Of course, which was why I said what I did. You already knew the answer to your challenge and rigged the bet.
For example, one person might say that the church getting that new lesbian "pastor" down at the corner of Devil's Lane and Weird Boulevard is a Lutheran church, while the other party says, no, that church is Presbyterian. The first party might then say, "Bet me." If the other party accepts the wager, they have a bet. Both parties to that bet believe they already know the answer for sure, but only one of them can be right (and they might both be wrong, if their knowledge is incorrect). If the one offering the bet knew for sure it was a Lutheran church, they are still not at all rigging the bet. That's just the way those kinds of bets work, and all bettors are aware of that. Your claim there is wrong.
You are also missing my whole point about post #1281.
Here is the contents of that post:
If you read Elsie's post there carefully, you will see he quotes me in the first line of that post, and also in the last line of that post, and he separates those two quotes by "but", as if those two lines are not saying the same thing, but, in fact, they are saying the same thing.
[me:] I said "the Bible does not say they were not at the crucifixion".
[Elsie:] True; you DID say this; BUT..
[Elsie:] ...your CHALLENGE said THIS:
[me:] If by the end of the day tomorrow (1/28/15), you can show me a Bible text that says that the apostles were not at the crucifixion, I will immediately donate an additional $100 to Free Republic...

That was why I offered the same bet to him - his post made no logical sense.
The reason I offered that wager to the first person I offered the wager to, was because that poster had said that the reason I never saw such a statement in the Bible (about the apostles not being at the crucifixion) was because I must never read the Bible. (I already showed that to you in post #1648.) That was why I offered him that wager, after he made that kind of remark.
(I really did not want any kind of wager - I was just making a point.)
