Rumours and Stuff

Extra merchandise sales...?

Trying to break into that lucrative European market?

I'm gonna put my "don't wanna be that guy" hat on for a moment...

As a Spanish speaker, it bugs me when anglos pronounce the "j" in Spanish as an "h".

The letter "h" is silent in Spanish (unless the letters "c", or "s" precede it), and "j" in Spanish is a back of the throat sound.

Almost like you're hocking a loogie, or trying your best Arabic interpretation of the word "Habib".

Carry on.

and the people recorded in the Bible hailed from the Middle East.

Enjoy your mockery and disdain for the faithful - you are clearly from the Peter Fitzsimons school of Evangelical Atheism

Nah I’m an agnostic.

I don’t have distain for the “faithful” or anyone. I don’t care.

BTW Peter Fitzetc is a knob. He lost me forever over the stadia schemozzle.

Whats the best Labanese restaurant you've been too?

Summer land Bankstown is very good. Get the banquet and they make fresh bread and serve it hot. You won’t be disappointed.

What exactly is being celebrated in regards to Pride. Are we celebrating someone's identity or sexual attraction or is someone's identity based on their sexual attraction?

Legit question here.

we’re celebrating the right to bite pillows

Conscience. The Bible (and probably every other religious text) is sufficiently ambiguous that it can't function as a rulebook to beat merkins over the head with. Ironically, atheists need to learn this lesson too.

Disagree. There are some parts that are unambiguous and you have to use mental gymnastics to handwave them away. Just because you choose to interpret a certain way doesn’t mean you’re being intellectually honest about it. Most scholarly work is different to what you would be taught at Sunday school.

You realise where Jesus is from don’t you?

Hint: It isn’t in the United Kingdom.

Jesus was a gun loving white American with blonde hair and blue eyes.

The letter "h" is silent in Spanish

That's dependent upon dialect.

The majority of south american countries do pronounce a "j" sound as a "h". For instance:

Javier - Ha-vee-air

Jamon - Ha-mon

Milojas - Mi-lo-has

The entire Old Testament is optional at best, and everything after the Gospels is potentially what Jesus warned about. We just don't know, and in fact we can't know without the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It's a mystery religion. Bible 'scholarship' is like discussing a band you've never seen play, based on a photocopy of a 2 panel CD insert.

He's talking about the letter 'h' not the letter 'j'.

This is factually incorrect. Without the OT you don’t have the NT. Jesus was an apocalyptic preacher who thought the world was about to end during his lifetime and that God was going to usher in his Kingdom here on earth. Most people haven’t read the scholarship so they’re unaware of this. They just interpret the texts based on what they’re taught by their family and church.

Correct

Jesus was an apocalyptic preacher who thought the world was about to end during his lifetime

How do you know it didn't?

and that God was going to usher in his Kingdom here on earth.

Again, how do you know it hasn't already happened?

Most people haven’t read the scholarship so they’re unaware of this.

I dare say it's impossible to see it through all lenses in the same lifetime, if ever.

They just interpret the texts based on what they’re taught by their family and church.

Or their professors

It is demonstrable that the world didn’t end because God was going to annihilate all evil in the world and there is still evil in the world. Also the Kingdom of God was going to be in Israel and everyone was going to become resurrected (with no more death in the world). This obviously isn’t the case. A lot of evangelical Christians actually don’t accept what they’re taught by secular universities when it comes to religious studies. The Jesus of Sunday school and the Jesus of history are two very different people.
