In response to the abject failure of your absurd claims, you make even further and more absurd claims?  Why do you think they'll fare better than their originators?

If this topic is taken to the next step, it'll just cause more problems. If the Hebrew GOD is only one in the long list of GODS that you believe is "right," then Jesus is the next topic to consider. Bottom line ... Jesus isn't coming back.

Seriously, who believes, let alone here, in the long list of GODS to be right?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

You realize that this is an atheist forum, correct? The great, thumping majority of our members don’t consider ANY gods to be ‘right’ and we aren’t exactly fretting over the return of Jesus.

To whom are you preaching?

It's more like the jesus that's in the bible never was.

The bible jesus is not worth discussing.

According to studies done, he did exist. The info in the NT, whether people want to get into this or not, boils down to the fact he was supposed to return back in their day somewhere ... but it never happened. People have been reading a 1900+ year text of people talking to people 1900+ years ago, as if it's talking to them today. I don't particularly care if we skip it ... it's up to people here. Someone brought up talking about the paranormal and we can do that too. Or, just dump the whole thing ... it doesn't matter to me.

(Bold mine)

That would be you.

And the historicity of Jesus of Nazareth is very much an open question.
