in the OT. But that's a whole different topic all together so.....
Well, yes, the NT was added to the OT. The OT were a bunch of Hebraic texts, including the Torah, together called the Tanakh. Early Christians
rearranged these books to suit their messianic needs. Whether this was done to distract or because these guys really thought this dude named Jesus
was up and about is up to debate. I tend to believe that it was the latter at first, and then it became political very quickly. And that
"distraction from the truth" only incidentally factors in to it.

Uh. That's. That's terrible math and data. First, if I say "THERE'S A BLUE MARTIAN OVER THERE!" and no one else says that there's not, that doesn't
mean that there's a Blue Martian there. It means that they dont' see the blue martian (or are ignoring me). Second, The Sumerians did not
conclusively say that Nibiru exists; they have myths and texts and junk which can be interpreted as saying Nibiru exists.
No, but it was my point that you can not automatically jump to the zero side, of which there is no proof, when on the one side, at least there are
tales and fables. But, aren't many biblical stories based on myths,texts and junk? Gilgamesh is pretty applicable in this situation....
Comet Elenin ... ELE extinction Level Event, NIN from epic of gilgamesh
Okay, I guess that makes sense. But think about it this way: If Nibiru was as formative an influence as it's supposed to be, why didn't they visit
any of the other civs/cultures around at the time? No one in Meso-America ran into the Annunaki? How about the Far-East? The numbers actually lend
more credence to doubting its existence outside of myth cycles.
And, pal, linguistics do not work that way. First off, "Nin" is not straight out of the Epic. It's a Sumerian word meaning "lady" and two characters
have Nin in their names. Elenin is allegedly the last name of a guy who discovered the comet. If he's real, which we assume he is, then the idea
that his family name, passed down for an unknown number of generations, would happen to coincide with an acronym in English and a word that means
"lady" in ancient Sumerian, is at levels of absurdity given precedent only by famed hacks LaHaye and Jenkins.
Even if it was true -- what does that mean? Lady of the Extinction Level Event? You could go Whore of Babylon -- but then you'd have to say ELE =
Babylon, which is just confusing, and Lady = Whore, which is only not a stretch prophecy-wise. And if he's
not real, the name could have been
invented to indicate what you say, but that leads to two much more important questions: was the comet invented? If not, who discovered it for
real?
Though if he and it were invented, I would think Nine Inch Nails would be more likely, considering that the first three letters are an acronym
themselves. Ha, hey, you suppose NIN has any concept albums about the apocalypse coming out?

Well if we go with hypothesis that Nibiru is Elenin then it would be quite visible if it were a dwarf planet. At least if its composition is like
Pluto.
And if we go with the hypothesis that Nibiru is a flying monkey that breathes space, then it would be quite invisible. What exactly is your point?
If it wasn't clear, mine is that there are a lot of explanations for what, precisely, Nibiru would be.

Read your BIBLE.
Although the word wormwood appears several times in the Old Testament, translated from the Hebrew term לענה (la'anah), e.g., Deuteronomy 29:18
and Jeremiah 9:15, its only clear reference as a named entity occurs in the New Testament, in the Book of Revelation: "And the third angel sounded,
and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;
And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made
bitter." (Revelation 8:10, 11 - KJB).
en.wikipedia.org...(star)
Why do you think the name matters? Wormwood is the name the bible gives to it. If we're to believe these stories, Nibiru is the name the Sumerians
gave to it. Nemesis and Elenin may be names modern folk have given to it. Shouting about its proper name changes nothing and convinces no one of
anything.

Actually, they don't really. Most of the variances are fairly small; small enough that even a moderately sized planet isn't required to describe
them. Large enough that there's something we're not accounting for, though.
