We're not engaged in an argument, you are just insisting you're right without any evidence and you are unwilling to interact with any demonstrative purpose.
You have refused to address my point which I clearly made because you cannot.
Actually, I have challenged your point and you have not responded to my challenge; rather, you have declared victory before any points have been scored.
I'm sorry you're unable to understand my responses ... but I have directly answered your objections.
Let me try one more time, but I assure you I tire of your obfuscation:
There is nothing in the text of Joshua that demands an allegorical interpretation ... you are imposing your allegorical insistence exactly because you cannot accept what the text clearly says.
Something about having ears to hear applies in this case.
If you don't want to interact with my points then so be it ... I will not waste my time with someone whose desire is to win the debate by the default of silence rather than pose any cogent argument to advance his conjecture.
Now, are you going to advance the ball or what?
Tell me what in the text of Joshua indicates that the author intends allegorical interpretation here?
I asked a simple, clearly phrased question that could have been answered truthfully with as little as one word. Knowing you’d been caught out, you obfuscated the issue with unrelated sidetracks. I won’t take that bait and still wait for you to answer my original question. You won’t though, will you? To do so would require the adult ability to admit youre wrong.
