powers was shot down about the same tine as the Pearl Harbour attack.
"Scholars think it's genuine"
What do you imagine that this tells us about both you and these
so-called "scholars
