This is why Christians on this forum defend their faith (or try to... miserably). You, my friend, by refusing to justify your beliefs, are not honouring Jesus, or so this verse tells us.
awwwwwe Christian ... you're lucky jesus is dead, you'd be in so much shit right now!
lol
Lets clarify here. IF Jesus had existed. There is actually no contemporary evidence of the alleged Jesus. There probably was a man or group of men who started a new Jewish cult, and they simply picked a popular name to attach to their myth to sell their story. Probably had a con man pull "faith healing" tricks to convince people of his "powers".
But no man has ever been born of a virgin and no one survives rigor mortis.
I always like to add this in to allow readers to know what the real issues are. You can debate the "interpretation" all you want, but myth is still myth and even before you get to that comic book, all invisible sky daddy claims start with the naked assertion that such a critter is even possible.
I also do this to remind this defender of Christianity, that other people have other invisible friends they try to defend too. So take a number.
I simply don't want this Christian, or any believer of any faith thinking we think their claims are special. We only question god claims of any kind because people vote and people can use their religions as weapons.
