No Evidence for 1st Century Nazareth

Nazareth was actually a town in the sand dunes of Neptune, presided over by Lord H. P. Dumpty III.

That's why your evidence leads you to believe that Nazareth did not exist. It wasn't on earth!

The only 'Nazareth' that existed in the 1st century is the one in your head! Say! You would'nt happen to be a card-carrying member of the Flat Earth Society, would you? :biglaugh:

I am a Green Knight of the masons of Jericho. I don't carry a card. I carry a phaser of the Star Trek the Next Generation variety.

We guarded the Treat Pea Tolls for 3 long years before they were rediscovered by the Buddha and published in the International Journal of BS.

In all seriousness, it is impressive to me what someone can do with spam and how abstinently they can defend it.

I may have seen worse, but I can't remember when that was.

Kudos

So let's see: You believe in Nazareth and the Flat Earth notions; you are addicted to Sensation; and you have delusions of grandeur.

Very entertaining!

Next!

So then there was the story about the monk who dozed off on a midsummer afternoon up in a tree down the road from the monastery. Suddenly, he came to the overwhelming realization that he knew everything. Excited at his new discovery, he jumps down out of the tree and begins to run back up the road toward the monastery to tell all the other monks. Halfway up the road, he encounters another monk coming toward him. Before the first monk could open his mouth, the second monk says:

'Hey! Aren't you the guy who knows everything?':D

I know this story, so I can see that you left out one of the characters. I'll fill that part in for you:

Now there was a squirrel watching all this who had no idea at all what was going on but decided to chatter at them anyway.

Why, the Bible tells me so, that's how, and ooh pooh pee doo! :D

If the Bible were spam, you'd believe that too.:yes:

Fortunately it wasn't included in your source.

I think that it's just as pathetic and tragic for a person to thoughtlessly "believe" the bible as it is for others to blindly accept obviously deceiptful crap written about it.

Well, it turns out that it actually IS spam, and that is why I do NOT believe it. However, there are certain things about the story of Yeshua that cause me to understand it as being truthful. Some of hose things are mystical in nature, and I have verified them via of my own experiences. There is no other way that anyone can have come up with them other than via of direct experience.

Fortunately it wasn't included in your source.

It was included: the reference was the several mentions of a 'city of Nazareth' in the NT, and that it was not mentioned in the OT. The Talmud was also included as a listing of Galilean towns and villages.

I think that it's just as pathetic and tragic for a person to thoughtlessly "believe" the bible as it is for others to blindly accept obviously deceiptful crap written about it.

There is nothing that I see as being 'obviously deceitful'. What is obviously deceitful is the transformation of Yeshua into the fictional Jesus, complete with his fictional hometown called 'Nazareth'.
