Typical. You have resorted to that line before. Time for a new one.
It was a joy reading Blasater1960’s (and others) counters and challenges on that thread. I’m so sorry they upset you so much.
It seems you are the one who gets upset when you see something that in some way positively supports a religion, and will even resort to advocating the arguments of one against another when you reject both. And why have you done attacked faith for years on a pro-God forum?
When you’ve recovered, perhaps you can get back to the article instead of drawing pathetic baiting tangents.
It is you who engage in baiting Christians, and invoke Jewish or Muslim views against Christianity when in reality it is your practice to denigrate all religion. You think i did not see thru this? Do you want to be exposed more?
He’s not fooling anyone, except perhaps, himself.
Of course valid arguments countering a religion can come from any source, including and especially from those antagonistic to it (in this case, the Jews).
I’m surprised you didn’t even realise this to be the case.
When a religion propounds itself as the truth, and thereby tries to knock others down, an objective, unbiased evaluator would be obliged to hear the counter views to see if they have any gravitas. And boy, does Blasater1960’s arguments against the failures of alleged prophecy have weight. He was tearing up the place with his challenges. Where he fails though is in the larger theological implications, but that’s immaterial in that specific scope where the claims of Christianity were being evaluated against the basics of Judaism, not Atheism.
I think I’ve said it quite clearly before that everything is game in the evaluation of truth, including invoking arguments from those antagonistic to the proponents of the claims being challenged.
You see this as a baiting game, I see this as a wholistic approach to measuring the truth of a claim. If the Jews can visibly demonstrate the failures from unfulfilled prophecy that the Christians claim, this becomes an argument against Christianity. Why should such an approach not be entertained? Your approach is illogical because you think it’s wrong to do this. Sheer nonsense.
Read Blasater1960’s replies in the link provided earlier. Especially the latter ones. No serious claimant can disregard them without a proper response, if they also want to claim to be intellectually honest.
