I'll guess you are a Christian nutjob. We normal people have science which is happy to accept new research as it becomes available. You, on the other hand, are relegated to reading obscure meanings into ancient texts, none of which are the originals; the only "copies" of the Jewish Bible were made several hundred years after Jesus popped his cogs. Even the story of Noah and the Flood were "gifted" from the Epic of Gilgamesh, which was an ancient Sumerian myth.
You are clueless. There are many things you have wrong, but let me pick on just one: "the only "copies" of the Jewish Bible were made several hundred years after Jesus popped his cogs". Guess you never heard of the Dead Sea Scrolls?
Pardon me, let me mention another one: Yes, Greek was at one time written without word breaks or punctuation--as Chinese and several other languages still are today. So what? I do not know of a single place in the Greek New Testament (or for that matter in other Greek writings before or after that) where there is any ambiguity in the word boundary division, much less one that makes a difference in meaning.
I could disagree with virtually everything else (except maybe roasting a chicken with its head on). But I'll leave it at that.
