LOL Your opinion is not a fact. Stating it as one *is* and argument.

Obviously you do not know the difference between facts, opinions, and arguments based on such. Are you challenging the truth of the things I have stated about myself? On what basis? If I say, “I enjoy jazz music,” is that fact or opinion? If is say, “Dizzy Gillespie is the greatest jazz trumpeter of all time,” is that fact or opinion? Can you tell the difference between the two statements?

I don’t think so, as their objections list things that I don’t believe either.

Then obviously you need to be careful identifying yourself with this label.

I have simply been arguing for Biblical prophesies not having been fulfilled in 70AD but still being pending.

True, the question is, “which ones?”

“Are you challenging the truth of the things I have stated about myself?”

LOL. What you said was: “I used to be a futurist when I was an immature Christian and not very proficient with the things of God and interpreting the Bible.”

It seems to imply that you believe that people who subscribe to theology you label as “futurist” are immature and non-proficient in matters of Christianity and Bible study.

On second look, it still seems like an absurdly hidden ipse dixit and Appeal to Ridicule. Or maybe you just felt you were immature and non-proficient back in the day and, completely unrelatedly mind you, around that time you also got into what you call futurist. If that’s the case, then I hope that your futurism studies helped you get some maturity and Bible skills.

“True, the question is, “which ones?”

I will be happy to prepare a list for you, in addition to the website I gave you that already lists them all, just as soon as you provide even a bare outline to who the two witnesses where, the stinging creatures were, Wormwood was, the mountain that fell into the sea was, a third of the stars falling out of the sky was, etc. in 70AD.
