    Needs to do some research ...

    Jesus was around at Creation & in the OT during Theophany. One Theophany was in Judges. Then there is King Melchizedek. So Jesus was around way before yoga, zen, Aristotle or Socrates.

    He needs to just delete the paragraphs on home schooling. He has fallen for the largest myth there is, the elephant myth or the myth of socialization.

    I thought the cursing myth showed immaturity & a lack of using a thesaurus. Dumb ass is the best you got ? REALLY ?????
