Even assuming the passage is totally genuine, two fires had destroyed much in the way of official documents Tacitus had to work with and it is unlikely that he would sift through what he did have to find the record of an obscure crucifixion

Why? If it was a popular myth, why assume he wouldn’t try to confirm/deny it

According to Bart Ehrman, Josephus’ passage about Jesus was altered by a Christian scribe, including the reference to Jesus as the Messiah

So? I’m not presenting evidence for him being a Messiah. I am saying there is some independent evidence of him existing.

B. The second line in Tacitus that mentions Christ and his death was never noticed until after the mid-fourth century. So this second line is fake.

I agree that is bizarre, but not proof of it being fake. Though should be taken with a grain of salt.

This is why Bart Ehrman specifically dismisses Tacitus and Josephus. As do most other biblical scholars.

Who is Bart Ehrman and why relay his beliefs rather than speak for yourself?

And in the case of jesus, we have literally zero independent verification.

But DO NOT imagine chewing on a towel

That sounds like a joke from the doctor that the patient missed

If your intention is to scare people who didn’t sign up for it iirc that is assault.

Interesting, but I often see it used not for people who oppose any form of change, but for people who oppose a specific change. And it’s intended to be more slanderous than conservative.

I agree he’s not funny, but that’s not really how most people use reactionary

Ok, but it was understood what they meant

Why does it matter?

What does reactionary mean other than just being an insult?

Nixon Foundation has been posting edits of him on their Youtube channel, tons of pro-Nixon comments

I need newer software versions for my work

Ohhh, I get I wasn’t thinking about it that way lol, my bad

Ohh, but why in this context then still

Wat

“can’t stop won’t stop” is definitely the most out of place.

And “campground” is too many syllables. If someone actually said that they’d replace it with something else

Only if it’s ironic

Meh, I like how it sounds, but it is just listing events and rhyming them

Yeah not a fan of the bloat for bloats sake. I like the idea of components, but it should be statically compiled
