Has support for the McCanns and Goncalo Amaral reached cult status?

[Mr Gray]

Made it sound like fact?  how do you do that then?

 I never heard anyone who has read the book think they were reading about the 'McCanns dunit' They managed to establish it was a thesis based on an enquiry. But, oh well, if you didn't get that then then he should be hang by the neck till he be dead... Or perhaps you should get someone to read it as it should be read- As a Thesis!

Amaral states things as facts
He does not talk about a thesis

Only in supporters heads, other people like myself know it to be a Thesis. Not one I agree with I have to say, but I still see it as it is.

Could you tell us where in his book he uses the word thesis
Have you seen the start of the documentary

[Alfie]

The Book is called "The Truth of the Lie" for god sake!  What does 'the truth' mean in this instance?  It's only a thesis about the truth?

So?
Your point being ?

Truth is simply what one chooses to believe is true.

[Alfie]

A book that purports to tell the truth cannot also be a thesis.

What did the appeal court find on this point?  The book is a theorem, that largely reflects the thinking when Amaral was removed.

He should have picked a more equivocal title then, the unpleasant little man - that's my opinion btw, so no need to ask for a cite.

I don't know what you think the title means, but I found an explanation by a Portuguese person;

Hi I'm Portuguese and the title is Truth of the Lie. This is an old phrase in Portuguese which basically means every lie has some truth and when you find the truth of the lie, you're extracting the truthful part of a deceptive story. That's the best way I can explain it. It makes perfect sense in Portuguese.

You really walked into this one Benice.


Nigel Nessling, devout mccann supporter.

Just for starters.

Claims that Madeleine signifies the second coming of Christ.

Thankyou for the link. 

I am not a Christian but as far as I know Armageddon and the  'second coming' are believed by billions of people worldwide who do not consider themselves to be part of a cult.

The subject of the article is Armageddon and is an interesting observation of modern day  'major events'  in the world which the author relates and connects to the prophecies in the Bible regarding the apocalypse and the 2nd coming.

Madeleine's case can without doubt be described as a 'major event' as it is known about worldwide (and is still being discussed 10 years later) -  and in the opinion of the author is another example of those events which he believes bear out those biblical prophecies.

As I said I am not a Christian so it doesn't work for me.     But as the author is obviously  a committed christian who believes in the Bible I can see where he is coming from.     IMO his theory is intriguing, very well-researched and is backed up with cites.   Whether it is correct or not - is matter of opinion. 

However,  there is nothing in the article which even hints that any of the McCann family should be worshipped - or compared to God.

How do you know he is a Christian ?

Placing Madeleine as the subject of the second coming clearly involves her parents as does the implied link, if you read his other 'material' , where he believes he  and others are descendants of Jesus.

Personally, I find this material quite disturbing.

And your point is?

No point, just an answer to your post 153.
