Quote:You're already predisposed to reject everything I have to say,
Because you are not the first to come along with this particular line of shit.
"I know god is real because he talks to me." The nut houses are full of people like that. Put the string (in quotes) "god told me to kill" into google and see how many hits you get.
As far as evidence and jesus performing a miracle in front of me, yeah...that might do it. But if you had a single first-century historical reference to some itinerant preacher wandering around Palestine doing magic tricks I would accept that as evidence that at least the BELIEF was current at the time. But you don't. All you have are the gospel ramblings which, no matter when they were originally written have been extensively edited by men with an agenda of their own. The fact that early xtians were so embarrassed by the lack of historical reference to their boy that they went back and forged a few speaks volumes to me about the reality of your beliefs.
