Articulate it for me then, Moshe.

This is your problem to explain. I can’t do it for you any more than I could tell you why you have a problem with simple arithmetic.


Maybe you’d like to tell us how the existence - or non existence - of Anne Frank disproves the existence of extermination camps.

Was she exterminated? Did she escape? What about her father?

Pick one or any, and tell me why any of your options disprove the existence of extermination camps. Can you do that? Or are you too intellectually handicapped to figure out your own argument?

I think that I was being too kind in only calling you ‘not swift’, lol.

He is incapable of that. He only knows how to run back to the safe space of MommyChan to try to find another dumbarse meme to replace his inability to think for himself. Give him a few moments and he’ll be back to prove that point, given as that he’s astonishingly predictable.

Obviously! I'm sure everyone on this forum realizes that, and I'm sure that even he knows that we all realize it. I recommend that we all ignore any further posts by him, and abandon this thread for good.
No precept or claim is more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Hey Smokey. Still waiting for you to identify which pages in Anne Frank’s diary were written in ball-point pen. I’ll make it easier for you: how many actual diary entries that purport to be written by Anne Frank were written in ball-point pen?

The only thing in dispute is how much was written in ballpoint pen and by whom.

Which Diary are we talking about? Because there are so many different versions and manuscripts (very common for a young girl’s Diary) you have to be more specific.

More tap dancing. There is no dispute. How many actual diary entries were written in ball point pen. You know the answer.
