I didn’t realize that being a homosexual was an insult. If so then I apologize, I disavow my comment (which was surely in jest) and I agree to have it deleted from the record.

That being said, like I suggested a few posts ago, I am happy to be corrected. I would never intentionally lie about something. If I got a few minor details wrong, it was not my intention to be wrong about those details.

Simply use the quote feature, quote me and then post your correction and reliable source of your correction below my quote. Unlike the arrogant people who think they know everything there is to know already, I am happy to acknowledge errors and new information.

BS! I have seen no indication from you that you are even marginally amenable to correction, no matter how strong or abundant the evidence presented against what you claim. The more and stronger the evidence against you, the more you double down on sticking to your original assertions. Classic backfire effect!


You have to be able to translate from Holocaust Denier-speak into English. “Arguing in bad faith” means refusing to play Holocaust Denier Calvinball. If you don’t accept his definitions or premises, you arguing in bad faith. Yet, lying over and over and over again is good faith as long as he’s the one doing it.

His whole willing to learn speech is an act. Go read his first thread here and ask yourself: is this guy here to learn anything? Is he happy to be corrected?

Yes, I know your little game. You used a slur. You intended it to be a slur. Own it instead trying to play innocent. You do understand that people are smart enough to get context right?

Or are you going to claim next that you just meant to call me a bundle of twigs?

You only get one chance to make a first impression. You made yours. No take backsies

LOL I apologized, disavowed, and agreed to remove the comment about homosexuality that you find insulting. You should learn to take yes for an answer AND not argue in bad faith.

Actually I don’t think so. Look at the absolute meltdown some people are having, calling for censorship and violence towards me, in the Terrestrial Forum when I attempted to give a little context to the Bible and Book of Mormon genealogies.

Smokey, your whole approach here is bad faith. You spend days flat out lying about Jews, spreading propaganda that ranks right up with the demonizing by the Nazis. Then you start a new thread devoted to claiming that Jews have hijacked the Bible for their own nefarious purposes. But you play innocent because, gosh, it’s separate thread.

You’re a phony. Start to finish.

Start with King David and Jesus. They are the most important figures in the Bible outside of the Pentateuch, define Israels relationship with their God and are of the tribe of Judah. All of the promises to Israel made in both testaments are tied to them. You want to say the Bible isn't about the Jewish nation? Start there.

Sure, you're going to "give context to genealogies" that don't exist, while simultaneously claiming that millions of Jews were not killed by Nazis during WWII, and that concentration camps were actually resorts that the Germans shipped Jewish folks off to, out of the goodness of their hearts. ; )

Gladly. I hope it’s ok with you that my replies will be on the Terrestrial Forum thread about this topic.
