Oh and before we proceed further, I think we ought to clear up this issue of Life-Death-Rebirth deities. Rebirth and Resurrection are interchangeable as you can see here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life-death-rebirth_deity
Jesus' name is on that list, as is Osiris', Baal , Melqart , Adonis , Eshmun, Tammuz, Asclepius,Dionysis, Orpheus, Mithras, Krishna Inanna etc...the list goes on. The scholars agree that rebirth and resurrection, in the religious context, are the same.

"For all things have been baptized in the well of eternity and are beyond good and evil; and good and evil themselves are but intervening shadows and damp depressions and drifting clouds.Verily, it is a blessing and not a blasphemy when I teach: ‘Over all things stand the heaven Accident, the heaven Innocence, the heaven Chance, the heaven Prankishness." -Nietzsche |

The reason you want to make this soley between you and change, is because in the past I've highlighted the parallels in a manner to which you could only respond with fallacies. This could go alot smoother and quicker with two people providing the information, as it is quite a lot of information.

Then I'd recommend you giving her the evidence off the board and letting her post it herself. I did not agree to accept evidence coming directly from multiple people without responding to any of them. |

Again, I disagree. Resurrection means restoring a dead body to life, not being reborn into a new body, which is more like reincarnation. But, again, I'll leave it to the SFN members to decide if they're one and the same. |

David, I kinda need Teched to help me post the information, I have pages and pages and pages of it. As he said, he just posts and he doesn't get to vote. If I do not get his help it will take me too long to post it and then the people wont get to look it over and vote. Maybe we need to extend the time by another week or just a full month?
I also started a new thread that I would like it JUST for the evidence. Also, no special pleading on here! |

Okay. I'll allow him to post the evidence without responding to him, either. But this only goes for you and Teched, no one else. Okay? |

It must be pointed out that King David has absolutely no qualifications, formal training or credentials of ANY KIND on these issues. So, it should never be left up to him to determine what is or isn't credible evidence. King David is just another Christian out to shore up his faith at all costs by dismissing evidence or just denying it. |

Good thing we're leaving it up to the people at SFN then, huh? |
