All right, let’s start again with no more assumptions about what you think I might possibly mean.
Literally, you said there was evidence of Jesus’s existence.
I literally only asked for one example of said evidence.
Your claim.
I am not asking for books or videos, but the mere mention of ONE piece of the evidence you claimed existed. Not opinions, not historians saying they believe it, but actual evidence. That is all.
Jesus Christ, I never asked you to transcribe a video, what are you even on about? YOU suggested that. Stop ascribing your batshit requests to me.
I asked for ONE thing:
Give me one piece of evidence to support your claim.
That’s all.
It’s simple, and something a child could understand.
For instance, we know Australopithecus existed because we’ve found bones.
It’s that simple.
‘We know Jesus existed because we found his grave.’
Or
‘We know Jesus existed because…’ [insert the evidence].
How is this hard?
e: it’s become very clear you can’t do this one simple thing, yet you can’t stop talking, trying to move on to the next thing as though you already have, but nobody reading this is dumb enough for that to work. That’s what makes you a troll – your inability to address the point as you try to distract from the actual topic. I’ll not move on from the original point until you address it, so this tactic will not work.
They look like they’re drowning. I feel I need to throw them life preservers. This is stressful, because I’m not sure they can catch them, what with the hooves.
Okay, but you started it. I only asked you to back up your claims.
Maybe you’re not ready for the internet.
I’d recommend you stay out of controversial communities if you can’t make claims, not back them up, then get defensive.
Cheers.
e: ‘you have the evidence’ ROFL WHAT EVIDENCE?!? I’m still waiting for your evidence.
Please, please give me evidence. I’m literally begging you. Evidence is not bible stories. Evidence is archaeological artefacts or bones or literally anything physical that is not some guy’s stories. This is not hard. I’m only asking for ONE example. I’m not asking you to repeatedly watch something and give me quotes. That should not be necessary if it’s verifiable. Artefact and location is enough, and it needn’t even be spelt correctly.
(Isn’t it ironic to you that you wanted to ask me to read an entire book for your point, but you’re now assuming I want you to watch a gasp half hour video, though I never asked that? How can you think these things unironically? Just give me one piece of hard evidence, that’s all I’ve ever asked.).
E2: I know, I’m feeding a troll. I’m bored. I’m done now.
Can you give me ONE piece of tangible evidence, or can you only write a strawman dissertation?
I don’t care to watch a video or read a book because you can’t plainly state your point.
How about you plainly state your point?
E: not more quotes from books, but contemporaneous records and monuments, archaeological sites, graves of these people – you’ve given me stories. We have a metric shitload of stories and myths. None of that is proof.
Okay, that was a whole lot of someone else’s words to say the same thing you said.
I am not reading a whole book to investigate your assertion:
I asked for evidence.
You seem to have read a book that presents it. So give us the actual evidence that book presents. This should be easy, because you’re using that book as said evidence.
Please give us a bulleted list of pieces of evidence from that book that back up your claim.
e: Or just one. Something concrete, like an archaeological artefact.
These numbers are not referring to temporarily vacant homes that are in between buyers, but longer term vacancies, often held by investment firms. From the article:
Vacant homes and buildings often succumb to the elements and deteriorate due to leaks, damage and general lack of maintenance before ever finding a buyer willing to pay their inflated prices. An abundance of vacant homes on the market are also attributed to rising rent and home prices.
These homes can sit abandoned for years, causing neighbourhood blight and increased crime, in addition to removing opportunities from people who need housing.
Yes, it’s an uncaring capitalist thing, and no, it’s not a NIMBY thing – quite the opposite. The neighbourhoods with these homes would be far better off with residents than simply letting these homes rot .
There are solutions, and most vacant houses are in major cities, which is also where many homeless people already are.
Detroit, for example, has large numbers of homeless people and also large numbers of these houses. Same with New York, large cities in California, etc.
There are ways to solve this, but there’s no way these large corporations will participate in a solution out of the goodness of their heart.
Kinda… There’s not so much need to build, though, as there are currently 28 vacant homes for every one person experiencing homelessness in the U.S., many of which are owned not by individuals but by large corporations. The same corps that took advantage of the housing market collapses over the last several decades.
Large corporations are sitting on ridiculous numbers of vacant homes rather than make them affordable for people who need them. Fixing that would help.
I’m trying to get my 89 year old dad to set aside the tapes of the first games I programmed on our Commodore 64 in like 1983 when he moves this year. I really want them.
I’ve been doing corsetry for decades, so no, I just liked history and sewing, and that’s how they came together.
It’s interesting you’d say that, though – after some time in a physiotherapy group, my therapist asked me if I’d be willing to design some back braces. Apparently the construction is similar.
But I’m a designer, not an engineer (and certainly not a healthcare person) so I declined.
I can’t stop crying about this redcap’s 23% loss in profits. Never mind that I’m not sure whether my Social Security disability will continue at all (it’s been delayed the last couple of months, to the point I can’t afford ramen right now) or that they’re building interment camps. Or that my doctors say Medicare won’t allow my prescriptions anymore unless I can travel the hour and a half to physically show up at their office, which I cannot do since I’m 100% homebound and Medicare has suddenly decided they’re not allowing remote visits anymore, so I’ll have to stop taking lifesaving meds I’ve been on for 20 years.
But yes, this guy’s 23% profit loss will keep me up tonight.
All right, let’s start again with no more assumptions about what you think I might possibly mean.
