I have no argument. I'm simply trying to understand why someone would believe Jesus to be a more credible source than myself, a madman in some eyes.
People were even more guillible and superstitious then than they are now. Of course, Drich is going to try to deny this somehow.
I don't know. Top sportsmen and sportswomen have superstitions. It's as if a part of the mind needs to be settled in order for them to perceive a 100% positive outcome, because a positive outcome isn't realistic and it could equally be negative.
Yet the blind belief in that positivity scientifically makes it more probable to happen because of visualisation. I think it is the same for some people believing in Jesus.
It isn't logically true. But, if that part of the brain has it settled that it is true then it makes a shitload of life a lot easier.
