All I'm doing is waiting and asking you to present a case for why you believe the things you say. I accept that you believe these things; I'm asking you to accept your burden of proof. For instance, you just said that you think "God" revealed itself through this Jesus character. Ok, on what basis do you think that?
Jesus' resurrection from the dead.
no resurrection = no Christianity
Anyone can claim to be the Son of God, but Jesus said He will show one sign and that was that He would be raised from the dead 3 days after He was killed. Jesus appeared to the disciples as well as hundreds of others in His resurrected form, and His followers went from scared to bold in their faith. why? because they KNEW everything He said was true because Jesus proved it by His resurrection.
As you know, many Christians died for their faith in Jesus Christ; I refuse to believe that they were defending a lie. I believe that Jesus was raised from the dead and that life everlasting is through Him.
That's not the only story in history we have of someone being born a virgin, and coming back after being killed.
