Am I nuts? I like Jesus..:)

Steady on, that's only out-of-context Old Testament stuff!

If God wanted us to stick with the Old T he wouldn't have sent JC to give us the New T, (the clue is in the name)..
Jesus didn't care if anybody was born out of wedlock- "Whoever comes to me I'll never turn away"
PS- I was conceived out of wedlock and it was such a heinous social crime in those days that my panicking parents quickly had a shotgun wedding to cover it up.
Dunno if they discussed aborting me, but abortion was common in those days and their friends and neighbours would have probably thought "Oh well, it was for the best", and wouldn't have minded if they'd have aborted me, but I might have minded..

What Min said.  Matthew 5:18.  Right from your own book of repulsive genocidal 2000 year old fairy tales.  You sure keep splattering quotes from that monstrous compilation all over the place, as if they mean anything.  As I said many posts ago, the ridiculous old book proves less than nothing.  I could grab quotes from Harry Potter that would be more interesting and have more relevance.   If your imaginary friend exists and isn't utterly and completely impotent and incompetent, then have it show up and say "hi".  A creature that supposedly created billions of galaxies should be able to do that - particularly in an era where a 7-year-old can make a post on Facebook and have it traverse the globe.  No deity worth a second's notice needs a HUMAN BEING to speak FOR it.  



One piece of evidence.  One little itty bitty bit of proof.  People have been trying to find it for more than 2000 years without success.



Oh, and by the way, it was a political move.  Constantine was never christian.  He needed to get the leaders of a squabbling cult to agree on something, and he needed to find a way to control the squabbling cult.  



I've read the wholly babble cover to cover many times.  I was made to memorize it as a child.  That's how I know it's crap.

Got any proof for that claim (note: the bible itself is the claim, so quoting it is merely restating the assertion)?

The snooty priests and Romans could easily have debunked christianity by finding Jesus's body, but they never could because he was alive and well far away through the 'Jesus Stargate' just like he'd told people earlier-
"I know where I came from and where I am going, but you have no idea where I come from or where I am going " (John 8:14/ 8:23/10:38/Matt 13:35)
Maybe they should have sent out a probe..

STARGATE-THE MOVIE
[The probe moves up the ramp, then through the Stargate.]
SHORE -"The thing has locked itself onto a point somewhere in the Kaliam galaxy."
DANIEL- "Where are we on that map?"
CATHERINE- "That's right, Jackson. It's on the other side of the known universe"

Eh, I already called him out on that and never got an answer.

Sorry if I've missed any of your posts guys, but they're coming thick and fast, the answer to that one is that atheist books are the source for atheists assertions, so why shouldn't the bible be the source for christian assertions?..
PS- In my 15 years on the internet debating circuit I've gained a reputation for never dodging a question..-
How about it Rock?-
"C'mon, it's true, but that don't bother me, I just wanna prove somethin', I ain't no bum, it don't matter if I lose, don't matter if Dropship opens my head.
The only thing I wanna do is go the distance, that's all.
Nobody's ever gone fifteen rounds with Dropship. If I go them fifteen rounds, an' that bell rings an' I'm still standin', I'm gonna know then I weren't just another bum from the neighborhood"...

..Ol' asshole Yahweh was so far "apart" that nobody could prove he didn't ever exist...

Guys, guys, I keep asking you exactly why  you don't like JC, was it something he said or did that ruffles your feathers?
When am I gonna get a straight answer around here?

Oh, I like some of the stuff ol' JC reportedly said, if he existed.  The taking care of your neighbor bit was cool, mostly because it called out selfishness, religious bigotry, thinking that you're "too good" to take care of lowly scum who aren't as holy as you are, all of that crap.  The hero of the story was somebody too lowly for a "righteous Jew" to speak to.  I like some of the stuff in the Buddhist writings, I like the book of the Tao, and Confucius is cool.  Mostly.

But "like" Jesus?  Jesus is dead, if he ever existed.  The concept is weird.  I like lots of fictional characters, but they have no impact on real life.  Just like Jesus.  The only problem is I don't have assholes getting in my face throwing fits that I don't LIKE Batman and quoting lines from comic books and movies as if they were important.
