Quote:Christ is well documented in Historical texts.

Now you have crossed the line and are an outright liar, Drippy.

Your godboy does not exist in historical texts except in a few spots where desperate editors tried to retrofit him into the story. It fools no one but the fools.

That line had been crossed long before we ever had the misfortune of meeting Drich.

IT'S an important thing to pay attention to when YOU'RE using contractions. You need to use proper grammar or people might think you're stupid or something.

Wow, how little it takes to earn your allegiance. You follow and respect production value... And I am the stupid one?

Ill watch one. upto 15 mins of one. If you want me to address one specific part or one specific movie give me a link and a time index and we will go from there. If you blow off and ignore what I say, then I am not watching any more crap I hate God movies for a while. As they are waists of time.

As always you've missed the point Minnie. I am saying that there is a libary full of historical texts, that identify and verify Christ, but because of the libary's location ALL of those works are dismissed as religious texts. No one outside of the RC chruch has taken the time to pour over each and every one. So you can not say nothing exists that supports a historical Jesus.

starting with video 1
@2:11 the host states that the resurection is based in our current form/matter/body. When Clearly the bible states in 1 cor 15:42 fSo is it with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable; what is raised is imperishable. 43 It is sown in dishonor; git is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power. 44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. 45 Thus it is written, h“The first man Adam became a living being”;5 ithe last Adam became a jlife-giving spirit. 46 But it is not the spiritual that is first but the natural, and then the spiritual. 47 kThe first man was from the earth, la man of dust; mthe second man is from heaven. 48 As was the man of dust, so also are those who are of the dust, and as is the man of heaven, nso also are those who are of heaven. 49 Just oas we have borne the image of the man of dust, pwe shall6 also bear the image of the man of heaven.

Mystery and Victory

50 I tell you this, brothers: qflesh and blood rcannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. 51 Behold! I tell you a mystery. sWe shall not all sleep, tbut we shall all be changed, 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For uthe trumpet will sound, and vthe dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed. 53 For this perishable body must put on the imperishable, and wthis mortal body must put on immortality.

So the Foundation of this dbags arguement is irrepairably cracked, and will not support the rest of his arguement. He has created a strawman dressed it up like the doctrine of the resurrection, and is attacking the strawman. When people like Minnie hear something they been waiting for things like TRUTH take a side burner to unverified facts. Facts that tickle his fancy just in the way he wants it tickled.

@2:50 The host points out that the religious leaders did not believe in the resurection. Then He quotes a question that the Saducees mockingly asked Christ. (as if the idea of the resurection was based in later greek works) Appearently the host does not know or simply failed to mention that the Pharasees did believe in the after life/resurrection, while the Saducces did not. (That is why they are sad-u-cee? This is all sunday school stuff)

@3:00 He introduces Cellcus and his great body of work.. that has not survived, but the work refuting it did @ 3:30. All to point to a old source that dismisses the concept of resurection in the time of Christ. But again, The fundemental difference between Pharasees and the Sad-U-Cees, was their belief in a after life/resurection.

Do I really need to go one and force myself to watch the second one? Or does he just keep building on the cracked strawman foundation he starts out with in the first one?

Since it is a bunch of nonsense - why bother discussing it

THe reason why the story is nonsense is because the christ is a MYTH - and cannot be proven to have lived

THe idea that a MYTH had a real tomb is nonsense

Oh Lord... please don't tell me people on this forum believe in the Christ myth theory. CMT is almost as bad as the ones portrayed in zeitgeist.

Well, we really only have two choices. It's either myth or legend, and in the absence of an actual person to congeal a legend around - that leaves us with myth. We could spin it as an assumed legend (it's not required that the character existed - only that people believed that the character existed - to be qualified as legendary as opposed to mythical). CMT theory dilineates between the authors conception of the narrative (proposed as mythical) and it's reception (as legendary, obviously, at some point).

Honestly, I dont care.

Now that the vidieo has been shown to be fatally flawed few people will, till the next person posts it.

The only thing that is fatally flawed is your silly-assed god story.

Total shit from the word go.

Is this what people are like on this forum? If so, I think I may have made a mistake in coming here. I'm looking for substantive dialogue, not these cheap shot remarks that add nothing to the conversation.

Well lets give human gullibility the credit, they built off of the prior superstition of Hebrews who drew off the polytheism of that prior. And our species once was painting animal gods on cave walls.

We really cant blame any human back then for buying either polytheistic crap or monotheistic crap, they simply did not know better. But to say all our evolution which allowed us to make all those bad guesses as a species, can be overturned in one generation is a bit lofty. I think the more people learn and rely more on technology and science the less relevant religion becomes.

I think instead of blaming, we need time to wake up from a very bad dream, the delusion we self inflict called superstition. It is a self inflicted Hoax, all of it no matter what religion or what point in history. The Egyptians falsely believed the sun was a thinking being for 3,000 years.
