What you really forgot to ask is; From whence did Stephen get all his Jewish history?

When was Stephen's Bar Mitzvah?

Btw, have you updated your calculations on "How many angels can dance on the head of a pin?"

No real answer, heh? Did Stephen make all that history up?

Listen carefully. I already kn ow what you believe. That's the problem behind everything you post.

1)-You think the universe was created in 6 literal days
2)-You think the 2 first humans left an evil curse on all their decedents
3)-All their descendants are corrupt from birth.
4)-There was a global flood that wiped out 99.9999% of all living things.
5)-Evolution did not happen
6)-The universe is less than 10,000 years old
7)-You haven't the faintest notion of how the universe or humans work.
8)-You think you are better informed than everyone else
9)-There is only one officially authorized religion
10)-Your creator is justified murdering children

How can I take you or your interpretation of "Stephen" seriously?


And then there is number.....

11)- You have no sense of humor

Why don't you give us your interpretation of Stephen's speech?

You said

For the purpose of providing context, the following event is what caused Stephen to give his speech the Council of religious elites:

After I told you for the thousandth time.....ultimately, YOU are the final arbiter of how the prophets, the apostles and Jesus interpret the bible. So why give you my version which you will discard anyway for not being your understanding?

As usual I am quite aware of your literal interpretation in so many other things, while you refuse to even consider anything else.

So let's cut to the chase and bypass the middlemen. Explain it in your own words referring to key excerpts from his speech. I explain my views that way..
Why can't you?

After all these pages you have not explained your twisted god's so-called
"justice" in your absurd literal rendition of the Exodus infanticide.

So I suspect you will mangle Stephen's speech in a similar way.

However, if you post you take, I will see if that is anything other than what I expect of you.

If so, maybe we can discuss it.

I gave my explanation of God's 10th plague. What part of the first 9 plagues and why they were executed upon the Egytptians didn't you get?

Give us your rendition of Stephen's speech, you coward.

Anonymous. He (she?) wrote a lot of fiction. The important part is that the NT is obviously fiction.

BAD fiction. They can’t even get their stories straight.

There's not a thing wrong with "their stories". It's your spiritually darkened mind that is the problem.

What's obvious is that is your personal bit of conjecture. You're making the claim, prove it. Should be very easy for you since it's so "obviously fiction".
