Greek was known to Europe by that time and finding a scripture written in Greek and two Egyptian writings made it possible to understand old Egyptian.
As for Jesus; I'm not doubting they spoke Aramaic but the existing Gospels were written decades after Jesus, after the Christian movement started, and after Greeks joined it by the truck load. The Apostle Luke who was not one of the 12 with Jesus was Greek himself. There is absolutely no chance in my mind that the new testament was written in Aramaic first then years later translated to Greek. They would have been written at the same time. And the Old Testament was not originally written in Greek but was definitely translated to Greek before it was translated to Roman.
That's all I'm saying. The point is what the point was in the beginning; it's not quite as simple as 2+2.

I can dig your point of view even though I don't agree with it.....

You mean you don't agree that there is a Christian God. We've already shown that it is harder to disprove God than it is to prove 2+2=4.

No we haven't, we've both added to each other's knowledge, but neither of us has completely proven either theory...
I believe and I live by a theory that everything in life is simple, people make it complicated, but it initially is simple....
so it is my belief that it can be simply proved that God does not exist, however, it is complicated to get someone to excepted it....
Nameste, Shallow!

The fact that you even consider my side of the argument a theory proves it's more complicated than 2+2. If I was arguing that 2+2=6 would you waste any time responding to me? I know I wouldn't if you were saying that.

I consider all sides of all arguments to be theories... if it was fact, there would be no argument/debate/etc....
It makes my ability to argue a point that much more open-minded and potent at the same time....
and it allows me to Dig your opinions without being upset and feeling that I have to prove you wrong, because I don't.... I tell you my theories, you tell me yours, and hopefully we'll both grow...

Exactly. I feel the exact same way. (Still haven't read those articles you sent my way but that's more on my own procrastination. I could overload this board and crash the server just listing the things I haven't gotten around to yet.)
I am a Christian yes, but I never argue with non-Christians in an attempt to convert or present my Christian beliefs as absolute facts.
I am however also a math tutor on occasion and if someone I was tutoring said 2+2=6, I'd definately present 2+2=4 and absolute fact and tell them they were wrong.

That sounds about right.
Jared Taylor:
Look, the bottom line is, Catholics cannot be considered Americans. America was founded upon Enlightenment values, which the Church opposed. Today, Catholics remain some of the stupidest people in the world. They basically support any injustice, have little concern about government interference in the economy or anything else as long as the government bans abortion and homosexuality, and generally cannot be counted on to defend white civilization. I want all Catholics out of this country. Fucking Taigs.
