Get an education, FOOL! You have already been exposed as a fraud.

Goodness, it's Mr. T.

It has already been explained it you where the name Earth derives from. Get
used to it.

You're right - someone earlier on this thread thoughtfully pointed out
its derivation from a Nordic word.

Which derives directly from the Semitic along with all other Germanic variants! It has already been made clear to you that in Hebrew Earth is Eretz. Both words share the same common root. GET AN EDUCATION!

IDIOT! Learn Grimm's Law. T in Proto-Indo-European and Proto-Germanic
languages becomes TH in Old English.

And we STILL don't live on Planet Beyrooth, or even Planet Ooth.


The Hebrew Erath is Eretz. It is abundantly clear you are not qualified to discus the subject.

IMBECILE! The word I am referring to is EARTH not land. It is cognate with
Beruth, Birth,

From the Old Norse byror. No connection with Beyruth -

Which untimely derives from the same root as the Semitic, Eretz and Beruth.

Breath,

From Old English. http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=breath

and even Bread

Which untimely derives from the same root as the Semitic, Eretz and Beruth.


Old English; same word. Originally meant "a morsel of food".

Which untimely derives from the same root as the Semitic, Eretz and Beruth.

because it refers to the Goddess of
Nature, the so-called Mother Goddess.

Seriously, Aggy, apply some common sense. It's already been pointed
out that the Phoenicians had little contact with Britain, and it's

GET AND EDUCATION!

It has already been pointed out to you that the Germanic races are of Assyrian Semitic decent.

hardly likely that they'd have provided the source words for some of
the language's most basic concepts, least of all because the odd
trading voyager happened to have mentioned their nature goddess.

You are not qualified to discuss the subject since you don't have the faintest idea of what you are talking about an have never read any of the primary or secondary sources, let alone in their original languages.

BULL***! Beruth is the only option. You know NOTHING about the subject and
have been exposed as a systematic LIAR and DISSEMBLER who doesn't even know
the dates when particular historians lived and proceeds to try to rubbish
them not having actually read them either.

You know, imagine what would have happened if you'd made the mistake
about Josephus - I can picture it now. Instead of the simple admission

Except I wouldn't because I have actually read him and know when he lived from his own writings.

"oops, my mistake, thinking of someone else", you'd have been fighting
tooth and nail to PROVE that Josephus really didn't live in the 1st
Century and everyone claiming otherwise was an ignorant revisionist.

No. That's what you were trying to do. First with Josephus and then with Jerome. It is abundantly clear you are not remotely qualified to discuss history.

Have you any idea how much of an idiot you make yourself look with
this sort of thing, especially getting so fixated and worked up over
trivial errors.

And as for the historians, I don't recall "rubbishing" either on this
thread, and the fact that I don't have them so ingrained in my mind
that I can recall their life histories at a moment's notice says
nothing one way or the other about whether I'd read them - as you'll
recall from the previous thread I did indeed read the relevant
sections of Jerome at the time.

Oh, this would be Josephus Flavius who fought in the Jewish War, was captured by the Romans, was forced to betray his own side, and adopted then name of the line of Vespasian after he was set free. Anyone who had actually read Josephus would know from the start when he lived and when he wrote and the same goes for Jerome.
