hurr you sure got me durr your semantics mean nothing to me. Stop trying to divert attention away from the point of the thread
None of this matters , so what if you think "Jesus probably never existed" , There are dozens of Islamic countries WHO DO believe in Jesus Christ the Messiah and are awaiting his return. You dont have to believe in matters that dont concern you...Nahmean and there are an army of true christians who are waiting for him too
I don't see what's wrong with acknowledging that fact that a "god" may not exist, yet you hope that there is. I'm not religious but there is no reason to go about attacking people that are. Frankly, resorting to calling their beliefs as just fairy tales is pretty insulting and immature of you. No matter your position, you have to see that there is a huge difference between the two. Isn't the whole point of faith based on the idea of where you cannot use logic or reason? This goes all the way back to Plato and Socrates. I think you're confusing the idea of faith. It's not meant to be a substitute of logic. Honestly, this just doesn't make any sense at all. This goes back to the fact that you're confusing the core concept of faith. Again, I'm not religious but the points you're trying to make are a little convoluted and ignorant at times. I'm not atheist and I feel that for a majority of people it tends to be more of a fashion statement than anything else. I truly believe that the best position to take is agnostic. I say this in a strict non-religion bias. I don't believe in any organized religion but I think it's healthy for someone acknowledge both sides and just be happy with whatever happens to be true.
Yeah we can definitely prove Jesus existed with records. The argument isn't if he existed, its if he was holy or not.
Haha the funny thing is, ive only just realised from this qoute that saying religious people are the only ones who claim certainty is extremely ironic!
most likely a forgery Philo mentions Jesus? ha ha Born decades after the supposed death of jesus Refers to the Jewish people and 'Chrestus', or 'anointed one'. It is a title, not a name Born decades after the supposed death of Jesus and talks only about Christians rather than Jesus
Most likely? It takes faith to believe that. I own copies of his documents. Yes, he does. Okay. As is the case with most ancient historians. Okay. Believe what you want man. I ain't forcin' ya
