redtideParticipantFor the erroneous examples in the flick, let’s use Horus (the first plagiarism example the movie uses) and examine the “fraud and errors”.
Before we get into this, I think it’s important to quote a direct line from the film:
“these attributes of horus, whether original or not, seem to permeate in many cultures of the world, for many other gods are found to have the same mythological structure”
“whether original or not” – that statement pretty much wraps up this whole argument. The truth is most of the religious texts concerning these figures were added to over the centuries, with aspects of their lives becoming more spectacular and suspiciously similar to Christianity. By the time the multitude of different stories (morphing/evolving over the years) are actually written down, they postdate the Bible.
Now on to a small sampling of the false claims of this flick:
False statement: Horus was born of a virgin
Fact: There are two separate birth accounts in regards to Horus, neither depict a virgin birthFalse statement: Horus was born on Dec 25th
Fact: Horus’ birth was actually celebrated during the month of Khoiak, (October/November)
(As the article and Masayako mentioned, Dec 25 is mentioned no where in the bible, irrelevant)False statement: Horus had 12 disciples
Fact: They were not disciples at all – they were the twelve signs of the zodiac which became associated with Horus, a sky god.
(the 12 disciples represented the 12 tribes of Judah)False statement: Horus was crucified
Fact: Horus is never said to have been crucified, nevertheless to have died.These are just a few of the many facts pulled form that link. But you’re claiming all his sources are flawed, because people wrote history books, encyclopedias, and any ancient religious text that predates your theory in question. What sources can be cited then if everything is biased and nothing that’s ever been documented can hold any truth?
This is the classic relativism trap. Relativism claims that there is no truth. Really? Is that true? Answer “no” and your claim is false. Answer yes, and you must admit your claim is false… because remember, there’s no truth.
If there’s no truth then why was this video posted anyway? Why do we read any of the info on this housing blog? This thinking makes reasoned dialogue impossible.
Regarding debunking Christianity, obviously I feel there’s no correct way to debunk Christianity, because I believe it is true.
I’ll stop here. I’m really finished adding to the off topic posts. Now that I’ve made my point (again), back to housing…..

redtideParticipantLet’s see. I reveal massive fraud/errors in the opening dialog of your propaganda movie, and you’ve resorted to name calling.
Wrong information is NOT knowledge.
You pushed your beliefs on this post, and I’ve simply responded with the facts to correct you.

redtideParticipantLet me rephrase this:
I wonder if Rich can rename the homepage window titled “active forum topics” to “active housing market topics”, directing only the housing related topics to the homepage for the “Southern California Housing Bubble News and Analysis” website.
All “off topic” posters will have to make a second click under user forums (dark age suppression) to fill the site with content that has nothing to do with the hosung market.

redtideParticipantIf you accept the content in this movie with “blind faith”, I suggest you do yourself a favor and read this:
http://www.thedevineevidence.com/jesus_similarities.html
It’s backed up with sources, unlike the propaganda flick. Half of what this movie claims is straight up false, the rest are word games sometimes combined with very unscholarly speculation.
BTW I’m focusing on the first third of the movie, I only had the patience to get through this much in order to shed light on the faith topic.
I apologize for the off topic response, but the record needs to be set straight. I hope we can return to housing related topics.
I wonder if Rich can modify the site to remove the off topic posts from appearing on the homepage active forum topic window?
