Goonie comment from Bloop

"How do you explain history ? the Jews have returned after 2900 years , prophesied by the bible.

How do you explain the “slayings of the spirit” in Pentecostal churches ?

How do you explain the speaking of tongues by people who have had no prior learning of the tongues ?"

So, what languages can people suddenly speak without ever learning them?

Let’s say that I can’t *explain* any of those – so what?

"Many things have been prophesied by the bible, for example the crucifixion of Jesus Christ ?"

Where? What makes you think this was a prophecy to be fulfilled by the messiah?

"How about the prophesy of virgin birth also recorded by the Koran ?"

Ok, the Koran was written post-Jesus; so it wouldn’t be a prophecy. The virgin birth prophecy was fulfilled before Jesus was born – have you read the entire Bible?

"Seriously is it that hard to give God at least 40 days ? would it hurt ? [Goonie]"

Have you given Zeus 40 days? Allah? Ishtar? Baal? Ra? Would it hurt?

Even if it were not hard to "give God 40 days" – whatever that means – I object to God/Christianity on many levels including moral reasons.

I just don’t get the first line — the jews have returned from where or to where and why does history need an explanation on this count? Are there missing words? What is the significance of 2900 years? I’m serious I haven’t a clue what this is in reference to. I’m a jew and I’ve been right here all along.

The Jews are BACK? Dammit. I knew insecticides wouldn’t keep those buggers at bay.

I can explain the slaying of the spirit and speaking in tongues. It’s called being melodramatic. It’s called histronics. It’s called blatant bad acting. I’ve seen it several times courtesy of a born-again best friend, and it’s never once managed to convince me it’s anything other than the product of an overactive imagination and a love of attention.

^^^ Aardvark weren’t you a little suspicious of the insecticide anyhow. I mean why would Jew-b-Gone come in a kosher can and gefilte flavor? Use enough of that stuff and you wind up with a serious Jew infestation.
