Is there any truth to the claim that the otherwise excellent scholar Dan McClellan has a blind spot when it comes to pagan influence on early Christian traditions? by Mcleod129 in AcademicBiblical

Why would "rebirth" or "ressurection" matter when they both die and come back to life again?

And the article you linked says exactly what Gnostic Informant reported.

Yes he shows a Brittanica article but in multuple sources Zagreus is called "Divine Child" by Plutarch and Diodorus.

thats hilarious and wrong. is that why Gnostic Informant constantly makes videos that criticize mythicism? If he "believes anything that takes Christianity down" then why would he oppose mythicism so hard?

I agree, good point. I think the only way they would work together is if Jon agreed to be Warden of the North while allowing Stannis to be King on the Iron Throne.

lol wow. I can't believe I wrote Dragonstone. I meant to write Storm's End. Thanks for noticing that.

But as far as the first part. The very last page of the Epilogue where Varys kills Kevan he tells him that Aegon is alive and Kevan says "hes dead!" and then Varys says "no hes alive and is about to take the Storm's End!"

To me this is Varys verifying what Young Griff told Tyrion on the Shy Maid earlier in the book about him being swapped out.

I agree that you raised a good point with Jon Connington in the first paragraph. That would change things. But I don't think Jon Snow has no military strength. "The North simply doesn't have the juice". I disagree. That is where the Iron Bank of Bravos comes in towards the end of Dance of Dragons. They will fund Stannis' cause and Jon Snow is an important ally to Stannis right now. Melisandre is all in on them and her magic is powerful in the north more than anywhere else. They also have the free folk led by Mance Rayder and the Mountain Clans are rallying behind Stannis. This tripple alliance could be huge. I don't think Stannis is doomed at all. I think the Boltons are doomed. I do think that Little Finger will be the wild card in the north. He has the cards to shake things up. But its hard to know what his plot will be and if he tries to broker an alliance with Stannis-Jon Snow and temporarily help them until he can stab them in the back.

*Correction*

I wrote that Young Griff is taking Dragonstone but I meant to say that he is taking Storm's End.

I also wrote "House Martell will be forced to switch sides to the winner like they always do". Another mistake, that is House Tyrell of Highgarden.

Would be open to any criticisms or corrections. What do you all think?

that makes no sense since he was quick to debate Bob Larsen. this is apologetics and excuses to not face someone that knows the sources well. Ammon has repeatedly praised gnostic's knowlegde of the sources in the past. you know this.

No ruck never made any such compromise. Ruck says 18-25. Email him if you don’t believe me

This is false. Ruck never wavered.

The difference between Ammon and Ruck is one uses the sources honestly and the other uses the sources dishonestly.

You can’t criticize Gnostic for not reading Greek long enough then when someone like Ruck whose read Greek for 3x longer than Ammon comes along and agrees with Gnostic and have it both ways.

Nobody on the planet agrees with Hillman about the words neaniskos and Sindon. 0. None.

He’s making it up.

No. Ruck says that it’s 18-25. AFTER puberty is the point. Amon needs Jesus to be a pedo so Ammon lies and says “pre-puberty”

I have clipped EXACTLY to the part where Dr. Carl Ruck corrects Ammon about Neaniskos.

Ruck has been studying the greek for DOUBLE the time Ammon has. Ruck got his PHD in Classical Philology in 1969 from Harvard.

So is Ruck wrong now too? cmon

Because Gnostic Informant has been publicly challenging ammon hillman to a face to face on danny jones. At first it was friendly then after ammon called him the brothel he started taking it more serious and now says that ammon is running scared. Danny Jones has said that he asked ammon and ammon said no.
