Title: Thaddaeus?!?! Help!
Post by: STAMP on March 30, 2011, 11:14:14 AM: Just curious why we're using his surname, aka last name or family name?

And with everyone calling him Thad, can I just refer to others as Anders, Ha, Als, Isb, and so on?

;)

Lebbaeus Thaddaeus. Hmm...

Simple cancellation:
Lebbaeus = Lebb~~aeus~~
Thaddaeus Thadd~~aeus~~

"b" must be the inverse of "d"
Lebb OR Lebb OR Le(b⁴)
Thadd Tha/bb Tha

My original plan was to cancel out the bb/dd, prove that it all equaled "Le Tha" and make some pun about how Thaddeaus was my cup of tea. (Thé [kinda pronounced Tha] means "tea" in French).

I guess the only thing this proves is that it's impossible to mess with Thad and have it come out like you want it to.

If Thaddeus is his surname, and he's actually Jude, does that mean that Jesus' surname was Thaddeus too?

This being the case, I think all these "Should Judas be a hero?" arguments are moot.

I am slightly confused. I was just making a joke because the question of Judas Iscariot being a hero is one that's had a couple heated debates as of late.
