Nice. Here's what I think.

I think when I used the word historicity, you had to look it up. I think you went to Wikipedia, read the first paragraph and said, "Aha, I've got him!" I think you blindly copy and pasted it without looking at the primary sources.

I think you exaggerated the evidence supporting the historicity of Christ because you know that two short and obviously modified passages are very scarce. I think you throw around random shit like Shakespeare in order to look more knowledgeable than you actually are.

I think you ignored my analysis of Josephus and Tacitus because you're not capable of original thought or responding to original thought. The majority of the scholars you choose to quote without actually researching agree with me that the Testimonium Flavianum was modified by Christians. Instead, you decided to repeat yourself repeating someone else, a mark of originality if ever there was one. I think you have a fairly limited intellect and that you think intelligence is limited to memorizing and repeating the thoughts of others. I think you know very little about the historicity of Jesus Christ. I think you were not even curious enough to examine my reference to Santa Claus.

I think you tried to infer the meaning of argumentum ad ignorantium and you still don't know what it means. I think when you feel outwitted that you resort to personal attacks and name calling.

I think you're boring. If I want to read Wikipedia, I'm quite capable of typing subjects into the search box for myself.

wow man, brutal. +5 coolpoints
