The real religion?

[Jesster]

Why not? It's a game everyone can play.

I think narrators are able to fashion their materials in such a way as to convey lessons within various contexts, 'prove' points, and suggest theological significance. Of course, my opinion is actually grounded in what we know about human narrators. No credulity required.

Still waiting for some evidence of a conspiracy/fraud/less than honest account...

In the meantime, I am going to accept the accounts/facts/period analysis as it was originally written. I have no reason to believe this group of people lied or were confused--especially since my belief in God is properly basic!! 

And we're still waiting on your evidence. You're making the claims and we haven't bought it yet.

In the meantime, you're just giving up your argument and cycling back to one we've already beaten all to hell before. Our memory isn't that short when we have a forum full of posts to read back through.

Give it up already.
