And I never claimed she was either. Nice try though. Too bad your reading comprehension precludes you from any debate. Go sit down in the corner and put the dunce cap back on.
You used her website as proof for your argument. Thus saying she is an authority.

Ok. I reread the article you linked. Who are these conservative historians that are claiming that Tacitus is not reliable?

Does she need to be an authority to recount what other historians are saying?

You are right. No historians have ever debated the passage and it is considered rock solid.

/eyeroll

How about trying to look something up yourself instead of demanding I spoon feed you everything? You never answer my questions so why should I answer yours?

That's not what I asked. I asked who the conservative historians she quoted were. I've answered plenty of your questions. Maybe they weren't the answers you were looking for, but I have answered at least most of them.

And I said I was done spoon feeding you answers that you can easily google yourself.

"but I have answered at least most of them."

I will refer you back to this post which you still have not responded to:
http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...postcount=1781

Also, show me a post where you actually answered a question of mine. You are going to be digging a long time to find it.

You are on a slippery slope making a claim of extraordinary size. Glenzig doesn't have to produce any evidence, the burden of proof is on you.

A small minority of historians doubt Tacitus, that hardly serves as proof.

Junk DNA is a term that was used by scientists who were content with ascribing uselessness to a large portion of the code found in DNA. Why is this significant? Well as Dembski put it:"Implicit in this term is the view that because the genome of an organism has been cobbled together through a long, undirected evolutionary process, the genome is a patchwork of which only limited portions are essential to the organism. Thus on an evolutionary view we expect a lot of useless DNA."
Can't be a lot more self explanatory than that.
As to your comment on mutations, what am I supposed to answer? You used terms that clearly indicated an intelligent mind acting on natural selection and I called you out on it.

Slippery slope? I asked Glenzig to simply give me the same respect I have given him. I have answered hundreds of his questions. He has answered maybe 2 of mine. Instead, he ignores the questions I ask while throwing three more at me. This has nothing to do with the burden of proof. It has everything to do with him refusing to debate properly or answer a simple question.

"A small minority of historians doubt Tacitus, that hardly serves as proof."

Show me the numbers. How many agree? How many disagree? Minority and majority arent very accurate terms...for all you know it means 49% and 51%. Let's say 20% debate the validity. Is that a large enough number to claim there is an active debate? What about 21%? 22%? What is the magic number that I need to surpass the "historians debate" threshold?
