Says the guy selectively editing our exchanges and then re-posting them even after being shown how blatantly dishonest they were.

Yep. All the same traits of the Reverend Tardesecret.



WTF?

That exchange didn’t happen. I just posted the full exchange and showed how the parts of it you conveniently left out were crucial to understanding what I was talking about

Yep. All the same traits of the Reverend Tardesecret.

is it correct that Darrell Brooks is a supporter of The Five Percent Nation, otherwise known as the Nation of Gods and Earths (NGE or NOGE), a sub-sect of Nation of Islam (NOI)?
The Five Percent Nation is a black nationalist movement influenced by Islam. Members of the group call themselves “Allah’s Five Percenters”. The Fiver Percent Nation preaches black supremacy and teaches that black people are the original inhabitants of planet earth, and that the white man is an evil devil.

The Beatles didn’t start out as millionaires. Success made them millionaires. But that did not change their talent for making music.

The only working class of the four was Richard Starkey aka Ringo. He came from the Liverpool slums and lived in squalid a back -to - back house.

John Lennon, just like you, was a hypocrite of double standards.

A multi millionaire sings songs about working class hero's.

How do you define "God"...
@ the Witch

I've defined what I think gods are multiple times nobody fucking reads anything here nobody pays attention to anything that said..

I did and I do. I try to pay attention to every thread that grabs my interest.  Such as when you told me about your ancient gods that came from another planet. I thought that interesting considering the bible and all ancient cultures point to the sky when it comes to the origins of their gods.  And you haven't posted anything as interesting since.

 I think that you have just come for another shit, haven't you, you dirty little Witch, you don't have nothing of interest to say any longer.

The show trial has begun in the prosecution of Darrell Brooks, Jr., who viciously mowed down onlookers with his SUV at the Waukesha, WI Christmas parade last winter.
After three days, the trial has been nothing short of a circus, which seems to be Brooks’s (who is representing himself) strategy.

Other than this reference in John, do you have any evidence that this supposed practice actually existed? There is nothing in Jewish law that involves releasing someone found guilty of a crime, at Passover or at any other time.

Of course, crucifiction wasn't allowed under Jewish law and the judicial methods bear no resemblance to Jewish law, so a random non-Jewish reference seems equally useful.
The ultimate evidence to support the Biblical quotes was the people taking up pilate’s  offer and choosing Barabbas over Jesus.

You are still referencing the bible. This is not external evidence. 

 Simply admit it. There is absolutely no evidence whatsoever for this dispensation or that it was a "Jewish custom". I can accept that you simply believe the bible version of events.

Jesus belonged to a country, spoke Aramaic , was a carpenters son, followed Judaism, religious reformer, 

 Indeed, and it was these intended reforms and how intended going about achieving them that cost him his life.

Nope. There was no insurrection at that point in time. This insurrection had already happened, and this is what they were all on trial for. The bible clearly states that there HAD been an insurrection- past tense.  And that Barabas was one of those that had committed insurrection "WITH HIM", Jesus.

Barabbas, a well-known criminal who had been imprisoned “for an insurrection in the city, and for murder” (Luke 23:19). But he was not as popular as Jesus. Therefore less of a threat to the Romans.

Wrong again. (1) The city mentioned here is Jerusalem. (2)  The population of that city didn't even know who Jesus was. (3) Barabbas was a zealot and a murder of Romans.  Who had Jesus murdered? 


(1) There is absolutely no evidence concerning dispensation offered by Rome to Jewish zealot murderers. It is rubbish that this was any type of Jewish custom.
It is more likely that this was the gospel writer are alluding to the two goats of Yom Kippur as told in Leviticus.  
Pilate refers to the custom of releasing one prisoner at the time of Passover.

FACT. There was never any such Jewish custom. If you insist to the contrary, I would like you to produce the evidence that supports your claim other than the bible.


I have said my theory is that the turning of the tables was a lot more than just a girly hissy fit thrown by Jesus. I believe it was a full-blown rebellion. And it was this that had forced the Romans hand and led to the arrest of all involved to the delight of many of Jewish the high priesthood.
Jesus was definitely a threat to the Jewish high priesthood because he called them brood of vipers.

 I don't know how old you are shila, but name calling the high priesthood would be the last reason they had to want Jesus gone. The Priesthood had a lot to lose if Jesus was to become king priest. They were puppet priests put in place by Rome.  It was a false and corrupt priesthood.

He was a murderer of Romans ffs. Who had Jesus murdered? Insurrection was an attempt to overthrow Roman rule.  An armed attempt to overthrow Roman rule.  


And like I have pointed out; it is hardly likely that Pontius Pilate would have released Jesus Barrabas a known murderer of Roman's. you need to read your bible carefully. And stop reading something that isn't even there.
Barabbas, in the New Testament, a prisoner mentioned in all four Gospels who was chosen by the crowd, over Jesus Christ, to be released by Pontius Pilate in a customary pardon before the feast of Passover.

The insurrection was evidenced by the crowds demanding Jesus be crucified. The Romans were concerned it would escalate into a riot and insurrection.
Luke 23:21 But they kept shouting, “Crucify him! Crucify him!”

The truth is Jesus was rejected. The crowd picked Barabbas.
Why?

 That is a good question.  But we have to notice that Barabbas 's full name was Jesus Barabbas
So when the crowd had gathered, Pilate asked them, “Which one do you want me to release to you: Jesus Barabbas, or Jesus who is called the Messiah?”Matthew 27:17

 It is quite difficult to imagine that Pilate would release a known war mongering zealot "who had committed murder in the insurrection.” What insurrection one may well ask?  The only nuisance that seemed to be mentioned in scripture is where Jesus over turned the tables.

  Unless of course this was something a lot worse than scripture is letting on and the authors are trying to play it down to nothing more than a hissy fit on Jesus' part.  Which I believe they are.

 The bible does say  "another man that had committed insurrection with him".

You have asked, what is God to be jealous of? >>>#614 I have shown you here>>> Exodus 34:14

" Do not worship any other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God".

That is the answer to your question. It is irrelevant if or not I am an atheist. And it matters not how long you wish to drag out this simple BIBLICAL fact, the answer will remain the same.
You really need to work on your reading comprehension dude, there’s a reason why I asked that question.

And there was a reason I answered it. The answer to your question is - other god's. Or don't you understand the answer. 

Well answer this, what was the reasoning behind the question?


It matters not to me what YOUR OWN reasoning was. You asked a simple and clear enough question. Why you insist on this pointless merry-go- round over something that you invoked only you know.

 You wanted to know what a god - your god - had to be jealous of.? #614

I told you:  other god's #617. And only god knows why he is jealous of other gods. I can only assume it was taken it as some kind of adultery or treachery or treason. Although, jealousy appears to contradict Galatians 5:20 where it clearly states that jealousy is a sin. Not to mention that Christians insists there is only one god where the bible AND GOD contradicts this belief.  But there again Christians are well known for denying what their own scriptures actually do state.

I answered your question with a response from the mouth of god himself>>>>  Do not worship any other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God". Exodus 34:14

I am not looking for truth anymore - why? Because it found me.   Why would I keep looking if I have now been found my truth? 

Is your truth the same as gods' truth?

And as for me  being here - I am an exception to the rule.

No. You are not an exception to anything. You are just another member of a forum and another speck on the planet, just like anyone else. Even though you claim to have been "chosen by god himself"



 I know that sounds weak and probably is.

It sounds arrogant and pompous to me. That is my truth.



I also like to talk with people who are looking for the truth - and hopefully I can assist them in some way.

I think you mean convince them that your truth is the correct truth. When you haven't told us what "your truth" is.





 Either by leading them to the truth or by helping them to see the truth more clearly.

leading them to your version of  "the truth", is what you mean.
What is " your truth"?




 I admit I don't always do a good job. 

No, you don't. And this is why when you are on the backfoot after painting yourself into a theological corner, you start to redefine and reinterpret what scripture actually says. This is not to mention parading all of your alleged qualification all over the forum.

Don't forget my question, will you?

Is your truth the same as gods' truth?

Regardless. You asked question about god and you had your answer from the horse's mouth. 

Exodus 34:14  Do not worship any other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.

Interesting that this jealous god acknowledges that other gods existed in his time. something else Christians are at pains to deny.
There’s no regardless, context matters bro.

There is nothing to misunderstand or take out of context. Your god makes it clear why he is a jealous god whom it is that he jealous of.  And it is beside the point whether I am an atheist or not. Those are his words written in your bible, are they not.

No such thing as ancient aliens.  Human beings are not the product of alien creation or us being bred with other animals. Fucking dumbass.

But you have said that your particular gods come from another planet, that, dear old Witch, makes them alien. And you have said that they are thousands of years old, making them ancient. So here again your double standards and hypocrisy are glaring. You are just far too thick and dense to even recognise your own shite.🤣🤣🤣

I can't honestly remember you trying to "shove your views" on anyone, Witch. I fact, whenever you are offered the opportunity to tell us about your particular views on your own particular beliefs, you run a mile, preferring instead to spout your usual misandry peppered with uncalled for vile language. Although, I distinctly remember one occasion where it turned out that you believe exactly the same as I while ridiculing my beliefs that are exactly the same as your own.

Tradesecret: I went looking for the truth and I did not find it.  Like everyone else on the same journey, I soon discovered there many hurdles and problems - of definition of validity, of recognising it when and if I did happen to luck onto it. But I kept looking - and looking.  It was only when I stopped looking - because I wasn't particularly looking for the truth as whatever I thought the truth might be.  Or what others had told me the truth was and I didn't have a better idea. Finally, I stopped.

It was then that truth found me.   And it didn't try and prove that it was the truth and nor did it try and demonstrate that it was the truth and it did not validate itself and it didn't even task me to believe it was the truth.  Yet  it surprised me as to its simplicity and its complexity.  To its rawness and to its maturity.  To its completeness and its warmth and the immediate insight that it knew me better than I knew myself.  And it didn't have an issue with me.  And it was then that truth as it were "dawned on me".

My journey is now quite different to that one.   I am not looking for truth anymore.  That is a journey that others will walk until they realise that they won't ever find it.  I have a feeling most people on this site are on that journey - whether they admit it or not. They might call it something different.  They might recognise it or not. Yet like many other countless sites all over the internet and countless churches, and synagogues, and temples, and mosques, and little clubs, atheistic as well,  these people will keep searching, and every now and then someone will find something that they recognise as truth - for a while and then they will move on - on the same old journey.  

You are on that journey. that is one reason you visit this site and others probably. You might not call it a journey for truth or perhaps you do.  but you haven't found what you are looking for yet - or else you wouldn't be here. 

All the best for your journey.  you know where I am.

There is much to add to you gasconading Reverend "Tradey".  For instance, your "orthodox Tutor connection in Moscow".  Your appearance in the Bangladeshi courts as an international lawyer.

And all of this on top of a family, children and a farm to run. 



 I have said many times now too on this forum that, for a man that claims to be a defence lawyer, you have a special ability to open the door for the prosecution. Your criminal clients that are in prison must rue the day they employed you to defend them.


@ shila  Cut out and keep.

If you were ever surprised then you would have to stop worshiping yourself. Gods know everything don't they. 

Would like to see a very good example of someone that actually does worship themselves Reverend?

@ The witch

There is no hell in the Old Testament it's a completely Christian concept. And honestly if you read through the Bible it's not even discussed until Revelation. Hell is a bunch of malarkey it doesn't exist.

Like the word god, hell is a Greek concept.

And malarkey is an Irish word. I suppose the English equivalent would be gobbledegook, or simply bollocks.

and by the way - I never said it was a criminal offence to talk about gender.  I was talking  about it being illegal to talk to someone about whether they are confused about their gender.  you may not appreciate the difference but the legislation does. 



Stop playing semantics. This is what you have literally wrote.

And let us not forget that you also live in New Zealand and speak Greek too TRADESECRET-BIO-FEMALE.jpg (1847×967) (ibb.co)

I see your little break from the forum has done nothing for your personality disorder.
Not something one would expect from a pastor or a lawyer. Should his condition improve he might return as a doctor.

Especially one that claims a congregation of over 300 worshipers, speaks many languages and tutors students in all the theological that's just to name a few of his many, many alleged accolades.
I am still waiting to see the legislation that supports his claim. Thos links offer nothing in the way of evidence. But I am not surprised.
