What Sacrifice ?

[MORETORQUE]

I find no compelling reason to believe that the character of Jesus Christ ever actually existed, although I'm open to the possibility that some religious fanatic (or several) of the time loosely fits the bill. This would have been someone who probably didn't make most of the bold claims the Bible suggests Jesus made, and probably wasn't trying to completely revolutionize Judaism. The name Jesus was very common during the time Christ is alleged to have lived, and is actually just another form of the name Joshua.

Beyond that very loose connection (if any for that matter), the Jesus of the Bible is nothing more than a collection of plagiarisms of other gods that long pre-dated his alleged existence.

Just to add to that, a person who actually fit the description the Bible gives of the character of Christ, and the things he allegedly did, would be as well documented in history as anyone who ever lived.

As it is, good luck finding any reliable history books with Jesus and his accomplishments in it.

There is no proof Jesus was a real person and there are no credibal witnesess to account. The bible is designed to baffel you with bullshit but under all that bullshit it tells a real simple story.

Jesus was more than likely a real person but they made him bigger than life to wooo the mass public reading the book they wrote.

It tells you through the blood of christ, that is the point of the story, he forfeits his life in a unusual way.

There is a major theme in his teachings that are kinda irrelivant today with a modern culture and that is we do have forms of birth control today.
