You have yet to post a real "issue". All you post are your nincompoop

But since I don't promote adultery as a "woman's right", that is
irrelevant. I merely observed that it is not against the law in the
state of California despite the lie on your website that says it is
based on a 90 year old law that has been removed from the books.

Sorry, but saying that it is possible for you to rob a bank, does not
mean that I am an accomplice if in fact you DO rob a bank.

Certainly. So why do you promote activities that are written in the
law books as "hate crimes"? Does this not make YOU an accomplice to
those hate crimes?

I am certain that no fewer people believe me than believed me before I

Character assassination? How can I assassinate a character such as

I don't see that it needs to be clarified. You apparently think so.
I think it is good that adultery laws are not prosecuted because the
only way that they could be prosecuted would be if Big Brother was
snooping in our bedrooms to find out who had sex with whom and when.
Since adultery requires an actual act of sex, ONLY bedroom snooping or
paternity testing of any offspring that resulted would prove adultery.

I don't feel strongly at all on adultery. I don't much CARE about
adultery.

Hilarious. Note that it was posted by someone who says he is a Jew.
Why would YOU believe a site posted by someone who is a Jew?
Meanwhile, he says that the Milesians used the name Eber. Well, yes
they did. But what did the name mean IN CELTIC?

How could they be the Lost Tribes of Israel if they've been in Ireland
since the time of Solomon, 300 years BEFORE the Lost Tribes of Israel
became "lost"?

Let us first hear the Hebrew etymology of "Ollam Fodla", and then
explain how their 21st king ruled in Ireland before the Babylonian
captivity.
But if you think that is not enough:

Thus, the ancient Milesians came from lived in Scythia which is a
thousand miles from the Holy Land. Their ancestor was good buddies
with Moses, had a descendant who married the daughter of an Egyptian
Pharoah (oops, that is a NO NO. He married a non-Israelite, so by
Deuteronomy and your nincompoop logic, even if he was an Israelite,
all of his descendants were "bastards".
And the Eber of the Milesians was the grandson of the Egyptian
Pharoah. Therefore he could NOT have been the Eber of the Bible,
unless Shem, who was the other Eber's great-grandfather, was the
father of an Egyptian Pharoah (ignoring the fact that only one
generation before, a flood had wiped out all the world's peoples,
presumably including any Egyptians. But we're talking nincompoop
logic here.)

Given that Ireland is Catholic, and most of the people speak English
rather than Irish (approximately 2% of the Irish people speak Irish as
their native language), why would the list of popular Irish names in
1999 say anything about ancient Celts?

You've shown that many Irish Catholics choose Biblical names. Now
show us that Celtic has any significant similarity to ancient Hebrew
(and don't bother with the silly things mentioned on that web page
above. Half the world's languages match some of the patterns he
mentions.
Oh, here is a more thorough rendition of the supposed links between
the Bible and Celtic folklore.
http://www.ucc.ie/celt/published/T100054/text026.html
It says that the language of the Scythians was Gortighern, which was
the pre-Babel language, and that the Irish ancestors had left Babel
before the tower was built and therefore theirs is the original tongue
of mankind.
If you want an entertaining mythology, read the whole silly book:

Now, nincompoop, let us see some REAL evidence for your theory.
