Why so little faith?
Ahem, I believe that Jesus was a real guy as much as I believe that George Washington was a real guy. I am completely 100% completely freaking sure that Jesus existed. I have read it in history textbooks, seen it quoted in Christian and Non-Christian sources. It's not a extreme belief in my mind, it's a solid historical fact.
You dare accuse a Christian? You obviously have little understanding of us. Other books like John clearly describe a living, walking guy who was claiming to be the Son of God, so Jesus was God. He might have been communicating through those, that doesn't mean Jesus didn't exist.
No it doesn't matter. I am arguing because there is a misconception, Jesus did exist.
Jesus NEVER claimed to be God in the Synoptic Gospels.
