The Bible lists other children of Mary and Joseph. What happened to
them? James, one of Jesus' half-brothers wrote the book of James.
But what happened to the rest?

The bible does not lists children of Mary and Joseph.
The Bible lists Brothers and Sisters of Jesus.
When you go to Church, chances are that your Pastor starts off with:
"Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ."

That's purely over checker's head. By his way of thinking, he must demand that
Peter had 120 brothers.

No, the Bible doesn't say that. IT SAYS:

Mark 6:3-5
3 Is this not the carpenter , the Son of Mary, and brother of James,
Joses, Judas, and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us?" So
they were offended at Him.

4 But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in
his own country, among his own relatives, and in his own house."
NKJV

His own RELATIVES, HIS OWN HOUSE. Not his spiritually adopted
brothers and sisters. The Son of mary and brother of James, Joses,
Judas, and Simon and of sisters.

Acts 1:15-16.

Acts 1:15-19
nd in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples
(altogether the number of names was about a hundred and twenty), and
said, 16 "Men and brethren, this Scripture had to be fulfilled, which
the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas,
who became a guide to those who arrested Jesus; 17 for he was numbered
with us and obtained a part in this ministry."
18(Now this man purchased a field with the wages of iniquity; and
falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his entrails
gushed out. 19 And it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem;
so that field is called in their own language, Akel Dama, that is,
Field of Blood.)
NKJV

Of course ducky doesn't know the difference between DISCIPLES and
BROTHERS AND SISTERS.

That would be beyond him.

In Jesus Christ,
Christian (who is a member of Jesus' Body, but NOT the cultic and
heretical rcc religion)

While parakaleo acts as if he is following the Bible, reality is
slightly different. When he and I debated whether the Bible taught Mary
was a perpetual virgin, I caught him editing the Bible verse I provided
showing the Bible does clearly indicate Mary was a perpetual virgin.

The fact that he edited the text by inserting a phrase which did not
exist was a blatant admission that he could not refute my case as it
stood. The Bible as it stood was just not good enough, so parakaleo
decided to make some changes.

By that point parakaleo was throwing a temper tantrum and launching ad
hominem attacks, and since then he has never managed to answer my
arguments.

Don't be surprised if he doesn't respond to this post though, he tends
to run away rather than face me.
