<<<Since people ARE disputing it, it cannot be an "undisputed"
fact.>>>

We are not talking about the ignorant in this newsgroup. We are
talking
about ancient HISTORIANS!

What's this "we"? You may be talking about ancient historians, but no-
one else even mentioned them.

We that know about history.

So, only people who "know about history" are "talking about ancient
HISTORIANS" here...? So I suppose the rest of us are actually talking
about the real issues...?

The rest of you are talking about things you have no comprehension and
understanding of.


I think I mentioned before that I was talking about the definition of
"undisputed" being "not disputed," instead of "disputed by many people
who don't fit one Usenet troll's preconceived idea of historians let
alone ancient ones."

I clearly have comprehension and understanding of the definition of
the word "undisputed."

But if you _really_ want me to talk about something else...

Mr Hare should provide his residents with slightly thinner pillows to
prevent this from happening again, but he couldn't figure out why she
always had to go through there into the inner courtyard of the Elves?

Personally I'm talking about the
definition of "undisputed," which means "not disputed." It doesn't
mean "disputed by many people who just don't happen to fit your idea
of a historian, let alone an ancient one."

Twaddle. Not one ancient historian disputed Theseus existence,

Irrelevant, since other people _are_ disputing it.

You are not qualified to dispute it not are you or anyone else in any
position to dispute it.

But we're having a dispute now, aren't we? If you don't think I'm
qualified to dispute it, then why are you having this dispute with me
now? If you really think I can't dispute it, then don't encourage me
by replying to my posts. Just ignore anything I post in this thread.


SPOONER'S SUCCESSOR! For a start, they could be liars _with_
knowledge of history but who decided to ignore it and lie anyway. :)

They are still liars.


But even liars don't lie 100% of the time.


No they have not. They are not historians if they dispute it, and no
historian is in any position to dispute it unless they have a time
machine.

Irrelevant. I'm not talking about historians, ancient or otherwise.
Why do you keep bringing them up?

You don't have a clue what you are talking about.


Are you saying that I _am_ talking about historians, ancient or
otherwise?

Perhaps it would be easier for you, once again, if I talked about
something else...

Perhaps you should just try to spy on the elves from far away to see
how it's got anything to do with me. I also want to place my legal
affairs in the code, somewhere. No one seems to be tarred with the
broom?

There's some truth in that, but you need to be very selective about
which texts you choose to believe and how you choose to interpret
them.

WRONG! That is a load of unfounded BULL***! All HISTORICAL texts are
equally valid.

So how do you tell _which_ ancient texts are HISTORICAL texts and
which are the UNHISTORICAL ones?

Read them. Like from the start, like where they say they are histories and
like where they name historians who they are citing or using as sources.


But they could still be lying. Liars aren't a modern invention, are
they?

Unless of course you have a time machine and have been
there.

Even if I had, you'd probably still call me a LIAR.

You don't have one otherwise you would know the truth.

Like I said, you'd still call me a LIAR.

You don't have one otherwise you would know the truth.


Do you know the truth? If so, does that mean _you_ have a time
machine?


And did they even do any forensic tests to confirm these bones all
even belonged to the same person in the first place?

Well going as how he died after he was pushed off a cliff, it would be
obvious that the bones were his from the fractures they sustained.

And Theseus was the only person ever who died from falling off a
cliff...?
