The Bible is "short" on precise details because Jesus made a short work of it all. Now ya'll have a blessed Memorial day weekend.

In other words, nothing (unless my parents went to the zoo on a date). Monkeys are non-hominoid simians.

As you are clearly ignorant about such things, just take comfort in the fact that everything you say out of ignorance will most probably be wrong.

Which Jesus, the angel, the one who was devoutly Jewish, the gentile influenced one born over 10 years later, or the Gnostic Jesus?

Yes, the NT describes at least 4 mutually incompatible Jesus'.

Enjoy your fantasies, Fundie.

Fantasies and delusions are only called facts by believers when the words religion or faith are attached to them.

Any evidence for that...other than your Bible?

Nope. The OT is full of statements claiming that the laws will last FOREVER and that they will NEVER change. Even your man-god said that not one jot of the law will change until heaven and Earth pass away. Don't know if you've noticed but 2000 years after he allegedly said that...the Earth is still here and therefore, according to your Jesus, the laws still stand.

Yeah! 24/7 of witnessing miracles and at the end, they put their 'souls' in danger by denying him.

As gMark ended at Chapter 16;8 but had chapters 9 - 20 added at a later date. So much for the 'never-changing' word of God huh!

Many people do so. Thousands of Japanese soldiers sacrificed everything because they believed their Emperor was a god. Was he?

Yes, archaeology. You know, the main tool to verify ancient history. At the very least, it gives credibility to the Biblical accounts.
...and yet, when that very same archaeology shows the Bible to be wrong...you don't believe it.

Still waiting for you to explain (if the Earth is flat as you claim) why everywhere doesn't get sunlight as soon as the Sun rises?

Hi Robert...hope all is well. You spoke correctly...the sun rises. It also sets. Both actions require the sun to move. The sun in our sky is local...in the firmament where God placed it. It's an electric spot light, lighting the areas it's local to as it moves.
