LOL, you're such a dumbass.
So BadWriter'sParty, have you ever been molested by a religious figure or as a religious figure, have you ever molested anyone?
Ay, sir. A man named Brother Catfish once tickled my fancy.

Mmmmm...tasty ad Homs. Yes, this is definitely worth prolonging. How do you rationalize your own deflecting of questions, I wonder?

How? I take precedence from your dumb ass.
You have yet to produce "evidence" from the Bible or have yet to concede that belief in either of smax's assertions are not required.
You don't get to ignore your responsibilty and then demand that I adhere to your selfish version of how this works.
Answer your part first and then I'll tell you to fuck off with your personal questions.

Catfish, is this whole argument over you wanting proof that christians either believe Jesus is God or the son of God? Because if it is, its a stupid argument. Believing that Jesus is God and/or the son of God is kind of the definition of a christian isn't it. No evidence is needed for something like that and it just appears that you are being petty and childish for no other reason than to piss people off

Personally I think there was most likely a historical jesus.
My reasoning is purely down to his manner of death.
He was executed by the Romans for being a nuisance. The biblical text goes out of the way to try and explain why such an important godly figure would die such a degrading death, but in doing so makes little sense and smacks of desperation.
It sounds to me like some people followed a charismatic who made lots of promises, who was then done away with by the authorities of the time for being a bit of an inconvenience.
The followers can't admit they were wrong, so they concoct a cock and bull story to justify their stupid faith in someone who fed them a load of bollocks that they swallowed.
I have seen interviews with survivors of the Waco disaster doing exactly this about David koresh.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

Are you trying to say that I am wrong, or that I should provide evidence for everything I say?
I'm assuming that is what a christian is, I have never met, nor heard of a Christian who doesn't believe Jesus was God and/or the son of God. I guess i'm just assuming too much.....
