Sorry Springfield, but what you;ve done is prove my point.

Jesus has nothing to do with our savior’s name, it is from the acronym.

Facts mean nothing to a gnostic.

The attraction of the assertion is precisely the fact that only a tiny, select elite believe it.

It makes them special.

Then you hold Joshua under the same curse?  Because the LXX transliterates his name exactly the same as Jesus. This proves the Greek "Iesous" was applied innocently to a respected OT figure, and was no curse.  Your theory is destroyed.

But if you choose not to interact with the evidence, that is your choice.  Some folks are into hidden Bible codes, too, and if that's what a person want to see there, no earthly power can dissuade them. The reader is free to make his own judgment.  

Peace,
