Jesus is revered as a prophet

I agree with you, but it's a little more than that. They believe there is a "Jesus" that is a prophet, but it is not Jesus of the Bible. They believe Jesus of the Bible is a false prophet, and the antichrist in their end times of events. Christian vs Muslim eschatology are almost polar opposites. The Muslim antichrist comes riding through Jerusalem on something like a donkey (sound familiar?). He will claim that he could do all these miracles and even deceive some. In the end times, the "true Jesus", who they consider a prophet, will come in and tell everyone that they got it wrong. He too will do some miracles to show he's valid but he will direct everyone's attention to the Madhi, who is the true messiah. "Jesus" will correct the misconception and ascribe worship to the Madhi. This is almost the exact opposite of the Revelation account in the Bible. Essentially, swap false prophet with their "Jesus", and the beast with the Madhi. From a Christian perspective, which I am, I've always been curious, "With all the writing in the Bible about the mark of the beast, end times, etc., how could so many be deceived?" Well, if you have a miracle-worker claiming to be Jesus and saying, "it's okay, Christians, you got it wrong. This is the guy you're looking for."


It's been awhile since I read about this so this is from memory and feel free to push back. :cheers:

It has been doing this from the beginning, even fabricating research and attributing it to real people

I was actually coming to post this. ChatGPT can be resourceful but I would be very careful utilizing it for specific reliable information. I noticed this recently as I asked for certain evidenced-based practices on a topic. It provided information that seemed really good on its surface. When I began to check the sources, I couldn't find them. When I asked it for the doi numbers, it said that provided fake sources. It then provided me with "real" sources. When checked, they too were fake. This proceeded for several attempts and I eventually gave up on it. This is the second time it has done it to me. My advice is if you use it, at least try to verify it afterwards.

My main concern was how many medical providers have relied on it to give them up-to-date info, and took it at face value?

That whole fighting nerds crew is legit

Like I said, worth a shot :lol: brutal

Might not show him this thread

:lol: the OT is awesome. These responses won’t help his ego, but I’ll send it to him nevertheless.

To his credit, he’s been out of school for 10+ years

Need to travel back to LC from Covington today. I can be flexible on when I leave. Better to leave this morning or wait til later?

Traveling from Covington back to Lake Charles. Is today (Friday) or tomorrow a better day to do it to avoid traffic? Traveling over here was chaotic

Prison will take care of him.

Honest question: are we sure this is still the case? It’s possible that he’s just going to hang out with other scumbags with no respect for life. This is despicable :angry:

Thanks, didn't see it :cheers:

Topuria is good and I like to watch him fight. The only area we haven't seen him tested in is the deep waters of late round fights, which max is incredible at. Max is a dog and his fights are always great. He's always prepared. I can foresee this being a banger. It's a hard one to pick. I don't see Max getting KO'd though. It'll either be a decision either way or Max by stoppage imo.

As for Whittaker, I can't see Khamzat winning unless it's in the first round. We've seen in his most recent fights where he begins to fade. Knuckles is so good. If it doesn't happen early, I could see this as a 4-1 for Whittaker.

I'm glad it's an early card. The cards lately have been going to nearly 1am

:lol:
