(October 9, 2013 at 3:25 pm)Sword of Christ Wrote: If Jesus had been invented it then would have gone something like this.
"Good news Christ has risen!"
"Who?"
"Jesus Christ was executed a few years and rose again?"
"No I don't remember him around these here parts"
"Perhaps you just forgot about him. it was about 20 years ago?"
"No I think I would remember him."
And that would have killed the movement in it's tracks.
That's why they waited at least 70 years before inventing the gospels. Then it would go something like this:
"Of course you don't remember Jesus, he died before you were born, but let me tell you about all these wondrous things he did."
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
