Don't you read your own thread.

With reasoning like that, we should also conclude that Mary is the lady in chapter 12, and that Nero is Mr. 666 in chapter 13.

Islam has always been belligerent. Can Islam change, or is it as if we are saying Islam cannot exist without being belligerent?

OK. OK, but this depends on your theory being correct. If the Apostle was trying to convey that Jesus is divine reason incarnate, then ofc this makes perfect sense. But that's a big if. But what is the explanation? I have a suggestion below. OK I agree with that. But what I'm come...

This is the point about claiming that you all take your preferred Bible's printers, as your magisterium. They are interpreting as they are translating. In order to translate, they have to interpret. No other option. So you are buying what they're literally selling in some sense. Their...

Interpretation is just inferring what the Bible is saying. You're not allowed to infer something the Bible's NOT saying. But you are allowed to infer what the Bible IS saying—but then that's the whole question here. What is the Bible saying. When it's saying something which when taken...

Desolation on the Temple mount is the abomination of desolation, that's been going on since AD 70. Just because there's a Muslim bodega there doesn't mean anything, doesn't contribute in any way to the Lord's or to Daniel's prophecy.

When you watch the movie "The Game", with Michael Douglas and Sean Penn (though @Lon warns us it's perhaps not a great movie to watch for the point, it's at least in poor taste wrt language, like rated R language; there might be other rated R content, idk, I haven't seen it in a long time), you...

You: "Thanks for the bump"

Non-responsive.

The interesting thing is that, if you have a whole raft of voters who fit the bill, then it is reasonable to see if you can get them all to not vote, or at least to throttle their votes, because they're going to ruin everything if we let them—and why should we let them...

It doesn't make it conclusive, but you do have to explain why what the earliest Church thought was wrong. Otherwise we're just supposed to ignore the man behind the curtain? It doesn't make sense. You have a novel theory—OK. Why was the early Church wrong though? You have to explain that...

It isn't like the earliest Church was like, "WE HAVE NO IDEA who Mr.666 is." They were like, "It's Nero." Caesar Nero when transcribed in Hebrew alphabet (btw the first two letters in the Hebrew alphabet are alef and bet), equals 666 when the letters, which are also numbers in ancient Hebrew...

Yes, the ones that fit, fit. Tautology. All the other ones don't fit. They're from different jigsaw puzzles. Nero was Mr. 666. Earliest Church knew it. Wasn't a mystery. The box of jigsaw puzzle pieces has pieces in it from many different jigsaw puzzles, and ofc they're not all going to...
