Quote:if what your trying to say is it was just a farm in the time of jesus, how can that be deturmined?
It's called archaeology and it is crystal clear that you know nothing about it.
Before NY was a city is was an Indian village in a clearing.
Quote:and i have already read the crap from jesusneverexisted about nazerath and found it is very historicaly inaccurate.
I suspect your history is as faulty as your archaeology. You believe what you want to believe and no amount of evidence will sway you because you are desperate to accept bullshit as reality.
Quote:but that nazerath was not just a farm.
Is English your first language? I'm having trouble accepting that you are really this dense. They did NOT find a village. They found a FUCKING farm. Modern re-enactors are BUILDING what they claim to be a first century village so they can entice gullible xtian morons to come to the site and spend money on phony horseshit. This is a cottage industry in the middle east and separating stupid xtians from their money is one of the few things that Palestinians and Jews agree on. If you are an example of one of jesus' followers he is welcome to you.
For the record: Josephus commanded the Jewish rebels in Galilee during the Great Revolt. He campaigned extensively across the area and cataloged the various settlements he went through trying to whip up support for the rebels. ( Sepphoris, near "Nazareth" never joined the rebellion while the other main city of Galilee, Tiberias, surrendered as soon as the Romans approached.) Josephus withdrew to the town of Jotapata which he defended in a 47 day siege. In spite of the fact that Jotapata is about 2 miles from the site of so-called Nazareth and the Roman siege lines would have practically been sitting on top of it, Josephus never mentions the place. Neither did anyone else and this was 35 years, more or less, after your alleged jesus died...forget being born.
Oh, and one more thing asshole. Your "quote" by James Madison is another fraud. You are easily fooled apparently.

Quote:I will use capitals to indicate the words Barton selected to arrive at his newly created false quote:
SECTION 15, Because finally, 'the equal right of every citizen to the free exercise of his RELIGION according to the dictates of conscience' IS held by the same tenure with all his other rights. If we recur to its orgin, it is equally the gift of nature; if we weigh its importance, it cannot be less dear to us; if we consider the 'Declaration of those rights which pertain to the good people of Virginia, as THE BASIS AND FOUNDATION OF GOVERNMENT,' it is enumerated with equal solemnity, or rather studied emphasis.
Madison, in other words, was talking about individual's rights, of which the free exercise of his religion was one, as being the basis and foundation of government. He even refers to the Declaration of Rights that was part of the Virginia Constitution as his example.
