The most erroneous part of that post was to say "the best known person who ever lived". There is no truth in saying that Jesus ever lived and died as the person told in the Bible, simply because there is no evidence that can show that Jesus ever lived. Santa Claus is also a well-known person, too. Yet, he is based on lies and his existent is false.

If you could time travel back 2000 years, you would not find some teenager/young adult in Judea who could perform miracles at will, or who held audiences captive with his speeches/teachings. Most of the bible is made up of stories about mythology. The story of Jesus being among the mythology.

I can't entertain that someone would live to perform miraculous acts of God, and not be used by the Roman Empire to help alleviate suffering/make Rome even stronger. It's the whole "ho-hum" attitude of people after Jesus' death that leaves me to believe that, had Jesus been real, he did not have a major impact on his community. It feels as if the story about Jesus was that he did not want to prove his worth to people, and died as a fraud, and one massive disappointment.

I would not consider Jesus to have ever existed beyond the fables told in the Bible.

QUESTION;
Why not ? !!!!!!!!


e.g.
I've got and use, a wifi device.

The ability of my wifi device would have been 'supernatual' 2000 years ago too.




The truth is that, you atheists live in such a small 'universe' and on such a small 'world'.     !!!

For you, and yours, nothing exists [or can exist], unless you can sense it with some part of you physical body.

Dum!

Oh, so you can see, that there is a difference, between mankind's comprehension of the existence and workings of one, and of the other ?

So, those things which you 'understand',    ....you say you understand those, because those things, can be explained scientifically ?

But that which you do not understand is 'supernatural', and is 'hocus pocus'.

I see.



I do not understand very much.

It is not within me, within my mental capacity, to understand many things.

But when i see something which i do not understand, i ask questions.

I even ask questions about, what others call, 'faerie tales'.

Coz i'm a very gullible person.

There is not one scintilla of proof that it/they did.

So you know that wifi is real.

Good on ya.


What about black, and white ?

What about up, and down ?

What about good, and evil ?

What about sanity, and insanity ?



Can't quite 'put your finger on them' ?

Have no particular interest, in discerning between them ?

You have more important things to do ?



Good.

Get on with your more important things then.

One of the many details ive come across is with many Christians they don't highlight much of the details concerning Jesus' family and his dealings with them, most will know the identity of mary and joseph his legal father, but how many do know that jesus had four brothers, and they named, james, joses, judas and simon and at least two sisters.

If you read the gospels in reference to the situations between jesus and his family, has revealed some consistent hostility between them.

First example

Luke 2;41 -52

41 Every year Jesus’ parents went to Jerusalem for the Festival of the Passover. 42 When he was twelve years old, they went up to the festival, according to the custom. 43 After the festival was over, while his parents were returning home, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but they were unaware of it. 44 Thinking he was in their company, they traveled on for a day. Then they began looking for him among their relatives and friends. 45 When they did not find him, they went back to Jerusalem to look for him. 46 After three days they found him in the temple courts, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. 47 Everyone who heard him was amazed at his understanding and his answers. 48 When his parents saw him, they were astonished. His mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us like this? Your father and I have been anxiously searching for you.”

49 “Why were you searching for me?” he asked. “Didn’t you know I had to be in my Father’s house?”[a] 50 But they did not understand what he was saying to them.
