wt claims that satan was thrown out of heaven in october 1914 precipitating ww!
and the end times.
a small problem with that is ww1 started on july 28th 1914 whilst satan was still in heaven picking his nose.. how did we not see this and waste years of precious life?
‘scholar’:
So you produce cogent facts that prove a 2nd-century composition.
You already did:
reference applicable to the Seleucid Period is confined to a few verses in Dan. 11:5-19Of course, the entire remainder of chapter 11 also refers to the Seleucid period, along with other references in chapters 2, 7 & 8, but I have low expectations about the quality of your responses anyway.

‘scholar’:
In the case of Daniel such a commandment 'to seal up' proves it was a book of prophecy written at the time the dreams and visions were received which are dated historically.
‘Sealing the book’ could be a literary device ‘explaining’ why the book ‘appeared’ only during the 2nd century BCE. But Daniel 10:27 refers to a different book to the one at Daniel 12:1.

‘scholar’:
The Roman Empire came into existence long after Daniel was written with the advent of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE which was foretold and described in Dan.11:20 thus proving that Rome existed long after Daniel's time of writing in the 6th century BC.
Wrong as usual. Daniel 11:20 alludes to Heliodorus being sent (around 178 BCE) by Seleucus IV Philopator (ruled 187 - 175 BCE) to demand a tax from Jerusalem’s temple treasures, hence an exactor. It has nothing at all to do with a census (that the author of Luke places in the wrong year) that would not require people returning to the place of their birth anyway.

Doofus:
The book itself contains six chronological data that prove its 6th-century composition
The movie Alien contains chronological data ‘proving’ the movie was made hundreds of years in the future 🤦♂️ Must be a prophecy 😂
Can you really be so stupid to genuinely not understand that someone can very easily refer to events in the past at some later time?

I couldn’t be bothered dealing with all of the latest load of drivel offered by ‘scholar’. The ‘quality’ of his ‘reasoning’ is summed up well in this paragraph though:
Further, there is nothing in Daniel that provides any historical support for a later composition for the only reference applicable to the Seleucid Period is confined to a few verses in Dan. 11:5-19.which of course confirms that the book is prophecy as it contains a reference to a future period along with other fulfillments.Basically, this boils down to: ‘nothing in Daniel indicates that it was written during the Seleucid period apart from the part that very obviously does, so my best explanation is that the book is magical.’
The rest of his responses are of similar ‘quality’. Just go away, ‘scholar’.
so we have been "green" blowing up all our coal power plants now they are saying we are like north korea...expect regular power blackouts.

I’m not here to jump through hoops like a performing seal. You suggested that other plants have since closed beyond those scheduled. If you don’t care enough to support your own claim, I don’t see why I should. See also ‘burden of proof’.
My position (passing interest) isn’t contingent on any exact number of operating plants and if there were, for example, 19 plants operating rather than 20, it wouldn’t be the ‘gotcha’ that you seem to imagine.

Almost all of the coal power stations in Australia that have been decommissioned in recent years were commissioned over 40 years ago and the few exceptions were generally low output. So the suggestion that ‘greenies forced them to close’ is questionable, as is the suggestion that problems now (due to high gas prices and various maintenance/disaster recovery issues) would necessarily have been averted ‘if only the old coal power stations were kept’, despite inefficiency and on-going maintenance requirements due to their age. But rather than relying on coal, Australia really should be taking advantage of nuclear power anyway.

Rivergang:
I never claimed that they had all closed - talk about the "Straw Man" argument!.
The subject of this thread makes the claim. I responded to that claim. You said I was wrong, and you were wrong about that. And you still haven’t provided any evidence that any others were since decommissioned.
Now, if you’re talking about plants that aren’t generating for other reasons (such as gas power plants due to rising gas prices, which is actually at the core of the current issues), that would not be relevant to what I said.

So I’m sure you’ll be along shortly with a verifiable list showing they’ve all since closed 😂
The list includes scheduled closures. If all (or a significant number of) the others had actually also closed since, I’m pretty sure you would have mentioned those rather than just claiming ‘the old list is irrelevant’.

Rivergang:
That list of coal-fired Australian power stations was the case when published - but that was six years ago
That sounds like it’s meant to prove some kind of point. But all it shows is that there are more than 20 coal power plants still operating in Australia (taking into account the two that were since decommissioned according to the schedule that was in place during the tenure of the previous government), confirming that the alarmist topic heading is indeed false. It appears that one scheduled for decommissioning this year has sparked the ‘outrage’ that they’re ‘all’ being closed. 🤦♂️
Even then, nine coal-fired plants had already been de-commissioned in the six year period prior to that,
So… coal plants have actually closed at a significantly lower rate in the last 6 years than in the 6 years prior.
