AV Publications
Dr. Gail Riplinger has published
1,200 pages of her research.
She is the leading scholar in
biblical computational linquistics.
Dr. Hinton at Harvard utilizes her book.
Dr. Riplinger conclusively demonstrates
the purified text theory.

No. She doesn't. And to top it off, I don't believe you are who you say you are. You neither write, spell, nor form sentences like someone with a doctorate in education. Nor are your theses concerning theology, ecclesiology or exegesis arranged and stated like someone who has a seminary degree. And your epistemology is janky. Further, you claim to have gotten a grad. degree from a catholic seminary, yet you either misunderstand or misrepresent Catholic understanding. Maybe you are who you say you are, but most ducks waddle and quack. If you get my meaning.

 

[sojourner]

There are thousands of dissertations
demonstrating the apologetics
of scripture and the divinity
of Jesus Christ.

Dr. Gail Riplinger's research is recent.
You've got to do a lot of reading
in order to get the information.

Again, we don't need to repeat the third verse over and over. Apologetics isn't what's needed here. As I say, your epistemology is way janky.

 

[sojourner]

Evidence that Demands a Verdict
is an excellent book.

What really is the problem ?
Is it that you don't like what
scripture actually says ?

What about the "Left Behind series?..."

 

[Audie]

Did you actually read his books ?

did you ever bother to answer my question about noahs ark?

 

[James2028]

did you ever bother to answer my question about noahs ark?

lol, I never went looking for Noah's ark,
have you ?

I did complete two graduate degrees,
does that count for anything ?
I read a lot of books and completed
postdoctoral research projects.

 

[Audie]

lol, I never went looking for Noah's ark,
have you ?

I did not ask if you went looking.

Really tough for you to just give a straight
answer to a simple question?

You seem so sure of all the bible stuff, lets
just hear an honest yes or no to whether
you believe in Noahs ark, and a world wide flood.

I believe all scripture was given
by inspiration of God, so yes.
Did you ever read the KJV Holy Bible ?

 

[Audie]

lol, I believe all scripture was given

Did you ever read the KJV Holy Bible ?

Yes, I did. More than once. A semi historical novel
with a lot of magical realism and obscurantism.
Very stilted prose in an obsolete dialect.

I take it your "yes" means you do believe there
was a world wide flood.

I dont guess you have any idea how ridiculous that is.

 

[James2028]

Yes, I did. More than once. A semi historical novel
with a lot of magical realism and obscurantism.

See how it easy it is to just say "yes" or "no"?

But not for you, you still will not answer.

You are earning no respect at all with your
behaviour. Last time-


lets just hear an honest yes or no to whether
you believe in Noahs ark, and a world wide flood

yes

Are you an atheist ?

 

[sojourner]

I believe all scripture was given

It's incongruent with the best scholarship to think that the KJV is the most accurate translation.

 

[Audie]

lol, yes

I rewrote, having seen that your "yes" was
tucked into your earlier reply.

A person who can believe there really
was such a flood can probably talk himself
into believing almost anything.

Consequently, the endorsement of such
a naive and gullible person is of no value.

or in simpler terms-what you believe in aint
worth squat if you can believe that nonsense.

 

[James2028]

why are you so angry ?

 

[Audie]

why are you so angry ?

Learn how to use the quote function.

if that is to me, I am not "angry" and you
certainly lack the capacity to make me angry.

I was mildly curious to see if you really are
as educated as you trumpet being.

You are not.

I pointed out that you are naive and gullible, and
destroy your own credibility.

That is your prob., not mine.

But... He took a counseling class! In College!!!

 

[sojourner]

I unblocked you Dr. Sojourner.
Maybe you can help Audie.

You blocked me! I’m honored! You realize that, blocked or not, I can still read and respond to your posts when appropriate, as well as the rest of the thread.

 

[sojourner]

Be honest.
Did you read Dr. Riplinger's book ?

Didn’t need to. The premise is faulty.

 

[sojourner]

Be honest.
Did you read Dr. Riplinger's book ?

Here: Gail Riplinger - Wikipedia
This is all we need to know about her. She’s a fraud in scholastic circles.

 

[sojourner]

Did you finish high school ?

We don’t know who you’re asking, since you didn’t use the quote feature. Therefore, we can only answer that those who finished high school, did so. Perhaps you, yourself, aspire to do so one day...

 

[sojourner]

Dr. Hinton at Harvard utilizes her book.
Dr. Sojourner, you've got to read a book
before you can know what's in it.
It's the most comprehensive research,
biblical computational linquistics.

I’m not going to waste my time on fraudulent material. Her reputation precedes her. Like every other snake-oil salesman that preys on the gullible. I’d rather read real scholars who do real work.

 

[sojourner]

Well you and Dr. Wikipedia must know
more about Dr. Riplinger's book than
Dr. Hinton at Harvard,
without even reading it.

Sometimes professors will hold up a book as an example of poor scholarship.
