use of OS by ancient Aramaic-speaking Christians
#11
Shlama Akhi Yuri,

Let me get this straight: you're trying to get me to change my mind about Palimpsets because there are Greek Palimpsets? Did I understand your reasoning correctly?

Besides, are we comparing apples and oranges. You do realize, don't you, that although Old Scratch is a Palimpset....it's the text that is erased, right?

Finally, Akhi, you can stick 10 "scholars" in the same room with the same evidence and come up with 9 different opinions on that evidence. Again, I don't care what scholars "think" - I want to know what the evidence is.

It's of no use to me or you for Steven Ring to have listed references. Why doesn't he (or, you) actually list examples, like we do here on this forum?

Is that the limit to your scientific methodology - "lookie, this scholar says this." Okay, fine and dandy. Let's discuss specifics, shall we?

You were the one who talked about "science" and "objectivity" - were you not?

If you were a chemist or physicist and you wanted to publish an article in a peer-reviewed journal, I would sincerely hope that you would write about more specifics than "he said this, and the other one said that."

Specifics, Yuri. And don't think for one minute that any of us here believe that you have no personal stake in this. Aside from dwelling incessantly on this topic while here on the forum, you have written plenty about the subject - and all this is very visible to anyone interested on the web.

You have a big personal stake in this, as you don't want an official text of any church to be authoritative. It would generate unnecessary feelings of conflict inside you. Besides, what would anyone need you for, then?

The likes of Trimm need to "explore" and "find" and "discover", and be praised for it, of course. There's no glory in settling with accepted texts and going from there. You guys want the attention.

There's no way us darkies would have got it right and you wouldn't have known about it. It's just too much for you to accept. We needed you to come around in the 21st-century and tell us what we did wrong.

Sprare me the "I have no personal stake in this" - and come up with something more substantial than "well, he said so!" Then we can practice that "science" you so earnestly yearned for earlier. Like we did for the "eastern variants."
