And then I asked him why Jesus could not simply have transferred energy from one place to the other?
I never heard form him again... Geuss I'm just too stupid for some folks who know a lot of 'stuff' (Well, they don't know it, but they tentatively assume it!) They do invest a lot of energy, so maybe I should not pull the rug out from under them. They're kind of sensitive...
Well, this is offtopic but your conclusion does not necessarily derive. Are you saying that Jesus sent his disciples out to bring back take out?
Are you saying that he "teleported" in the take out, as in "beam me up Scotty?"
You didn't pull the rug out from under him. You probably shut his mouth as in, "there is no point, this guy will just manufacture miracle upon miracle as science means nothing to him, nor does logic."
Assuming he felt something like that I understand and empathize with him as we have a number of posters who never tire of doing the same thing you do, which is engage in science fiction and claim it's a scientific explanation.
