re: How many thousands of years until current believers give up?

None of those accounts contradict each other. It's like me telling you I went to town today. Then telling someone else I went to Walgreens today. Then telling someone else I cut grass today. Then you come back and tell me I'm a liar cuz I told you I was in town today... in fact, I did all 3. But u are so intent on disproving me,you latch onto one snippet of what I did just to discredit me. Why do you think all of the Gospels are included? They each complement each other to give us a better account of those days leading up to, and directly after the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. There is no contradiction. Quite the opposite. Y'all can all laugh and scorn all you want, but that doesn't change the truth.

...and I didn't log off to run from recourse. I did it cuz I've got to work. I don't get to sit on TD all day and bash people like some of y'all do.
