Doubtful of Twitter either. Epstein(who didn't kill himself :tinfoil:) was a much bigger story.

I'm going to politely ignore the "literary invention" part of your response.

Don't think of it as anti Gospel, think of it as pro-Mark

In the Jesus Comics Universe, all the Gospels could be true at the same time, just in different dimensions.

No need to make it that complicated. Anyone complaining can simply be accused of insufficient suspension of disbelief.

You are pretty much forced to do that if you want to believe that the Gospels are historically accurate.

The Minsky Moment

To wit, that a real historical person from the Galilee must for ex post apologetic purposes be given a birthplace associated with the Davidic dynasty, resulting in what was even back then hackneyed and obviously contrived narratives to shoehorn a Bethlehemite birth onto a Nazarene.

... Huh?
There's a vast left wing conspiracy to censor truth sayers.  See their latest victim, a poor, innocent House Representive only exercising his freedom of speech, and now, this, a trial that hasn't begun yet ain't even shown on television!  Q is here, hello!?

Yes, because their *salaries* are the main contribution to making them millionaires.

Opening arguments in the Maxwell trial begin Nov 29.

I too am outraged that the media has not used their time machines to illegally broadcast this future federal court criminal proceeding where cameras in the courtroom are barred by law.

QuoteExcept as otherwise provided by a statute or these rules, the court must not permit the taking of photographs in the courtroom during judicial proceedings or the broadcasting of judicial proceedings from the courtroom.

I was about to say...the only impact that would have is make them even more corrupt.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017
