Contrary to Biblical History: Canaanites are alive and well

[Twilight Hue]

Let's see if you can prove that any of the Bible is mythological. Go for it.

That would mean the standards set for reality and confirmed historicy must be pretty low.

Outside from Christianity being spun off from many mythological accounts alone, iows through plagiarism, how about some actual comfirmed names of those who had
authored the Bible itself? Or actual names of the alleged thousands of witnesses involving the various life accounts of Christ that are all but conspicuously missing from every facet of university level archeology?

 

[Bob the Unbeliever]

I'm still waiting for you to prove it is myth like I asked you to.

You keep getting this backwards, silly person! YOUR claim. YOUR myth -- automatically-- until YOU provide PROOF IT IS NOT.

We have shown you that yes indeed there is archaeological evidence that at least some of the Bible is the truth.

Aaaaand we have archaeological evidence that HARRY POTTER got at least SOME things right-- such as where London was...

SO WHAT?

 

[Bob the Unbeliever]

Well, what do you say about the archaeological evidence found that confirms much of the Exodus account in which the remains of cities have been found that would otherwise not have been found if it weren't for the fact that they are right where Exodus says they would be?

I laugh and I laugh at your "confirms much of the exodus account".

Because it is a flat lie-- Exodus never happened. Period. The archeology you are so fond of mentioning (WITHOUT LINKING TO) proves beyond a doubt that Exodus never happened.

1) there never were Jewish Slaves in Egypt.

2) there never was a mass exodus from Egypt of anyone, let alone Jews.

3) Their supposed "retreat" from Egypt? Was still in Egypt! Egypt controlled all the territory in question, during the alleged events!

4) There is absolutely no archeological evidence of anyone wandering for 40 generations north-east of the Nile River, over an area smaller than New Jersey...

You just made my ignore list. You really should see a good psychiatrist about your obvious issues. God bless you.

I accept your defeat. You cannot muster up ONE FACT in support of your obvious lies.

 

[Bob the Unbeliever]

You clearly have no idea just how childish that sounds (even to the point of incoherence).

Yet ANOTHER example where proof COULD have been linked too-- but instead? Attack the questioner.

No proof? Attack the person. Nice.

Got Google?

 

[Bob the Unbeliever]

But I have, you just refuse to look.

1. The biblical narrative acknowledges that the Canaanites continued to exist.
2. Constantine had nothing to do with establishing any biblical canon.
3. The First Council of Nicaea was convoked in order to address Arianism and formally affirm the full divinity of Christ, again having nothing to do with establishing any biblical canon.

You don't know what you're talking about.

Sorry, but you have an obvious agenda. And you STILL provided no links to historical references. Just your opinion....

I'll go with Richard Carrier's essay until you can show superior references. Here's one link:

The Formation of the New Testament Canon

. Constantine did not create the Bible. That is a fact.

Really?

Hmmmm...

The Formation of the New Testament Canon

 

[Twilight Hue]

Got Google?

What should I Google for?

Whatever it is you want to know.

There you go projecting again.

 

[Augustus]

Really?

Hmmmm...

The Formation of the New Testament Canon

You are aware that this doesn't support your argument aren't you?

Feel free to quote the relevant passage if you disagree

I see projecting what someone DID NOT SAY is one of your "tools to argue". Nice.

What is that called again? Strawman-something-something?

 

[Bob the Unbeliever]

Got Google?

Yes.... apparently, you do not however.

 

[Bob the Unbeliever]

What should I Google for?

"Biblical apologizing 101"?

"Things that there is no evidence for in the bible"?

 

[Bob the Unbeliever]

You are aware that this doesn't support your argument aren't you?

And what do you imagine my argument was?

My argument was and is, that the "christian bible" was fabricated by Constantine's committee.

You may have projected something else into that-- but that's what I stated, and it's supported by my link.

If the word "fabricated" is too confusing to you? I suggest you consult a dictionary...

... or what the heck, I'll be nice:

Synonyms for fabricate
verb manufacture, assemble, concoct, construct, contrive, dream up, formulate, invent, brainstorm, build, compose, create, devise, erect, fashion, form, frame, join, make, mix, organize, produce, shape, structure, cobble up, cook up, fit together, head trip, knock together, make up, piece together, prefab, put together, think up, throw together, throw up, turn out, whip up, whomp up

I do not believe that to be accurate. Would you mind citing some supporting material?

You are not the first to point to Constantine and the Council of Nicaea. You might wish to check out Wiki's First Council of Nicaea:Misconceptions before proceeding.

Perhaps if you remove the log from your own eye first...

Nope. Wiki is editable by ANYONE. And I refuse to trust such an important point, to a source that can literally be said to say anything the True Believers™ want it to say. They have a serious investment, in keeping the BS from being exposed.

Care to try again?

Oh, the Irony, of someone who has willfully blinded themselves, complaining about someone who can actually see...
