your methodology sucks!
Most of your post is irrelevant it is irrational to accept certain parts of the Bible and not others. You have no rational for doing so if you dont accept any of the bible as the word of God then that is different but you still have the problem of the Gospel writers and the apostles accepting Paul as a genuin apostle qualified to speak the gospel. Their imprimateur negates you.

Q: What did Jesus say about the poor?
A1: Jesus said, "Sell what you have and give to the poor."
Another strip quote one of your favorite tactics. This passage is about the rich man's sin as sucessfully demonstrated previously not a teaching about how all believers handle the poor.

I'll say it a third time: I am not ignoring Mark. I am trying to correct your misinterpretation of Mark.
You never did. I sucessfully showed that Mark made it clear that it is those who trust in riches who cannot enter heaven not the rich in general and that Mark illuminates the other two passages. You never corrected anything.

Since you're new, I'm conceding the "eyewitness" testimony - but don't expect to be handled with kid gloves in every discussion here.
Thanks for your concern but I had a scholarship for the #1 Ranked intercollegiate debate team. Actually I have enjoyed our banter and have actually gone easy on you so no need for kid gloves or worry about the fact I am new. I will trust the audience if any, who reads these posts to judge who came out on top. I have forgotten more about argumentation and logic and logical fallacies than most here will ever know. Yes I'm crowing again.
I'm tired enough for tonite thanks for the engagement.

You're not paying attention. I said we're not necessarily "accepting" any of the Bible. We're discussing what it says, not its truth value.
... you still have the problem of the Gospel writers and the apostles accepting Paul as a genuin apostle qualified to speak the gospel. Their imprimateur negates you.
Not at all. Their imprimatur has no more inherent value than that of Peter Cottontail.
This passage is about the rich man's sin as sucessfully demonstrated previously not a teaching about how all believers handle the poor.
You didn't "successfully" demonstrate that at all. The passage clearly talks about what must be done (sell and give) - not why it must be done.
I sucessfully showed that Mark made it clear that it is those who trust in riches who cannot enter heaven not the rich in general....
Once again, you overestimate your own success. It's not enough to convince yourself of what you already believe. I have polled the choir and even they don't swallow your sermon.
Thanks for your concern but I had a scholarship for the #1 Ranked intercollegiate debate team.
Congratulations.
I debate based on your demeanor and what I perceive as your ability - not on your resume.
I will trust the audience if any, who reads these posts to judge who came out on top.
My fan club is out there.

That's okay. I have a short memory too.
... thanks for the engagement.
I like you too, but I'd hardly say we're "engaged".
