Buzz - you must have started a hundred threads across I don't know how many boards and you say the same thing in every post on every thread.
You dismiss scholarship and reasonable discussion as lies and rubbish every time in every thread.
Buzz - your argument does not become truer every time you restate it.
It has just worn thin mate and I'm a bit tired.
You and I both know God still loves you and would love to have a chat - but that you are too proud and too insecure to do that - you might think this no loss but you have the knowledge to make the world a better place if you could build instead of tearing down.
Everyone is the loser at present - You, us and God.

When I see a post by Buzz I know that I'll read this sentence: YHWH had a wife Asherah and their children were the Elohim. The ancient Israelites were Canaanites and their religion was one of the same. and at that point I'll switch off.
In this thread I did and I have.

Buzz I agree with you that Jewish monotheism developed from an earlier polytheism. I don't share your view that the bible is a pack of lies but I reject utterly the view put forward by biblical literalists that the bible is a true and factual historical record. I have a background in linguistics and history in my own education, both as an undergraduate as well as postgraduate and so I too have a particular perspective on these questions. I accept that for many people these are arcane and esoteric considerations so it doesn't do to labour the point. In fact it becomes counter productive. I'm sorry you can't see that.
