Godschild Wrote:How dumb can you be, Paul never tried to write the NT, he wrote letters that were later used as part of the NT.Paul is always described as almost being the founder of Christianity but obviously Jesus being before him. Or did you not know that the NT has roughly 31% of Paul's letters alone? The biggest contributor out of all the authors.

Not saying it's impossible, just never demonstrated.I'm pretty sure one of the main reasons why that missionary person was deconverted was because of the fact that they wanted nothing to do with some divine being. Did you watch that video?
Drich Wrote:My point was if this was a blaspheme, and it was indeed perpetrated by the NT writers apart from Moses (who originally wrote down the Genesis account) then why oh why have the Jews independently adopted this blaspheme when not adopting it, could dispel the whole Christian religion?By the same token, why did some Jews stay Jewish back then? Setting aside that Jews see their beliefs tied to their culture (because the exception to that are Christian Jews who believe in Christ but keep their Jewish heritage alive) does it worry you that maybe Jews know something about your messiah that you don't? They must have seen through the hearsay that later became the gospels.
