lab@qubix.UUCP (Q-Bick) (11/17/84)
The game's over, Yiri, and you have lost. Wingate, Gillette and I have
asked DIRECT questions of you that you have NOT answered in any of your
articles. You have made statements and then chickened out under cross-
examination. You continue to be evasive so I can only conclude that your
points have no substantiation.
The issues are not peripheral, as Yiri claims. They are central.
Gillette has presented evidence that Parkes, et al. do not support Yiri's
claims. Wingate has challenged Yiri directly on the Interpreter's
Dictionary. And I have challenged him in at least two areas:
Yiri has called Hebrew Christians apostate imbeciles, knowing nothing of
either Christianity or Judaism.
I asked for credentials which Yiri would consider acceptable to qualify
one as correctly understanding either Judaism or Christianity.
Yiri has not produced any, knowing there are indeed Hebrew Christians
with good understanding of both.
Yiri has claimed that the Greek New Testament is a "Gentile redaction"
of N'tzarim writings.
I asked for the N'tzarim writings, so that we can see if his challenges
are true, and to provide an agreed source text for study.
Yiri won't produce them. That way, anything I base on the Greek New
Testament, he can shiftily reply "it's a Christian redaction."
Yiri's evasive ploys indicate his case is dead.

You can't settle the issue until you've settled how to settle the issue.
