I have already answered it three times, why stop wasting my time with nothingness?
Is your ability with Greek and Urdu "on the same basis" as your ability with English?
Is your "basic understanding: of English the same as your "basic understanding" of Urdu for example?
Could you read and understand a Bible in Urdu and Greek the same as you would understand it in English?

When you were arguing a point of "spiritual content" you claimed to understand Urdu and Greek. Your evasions since making this claim cast doubt upon their truthfulness. Therefore, your point about "spiritual content", based as it was on your claim that your understanding of Urdu and Greek is "on the same basis as English", is questionable, to say the least.
understanding of Biblical Greek, that i can read and write it, you will now explain why
that is evasive and you will also explain why your posts have no spiritual content?

blunt, but well, i hope you wont be offended.
Originally posted by robbie carrobieIt was you, not me, who claimed you could understand Greek "the same basis" as you understand English.
you have attempted to state that the same basis means the same level of understanding,
your assumption, not mine, I have already stated that i have a basic understanding of Biblical
Greek that I can read and write it, what is it about that statement that you do not
understand?
Could you win a contract to translate bible [or similar] texts from Greek into English, and from English into Greek?

How long were you in Pakistan? How many years did you study Urdu? How many years have you spoken it/written it?
Your claim does not add up.

You seem to be back peddling.

yes i can read and write it, now will you stop pestering me.
After how many years of formal study and after how many years of living in Pakistan?
Your claims about your linguistic abilities with regard to the bible do not add up.

English, again, no spiritual content. You seem to be incapable of producing anything
with spiritual content, why is that?
Originally posted by robbie carrobieYou made comments on "spiritual content" based on specific claims you made about your language abilities. But these claims clearly seem to be untrue, judging by your demeanour since being pressed on the matter.
yawn, so tedious, so no spiritual content, general that a way spanky. ---->
Originally posted by robbie carrobieDo your read and write Greek well enough to provide your own translated version of the bible, for instance?
yes i can read and write it, that appears to me to be the same basis as i read and write
English...?
By the same reckoning, could you produce your own version of the bible in Urdu?
I am just trying to assess the credibility of your pronouncements on "spiritual matters" specifically in the context of your claimed linguistic skills.
Originally posted by FMFNo spiritual content, if i asked you nicely FMF, will you please simply ignore my posts, I

derive no joy nor satisfaction from interaction with you, to be honest, you have taught
me nothing, and i have in five years I have learned nothing from interacting with you
other than I am best to stay away from you to be honest, If you do not believe me,
then that is fine, if you think made it up, then that is also fine, i like to discuss spiritual
things, your post rarely have such content, therefore to save me the time of having to
answer your posts on basically nothingness, repeatedly I would ask you simply to
ignore my posts.
