Maybe it was a solar eclipse, I don't know the info was kinda shaky and from very off websites that I don't really trust but, the fact that they think he was born during a solar eclipse b/c of facts or perceived info in the bible and josephus was talking about a son who was born at a simliar time and there was a solar eclipse. The old testament says that the days will be dark during while he's up there on that fucking cross, that's not just some vague prophecy, that's like saying I'm going to get some tabasco from Rita tomorrow, now that's exact, and eclipses don't have happen everyday like rain. Why diid the OT make up the messiah and then not believe in him when he came? Also have you studied the martydorm of the apostles, now we only have a few nonbiblical sources and yes that fuck Josephus is one of them. He says that Jesus' brother was martyred, why would he lie? B/c martydorm is kinda strange, to say you saw him rise from the dead, not just dying for an idea but a lie, ppl don't lie, they do die for religion, but lies, just curious if this is making you question your faith , the fact that the eclipse literally happened when he was on that cross and that two secular historians say it happened, are we now going down the road that their lying, and even NASA? does it bother you he had an eclipse at birth supposedly and at death, or you gonna chalk that up to chance to?
This will blow your mind.
None of it happened.
Those secular historians don't say what you think they did.
Ok fair enough then why is this NASA thing being pushed and why are they now trying to say he was born during an eclipse and died during one? Do you think it's just a bunch of Christians trying to rationalize ? And I do understand that those seculars probably didn't say it, but NASA did, but most of the history was preserved by Christians, and so it's suspicious. This is a conspiracy theory though, being an atheist really is, but have you personally examined the evidence?
So you think it's just a coincidence that there was an eclipse that day? Or do you think the writers of the Bible did on that day on purpose and knew of the celestial events with their calendars? Was it a rigged job? How did they get it to match up today with NASA?
