Quote:A common argument I hear from apologists basically says that if Jesus wasn't really the son of God, didn't perform all those miracles, didn't really rise from the dead, and his apostles and followers didn't perform miracles and have revelations, then Christianity wouldn't lasted and become the major religion it is today. I.e., no substantial number of people would have believed it if its claims weren't true.
Ancient Egyptians followed Horus, Isis, and Osiris for over 3,000 years. Yet I submit you will not find a single xtian who asserts that the alleged deeds of these gods were real. Xtians love special pleading for their godboy. Makes them all wet in the pants.
It's a horseshit argument.
