Stop making this about just one religion. 

I think your point is why didn't anyone during the alleged time write anything down. I GET THAT.

I'd seriously suggest you spend some time looking up the history of the "first days" of other "founders" of other religions. You will find just as much inconsistency and superstitious nonsense. 

Again, the mythology of the first Buddha had him being born out of the side of his mother Queen Maya. She, like the Virgin Mary myth was told by the divine world that she would give a gift to the world.

In Egyptian Mythology Isis, Mother of Horus gave birth to the child savior to the Egyptians.

I think you are getting stuck on the popularity of that tradition instead of focusing on evidence. 

If Trump told you he had the biggest crowd at his inauguration would you believe him? If his fans told you that would you believe them?

This is about one religion, hence, the title "Jesus:The Missing Years"!

Re: Trump did tell me that and I was offered evidence to the contrary. Plus, I think he is a revolting shithead!

I get that.

Problem is, no matter what "one  religion" you want to focus on, there are far many more who also want to compete. Meanwhile, regardless of the human competition of mythology, our planet and universe don't give one shit about our fantasies as species. 

"The missing years" yea, look in every religion worldwide and you will always find missing parts.

I know! Even in modern religions like Mormonism. The first translations of the tablets went missing and JS had to invent new ones. But, come on, Brian, it is almost Easter/ Good Friday. We can focus on the minutiae. If we need to be politically correct and include the Jewish religion (Passover) I will start a separate thread. We can do Islam later. Ramadan maybe.

Mythology is mythology. Arguing over who existed or did not exist is pointless to me. 

If they found the DNA of Jesus or Mohammed tomorrow that would still not be evidence that humans have guy at the local horse races with a prophet who picks the Exacta.

Mythology can certainly be derived from real events, but that does not make the fantastic claims true. King Tut can be proven to have existed, but and the Pyramids are beautiful, but nobody would claim because he existed that Horus was a real savior god. Oh yea, if Christians don't want to think of Horus as a savior that would be bullshit. Horus was the son of Osiris and Isis who was deemed by Ra  to come and save the Egyptians. 

Same with the mythology of Buddha. It does not matter to me if a group of people started Buddhism. It still remains that the mythology, even in his case, had him being born from a royal linage out of the side of Queen Maya, Buddha's mother, who was supposed to be the boy who would grow up to bring wisdom to the world.

I agree. But, the argument for the adult ministry of Jesus is that there were eyewitnesses. So, where did the historical data for Jesus's early years come from?

It was made up.  Just like the supposed "eyewitness" testimony.

Did Jesus ever give the Virgin Mary that 'look' that would have made her blush ??

You know, if people can be riled up to watch 'little sheldon', i think you could make a show out of that. Why wait for someone else todictate you fiction when you could make it up yourself?
