No, I'm not going to try and prove anything, not at this stage anyway. You haven't asked me why I am feeling bored, or what is wrong with the first of those two words.Originally posted by Benfranklin403:
Mike, If you want to prove your point...
But who was Zeus? You will find the answers in both of my books, Forgotten History and Impossible Theology.Originally posted by rsr:

Can you tell me what you have been reading?</font>[/QUOTE]Originally posted by Mike Gascoigne:

I asked you what you have been reading, that constitutes "research", but you have not answered. I think it's because you have not actually read anything.Originally posted by C4K:
I agree Ben - my research is leading me to beleive...
The list of kings dating back to Adam, that I have referenced from my opening topic, is not in my book, although I have dealt with other aspects of the Irish history. It's new information that I have researched afterwards. If you want to criticise my book, you should start off by reading it.Originally posted by Benfranklin403:
Mike, I note that one of the reviewers of your book had this to say:
"...a picture of our past that is very different than the one taught in most schools." Pat Franklin, Sub-Editor of the Surrey-Hants Star.

If you claim that what you have found is different from conventional history...
Of course you don't know about Magog. I've seen some of your other posts on Impossible Evolutionary Steps and it's obvious you are an evolutionist. At what point does the Bible cease to be fantasy and start becoming real? Was there a flood, and was there a person called Noah who had a grandson called Magog? Was there a dispersion from the tower of Babel? Was there a patriarch called Abraham? Did Moses lead the Israelites out of Egypt? Was there a king called David? Was there someone called Jesus who died on the cross for our sins?Originally posted by Benfranklin403:
I don't know about Magog...
You haven't even followed the link from my opening topic. It displays the genealogy of Maebh Belle Pyles, then you scroll down to the footnotes and you will find Keating.... provide the sources of the documents... So far, you have not done that and I don't think you can.
How much of Keating have you actually read? You need to read the whole of Volume I and about the first half of Volume II. You will find that he refers to a number of other works.Originally posted by Benfranklin403:
Mike, it seems that your earliest reference is from the 1700s by Keating. But how do you know that Keating's information is correct? He could know the past, back to Magog, only by consulting other works. What were those works?
I already showed you how to click the link to get my page, then how to scroll down to find Keating. You have to do the rest for yourself, then you can make your own detailed response. If necessary, you need to move from the "Show Me" state to the "Find it out for yourself" state, wherever it is.I am eagerly waiting for your detailed response. I am from Missouri, the "Show Me" state. So show me.
Yes, it would take a lot of time, much more time than I have got here.Originally posted by Benfranklin403:
It will take you some time to describe the documents and their contents ...
I've got lots of references to other books. My Forgotten History has nine pages of Bibliography, mostly about other histories but some of them are about the history of Ireland.One single reference to a book of unknown quality "won't cut it". Surely you understand that historians will want more proof than simply your words or the words of Keating.
