Quote:Did you know there are no primary sources on Ghenghis Khan? Lots of established ancient figures have no primary sources and no more documentation then Jesus. The ancient world, everyone was illiterate and the oral tradition was king.
Yeah he only had about a million kids and a genetic legacy that spans most of Eurasia .And direct documented descendants long after his death.
And no Jesus does not even come close to historical figures like Alexander or the Khan . He's firmly in realm of mythical figures by category . And any attempt by apologists to compare jesus to actual historical persons is doomed to fail .
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
