Aren't you the one who, in comments in other puzzles, deny the existence of Jesus Christ? - Now you're debating how many people He raised from the dead... interesting.
The language you are using suggests there is an established fact that I don't want to acknowledge. That's not the case. I've merely pointed to scholarly questions raised about the historicity of the Jesus character while also, often, intimating that my personal belief is that Jesus was a real person. That's irrelevant, though.
Real person or not that doesn't make the Bible true. Obviously he never resurrected anyone. Also obvious, or it should be, is that when someone refers to Biblical stories involving Jesus they are referring to.... Biblical stories. Nobody denies the existence of the Bible. That actually IS an established fact. When adults talk about Biblical miracles they are discussing what is described as taking place in the Bible, not what actually occurred in history. It's like I asked a child how many bowls of porridge Goldilocks found and you come along and say HEEY! I thought you said the three bears weren't REAL!
Also, asking a question is not the same thing as debating. I have a feeling if I ever heard you read my comments out loud in the voice you've picked out for me in your head it would be so far removed from reality as to be hilarious.
It's so rare that people talk about a historical Jesus that I think the default assumption is that we are referring to the literary character. When I say "it's true Luke Skywalker kissed his sister on multiple occasions," nobody expects me to follow that up with, "it is portrayed on screen. Whether that's actually true..."
There was a kiss on the cheek as they were about to swing through that shaft on the Death Star in A New Hope. There was a 2nd kiss on the cheek on Yavin IV as he was about to leave to attack the Death Star. There was a full on smooch on the lips at the beginning of Empire Strikes Back on Hoth which might have been trying to make Han jealous. There was another kiss on the lips as Luke was lying weak in bed after being saved from Bespin at the end of Empire. See them all here. Now... as to whether or not this really happened... don't want to disrespect anyone's beliefs by saying one way or the other.
They also very nearly kiss in a deleted scene from Empire but are interrupted by the droids. Doesn't actually happen, but it's the only time they both lean in for it as opposed to Leia planting one on Luke as a friend or to get at Han. Of course it was left out of the canon and only survives as part of the apocrypha...
same but when it wasnt accepted i immediately realized my mistake. I think it is because you hear of babylon all the time ( well if you like to research certain stuff) but you hardly come across babel.
it was more on speeddial let's say, instead of just a stored number ^^ (like how my mother often calls me and says ow, I wanted to call someone else. We dont have/do speeddials though never have. So it is more like an intuitive automatic without thinking thing)
I think this is the second or third time I've seen you say that without apparently knowing what it means or in what context it would make sense to say it. Here, it does not.
My Mom had a great come-back for supercilious folks who would
demand that she be born again or end up in Hell. She'd smile sweetly and reply: "I know I'm going to hell so, do me a favor,
and save me a spot next to you."
What's the definition of a miracle? is turning lot's wife into a pillar of salt because she looked back really a miracle? sounds more like a punishment which I wouldn't class as a miracle, but I'm guessing the use of miracle in this case just means supernatural stuff that happened in the bible
Sure, and to the pursuing Egyptians, the parting of the Red Sea wasn't a miracle. To anyone not part of Noah's immediate family, the flood wasn't a miracle. The people of Jericho probably didn't think too highly of their walls coming down, and I'm sure that army wasn't real keen on being wiped out by one guy with a jawbone. One person's miracle can be another person's curse.
Never believed, never read the thing, but appearently bible-conditioned society still teaches some...had 14/20.
I'd probably not be the worst antitheist at this game. xD
pretty miraculous that after he said this, there was light. Especially without any apparent source of the light or medium for the light to travel through.
