Shit. What The Hell. Jesus Never Existed

[Iroscato]

My personal view is that Jesus was an amalgamation of several pre-Christian figures who often shared multiple traits such as the virgin birth, being born around the winter solstice, being resurrected and so on, and whose origins lie in repurposed pagan mythology.
Could there have been a Jewish traveller 2000 years ago with some upstart ideas? Quite possibly.
But he did not perform miracles.
He was not born of a virgin.
He did not die and come back several days later.
He was not the creator and ruler of the cosmos in human form.

Ultimately, when you take away the absurdity of his "miracles", all you're left with is some scruffy guy who annoyed the Romans a bit. Hardly cuts an impressive figure, now does he?

Day after day, it still amuses and bemuses me that grown adults still believe these infantile, pathetic myths - moreover, build their entire lives around a collection of stories about a magic man who loves us lots and lots, except the ones he burns in eternal torment, because fuck those guys.
