Just for the halibut I google a bit myself. I'll let you know what comes down the pike. It cod be interesting. OK now that is funny! I think you guys have too much time on your brain. LOL!!

Yeah, sometimes we have a whale of a good time here. But seriously, this site serves a great porpoise for all of us.

Well I don't know any of those people. A person is known by the company they keep.

BTW, if Elvis were alive, he'd be dead by now.

Your conclusion isn't logical, if Mark's report is accurate.

One could have been by the Sea of Galilee and also in the region, district or border/boundary of Decapolis...The region of Decapolis was a big place and you are, without evidence, going farther south to make your point.

Even if it was like going from D.C. to New York via Boston, you don't know, or can't prove, that Jesus didn't do it (and thus, that Mark's report is inaccurate).

But...You are a man of many talents, Professor - very interesting.

Born agains eat their daily bread, which is sufficient for all their needs.

Yet they're not willing to get their own, and they make repeated demands that it be given to them.

If that made any sense, you'd be almost ready for prime time posting

And you said that you didn't discuss religion...This is the second time.

My sense of humor may be a bit dry, but yours appears to be missing entirely. ;-)

I'm not discussing religion. I'm discussing claims made about the world that are susceptable to testing. If you are basing your faith on assertions that can be falsified you might hear from me.

I have no problem with people believing in miracles provided they do not make false claims about the physical world.

Your looniness scale aside...that is what the Bible says.

How does your looniness scale operate anyway?

Are you absolutely positive that all of the springs of the deep bursting forth is an implausible event?

How do you know?

Very punny! Thanks!

How do you know the Bible is literally true?

Hmm. Every English Bible, aside from the NIV, seems to agree with you too. It's often been asserted that the NIV has an inerrantist bias. This appears to be an illustration. From here:

Please present to us then your method for testing and falsifying the veracity of the Biblical claim that all the springs from the deep burst forth, which contributed to Noah's flood.

Do you have evidence that these springs did not burst forth contributing to the flood?

And seeing how Noah's flood involves supernatural elements, your scientific disciplines can't trespass into it's territory...as science doesn't deal in the supernatural.
