DBP you should be very careful because I'm talking about a real person who obviously meant a lot to me. Suppose I gave you his DNA - what would you compare it to? How would you identify it? It's been 15 years (nearly) since his death.
DNA, photos, and medical records are things that didn't exist and were not accessible in the ancient world.
Scholars unanimously tell us that Jesus and Paul existed. If you're going to dispute it then provide valid evidence.
Sorry to upset you, but you literally did ask. As for DNA I would compare it to his lineage like they are doing in Russia with the Romanovs. You weren't asking about the ancient world. But the case for the existence of historical figures is uncertain. For example there is no actual evidence that Socrates was a real person and there are some who posit that he was a figure made up by Plato to illustrate a point. ( I saw a documentary the other week on the BBC about Socrates and this was mentioned).
Quote:There has been some question about whether Socrates really existed or was only ever a creation of Plato. Just about everyone agrees that the Socrates in the later dialogues is a creation, but what about the earlier ones? The differences between the two figures is one reason to think that a real Socrates existed, There are also a few references made by other authors. If Socrates didnt exist, however, that wouldnt affect the ideas attributed to him.

You want a Sacraficial Lamb to prove that your God exists?
Pray for him to kill me.
I will reply if you ask me if I am still alive.
That rules out at the very least a God that wishes to prove his presence, as it could just as easily stop me from replying to you as kill me.

Yeah, I've been inviting God to explode my head for ages. And rip out my guys and fire them into the sky like a weird fireworks display. No dice. He's gone all squeamish on us.

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Cronenberg is a GOD of film !!
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I need to make another plug for Crash (not the other movie of the same name about racialality).
It is truly an amazing work of film genius. Maybe not for everyone, but I'd give it a must see for most everyone here. The film challenges your perception of sex and self and society.
Alternately criticized as pornographic AND anti-pornographic, Crash will elicit a visceral response in you.
Don't keep wondering why I rave on about this film, just go watch.
