1 | How do we preach the Gospel? | 1 John 2:2 | Hank | 100672 | ||
Radioman - Of course, my original question to Jehonadab (and the follow-up question that's still hanging) was WHY did he use the secular forms instead of B.C. and A.D. Whether by accident or design I cannot say, but he nevertheless "answered" by telling me what the various terms meant, which I already knew and told him so in my question. And he added the notation about "some informed scholars prefer to use the secular designations 'B.C.E." and 'C.E.'" without saying who these "informed scholars" are and why they prefer the secular designations -- or why he used them. Perhaps he's one of the informed scholars. :-) --Hank | ||||||

Hank: I know what you mean. Also, Watchtower publications often use the phrase "some scholars", "some authorities", etc. But they don't always identify these mystery scholars and authorities. It's amazing how they created the NWT without the aid of any Greek or Hebrew scholars whatsoever. --Radioman2 |

Radioman - Well, yes the terms 'some scholars' and 'some authorities' are nebuluous enough, but what about the term 'informed scholar' (those who use B.C.E. and C.E.) -- did you ever hear of an UN-informed scholar? I gather that if a redundant informed scholar were a mathematician, he would draw round holes and square cubes, perhaps go skating on frozen ice, die dead, and leave behind a grieving widow woman. --Hank | ||||||
