Because Christians have disagreed over..just about every point of doctrine (including whether or not Jesus was all human or all god or both), all the time claiming they had the truth. You have to understand that from our point of view, everything that you claim is conjecture.
Fair point and understood. I completely understand that anything I believe is scrutinized (as it should be). I believe that most Christians believe there was a man who lived, died and rose from the dead 2000 years ago named Jesus Christ who performed miracles and had disciples that so ferociously believed in Him they were willing to die. I believe most Christians believe that the entire universe was created by a being, force, entity (whatever word you like) outside of any natural law.
Again though anything I say is MY opinion based on my understanding of the information I have consciously elected to intake and make a decision on. What you believe is not my business. To each their own.
Would you say that your understanding of the information is based on scientific and historical foundations, or on faith? Because "to each his own" is a fine way to live, until the people who believe as you do try to start pushing these beliefs into public schools, because they claim that their beliefs are not only true, but validated by science and history (see creationism in the US public school system). The problem is that we want to teach our children what is true, but people obviously disagree about what is true. Would you cordon off these religious beliefs of yours into an area completely separate from scholastic history and science education and keep them as a matter of the church and of faith?
