Is there a God? If so, what is She like?

No one looks like Dustin Hoffman.

Koerstler was not a crackpot BTW.
The point is that Jews show a massive genetically variation, but nonetheless do not look much like anyone from ancient Israel. Their claim the the land fails on several counts; not less that it is basically a British imperialist invention.
Well it's there, and it's not going anywhere. Modern Israeli's aren't responsible for past British imperialistic arsehole-ness.

And the lie of the photo.
I've stood a foot away from Dustin Hoffman, and I can tell you NO one looks like him. His head is bizarrely large, despite him being very short.
Although you can bring a photo together with Cohen the comparison is false.

Wrong. Go back to page 1. 8) You simply won't find more reputable sources.
John Hopkins is one American source. And we all know how sexually uptight Americans are in comparison to the rest of the world. So you can put all the weight you want on this. One American study speaks to... one American study.
Skewing statistics and outright lying for their own disingenuous ends is a typical kristian trick. They do it with everything they want to poke their meddling snouts into. They disguise their need for control and power with faux 'concern' for those they claim to want to 'help'. They really can't see how transparent they are. IC would never just come out and say honestly that he thinks you are scum. Oh no, he comes armed with 'worrying statistics' on supposed suicide rates.

Those with 'selective bias' on this topic don't generally care about muslim countries. In fact, as a rule they delight in their destruction and misery. I'm just trying to be objective.

There you go again. And no one could deny they look alike. They are a similar type. I'm not saying that are identical twins! Talk about 'selective bias'. :)

"You have an opinion on me"

Absolutely, I do.

With all your nihil-lovin' (no one should have to be born) hooey I knew you were a bit touched in the noggin, but now -- knowin' you lopped off, or wanna lop off your willie -- I see you as right-off-the-cliff-edge crazy.

Nuthin' wrong with being a nut...whole whack wrong with nuts demanding non-nuts cater to craziness.

Go, live your life...I got no interest in you or it...but: come to me with a five o'clock shadow, adam's apple, deep voice, wearing your willie (encased in lucite) as a pendant, claiming you're a woman, and you're a friggin' liar or a friggin' loon.

Questions...

Joe, a white man, sez he's black...he darkens his skin, flattens his nose, crimps his hair...is he black or deluded?

Stan, a black man, sez he's white...he bleaches his skin, opts for a european nose, straightens his hair...is he white or deluded?

People look similar. When they are also Jews, you make a bias comparison, and ignore the millions of other Jews that do not look like Cohen.
Similarity is more than what is in a face. Hoffman is unique, no one I've ever met comes near to those proportions. He came up to my shoulder, but his head is the head of a man who ought to be 6'5" - Hoffman's head would fit nicely on Richard Osman's body.
It was nearly about 37 years ago, but I never forgot, he was with Gene Hackman at the Nation in London, sitting in the next row.

Unless you've also stood a foot away from Leonard Cohen I can't see why you think you're in a position to reject the photographic comparison. Do you know from direct personal experience that Leonard Cohen's head was not also disproportionate to his body? Besides, it's not the head size that is at issue, it's more to do with the topographical aspect of the front of it.

There's no bias. I have always thought they look remarkably alike. I don't see how anyone could deny it.
You posted a photo of Alan Rickman. I'm pretty sure he's not jewish.

I'm not denying that all jews look the same to you. All I am trying to say is that all are different. And Hoffman is a bad example. But I know what you mean.
You could also put Bill Stiller against those pictures too.
OR Tom Cruise who is NOT Jewish.

It's amazing how many people call themselves Christians yet behave very un Christ like. I may not hold with Christ as the son of God but I don't have a problem with "Christian Values" but Christ wasn't a smug bastard who enjoyed patronising and trying to belittle people so why do these characters feel entitled to associate themselves with him? If it turns out that we do all have to face a judgement day I think a lot of these so called Christians will have more to feel nervous about most of us atheists.
When people claim to have extraordinary knowledge or understanding then the second thing I do is analyse the nature of their interactions, seeking signs of extraordinary qualities associated with "higher states of consciousness", such as goodwill, patience, gentleness, humour, balance, fair play in debate, curiosity and a strong desire to learn, ungrudging acknowledgement of correct points by opponents, and the humility to admit errors.

No more needs to be said :)

I wouldn't put Tom Cruise in there. Nor Stiller, although you will probably find sites that show comparable photos. And 'denying' is the wrong word to use, unless you are saying I really think they all look the same. I think it's pretty obvious they don't, but I do think 'jesus' would have been closer to a Hoffman than the man in your photo.

If this is a tactful way of saying that Immanuel is an out and out scumbag then you are right, he is. If that is not what you are saying then I can't help but wonder why.
