Oh, the dude who 'self-inflicted' stigmata?

If the church held prospective saints up to a more rigorous test there's be no saints.

Really sad exploitation of poor, stupid masses.

G1, now I just feel sorry for you. What an awful life, to be so desperate.

i bet you believe in the easter bunny too.

i'm sorry you're a sucker for shams and false prophets, but if you want any traction you'll have to come up with a better argument than "because i said so".

No , not really .I made my case you not only don't like it but it is irritating to you and so the Easter bunny shot comes out .

[JoeRedskin]

It's only irritating because it is beyond idiotic but you continue to deny the stupidity.

Your the guy at work whose argument is "b/c that's how we always do it" - even though it is clear to everyone, but him, that he is wrong - and he is just making everyone's day a little harder b/c of his stupidity. It's that kind of irritating.

G1, you're kidding, right? I can't take this seriously.

Correct. The act of crucifying (historically) was not death by bleeding or from the nails, but more of a suffocation and literal drowning. They were tied as you said, because joints would often come dislocated and they wanted them to remain on the cross to die slowly. Some crosses were also more of a 'Y" shape to put more pressure on the lungs and make it more difficult to breathe so they'd fill with fluid. Many hanging on the cross would have a nail below or through their ankles/feet that they'd have to use to push themselves up to take a breath of air...sounds horribly painful. When pierced (like Jesus), the water that was recorded to come out was the fluid from the lungs. He was not pierced to see if he was dead, it was to make sure he was.

He's a Giants fan from NJ. I know many Giants fans and people from NJ in real life and I don't doubt for a second that GI is just being himself.

You don't just do random actions anywhere, you set out examples and use consistent settings.

Likewise as JR said, we don't know where else a god might choose to demonstrate his existence in the universe. Perhaps if science ever makes intergalactic travel a reality we will find that he has revealed himself similarly on many planets, or perhaps we don't but to say the vastness of space somehow bears witness against a creator is just blather.

A man walks up to God and says "Oh God, I am but a piteous soul seeking to understand your wisdom. Please help me understand, how long is a second to you?" God replies "An infinite number eons, so long as to be beyond your reckoning." The man says "God, poor soul that I am, help me understand your wisdom, how much is a penny in your reckoning?" God replies "A sum of riches so vast as to be beyond the sum of all the sand particles on all the beaches on Earth." The mans falls to his knees and asks "Oh God, can you please spare a penny for a poor, helpless creature a penny?"

God replies "In a second."

Jesus appeared to a man in a vision and, because the man had been a good Christian, Jesus granted him a wish. The man wished for a road bridge between California and Hawaii to make it cheaper to get to Hawaii for golf vacations. Jesus said, "Bridging all of those miles of open ocean? That's nearly impossible even for me! Please ask for something different." The man then asked, "I want to understand women: why they laugh, why they cry, why they do the things that they do and why they think the way that they do." Jesus replied, "Will that be two lanes or four?"
