No you did not. At best you gave links to sites that state her
conclusions. As you yourself have said, no other academics anywhere in
the world agree with Thiering, or back up her claims. Her supporters
are a very small number of unqualified enthusiasts such as yourself.
The backup evidence on the "Pesher of Christ" website is AWESOME; it
is
the result of decades of academic study.

That is not evidence. That is just more of Thiering's unsubstantiated,
unreplicated claims.

On the contrary the truth speaks otherwise.

Recently, on sci.archaeology I pointed Tom McDonald to certain
pictures on
the "Pesher of Christ" site Section 6 Crucifixion. I invite you to
check out pictures
of key archaeological sites there or Google Image in the alternative.

Because Tom McDonald is an archaeologist, I started with Figure 1 on
the
Qumran Buildings (De Vaux).

I am not an archaeologist. I have graduate training in archaeology,
but do not practice.

However, that said, you do not understand what archaeology is, and
your attempts to present Thiering as knowledgeable in archaeology have
universally failed.

Quite untrue, I have personal knowledge that Dr. Thiering knows quite
a bit
of Qumran Archaeology. Perhaps you are totally unaware that once upon
a time
she did archaeology at Qumran... IOW, she was there; she published
her results.

So what? That's not what I wrote. I don't have an opinion on
Thiering's grasp of archaeology because you haven't done anything to
make me care.

Not quite; you could do your own homework but you did not.

So, since I was writing about your failure, the untruth is yours.

What you wrote was not the truth but only you can open your closed
mind.

This appears to be the third ng (the other two being talk.origins and
sci.archaeology) where you are laboring mightily to get others to care
about your Babs' pesher, and getting nowhere.

Quite untrue, my priority was to get backup onto the NGs. If people
don't want to click my links or are not interested, so be it. BTW,
the
"opening wedge" on calendar where I gave 4 links would require about
3 HOURS of CONCENTRATED STUDY.

IOW, you are trying to get people to care about Babs' pesher. Or is
this sort of a prayer-wheel sort of thing for you? It's the posting
that matters, not the response?

On the contrary the 4 links are NOT Thiering pesher.

But this interpretation is counterfactual.

In an academic setting you would be cut to ribbons.

I guess the Usenet world is just full of people who won't drop
everything at your insistence to devote themselves to a deep and time-
consuming study of all things Thiering in order to agree with you.

Quite untrue, at this point I am NOT insisting on anything.

But you complain that no one appears to follow up on your suggestions.
If this is not insisting, it is at least bitching.

Quite untrue; I never did any complaining; please review the record
very carefully.

Why, anyone would think that other people have minds of their own, and
lives to lead outside of your monomania! What cretins!

It's a conspiracy, I tell ya!- Hide quoted text -

You are insincere. C'est la vie.

And you are so sincere you can't imagine anyone not being desperately,
passionately, devotedly invested in Babs' stuff.

Perhaps if you were not such a prick...?- Hide quoted text -

Calm down.
