ArchivedWas Jesus a real personYou seem to think that all Christian's are brain washed morons who have not taken the time to study what they believe. I can't speak for all who name Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior; however, I have studied Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, etc. I have also studied the beliefs of indigent tribes of South America, Africa, Indonesia, Asia, etc. None of the Far Eastern religions or Islam teaches, “Love your neighbor”. The Hindu caste system is about as subversive as you can find in the modern world, Islam teaches world dominance by force of arms. Christianity teaches that we should not only love our neighbor but our enemy. Google search "Did Jesus Exist" returned 503,000 sites and you base your conclusion on dozens of sites? Nero blamed the burning of Rome on Christians, which is the first recorded mass persecution of a religion named for a man you claim never lived. So has your research uncovered why men, women, and children would rather die in the Coliseum than renounce their faith in this non-existent person? Jesus was crucified less than 30 years earlier. Jesus was an itinerant preacher to the Jews whose purpose was to teach God’s law to God’s chosen people. For a man who never existed He has caused quit a stir over the last 2000 years. List your facts. So far all you have listed is your opinion and one Internet site that agrees with you, a site that is full of generalities and a total lack of good scholarship. “Biblical scholars agree that Jesus did not exist” is not proof. I can state “Biblical scholars agree that Jesus was born of Mary in Bethlehem, was crucified by Pontius Pilate, and arose from the dead on the third day” and be just as correct as your source. And Greg, I don’t have to prove anything to you. Faith is a personal issue, not something that can be proved or disproved. Faith is based on personal experiences as well as knowledge.
