This person has been proved wrong over and over, but won't let it go. So sad.
Thats because you are not an impartial arbitrator but only an advocate.
I also debated with Allan. He claimed to have graduated from MIT. I quizzed him about something that every student there must know and he didn’t know I was talking about. I still believe him though.
His most interesting essay was on the ransom and I respected that essay but the WT already commented on the point he was challenging many years before he published his essay so it wasn’t an original research but It was an exceptional point he made .Even what scholar argues is only what wt has already commented on. WT is right on the money in Bible interpretation imho. One of the only exceptional points made on this Forum was made by cofty having to do with the distinction between the blood of an animal slaughtered for food and blood coming from a creature who was not slaughtered. Food for thought. However, WT had already commented on that distinction many years before but nevertheless cofty argument interesting.

Daniel 2, it is obvious that the kingdom would be established “in the days of those kings” (Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece,
It is not obvious Van. You've already made up your mind. You are an advocate of your beliefs. You are wrong because the kingdom would strike at the feet so the language in the days of those kings is poetic since God’s kingdom did nor strike the kingdoms you mentioned nor could ot be established until Jesus remained faithful to the death. The book of Daniel is about the future and about the time of the end. What happened to those Empires at that time is insignificant and part of a bigger picture, the statue representing all human rule replaced by the Messianic kingdom. That is the only sequitur conclusion.

Zero empirical evidence
A Universe From Nothing -Krauss
Apocalypse Delayed -Olof
At least Bible faith is based on proof but these books require faith only.

- The moon’s made out of green cheese would be just as nonsensical but say it often enough and someone will believe it.
  Hi Oz,
  Where’s the beef?

No, it is because WT scholars are too smart.
It is because of God’s Holy spirit.

There isn't a single scholar that would suggest 607 as the date of Jerusalem's destruction.
They are wrong in their interpretation of archeology. But let’s assume the circa 586 interpretation (because that is all it is a belief) that would still put us a few years after1914 ( circa 1935) which is very close to 1914 as the end of the Gentile Times. But compared to the events of 1914 the first world war that seems to fulfill Bible prophecy so one would have to go back and re evaluate 586 premise. Based on God’s word using Bible chronology the year is 607. There is zero empirical evidence that 586 is the destruction of Jerusalem -only an interpretation of the Stele which Scholar refuted in previous thread years ago. 1914 has not been debunked.

Besides, as I see it, Jesus was enthroned in the first century CE.
That is not true.Compare hebrews 10:12 with Psalms 110:1.
Also, 1914 is not a made up date. It is based on Bible interpretation of the 7X. Cant be debunked. And Babylon fell in 539-70 is circa 607. 1914 is a solid date. I think that Oct 1914 is the end of the Gentile Times. Everything is arguable and that is why Jesus’s proof of being the Messiah was rejected in the 1 century . But not without consequences.

WT claims that Satan was thrown out of heaven in October 1914
Don’t think WT now teaches that. “circa 1914” not 1914 as discussed in another thread,
