Challenge to atheists: I find your lack of faith disturbing!

[Thor]

You're an idiot, either contribute, or go practise falling down someplace else please.

Insults... nice. But it's what I've come to expect when debating with believers.

Maybe you can cite ONE historical document or record written DURING THE SUPPOSED LIFETIME OF ALEXANDER THE GREAT that mentions the life and/or death of this man?

And away we go.... Here's the canard that when you're challenged to provide evidence that Jesus existed, you pull out someone from the ancient world (in this case, Alexander the Great) and challenge us to provide evidence of their existence.

Some problems here.... First of all, Alexander the Great lived over 300 years before Jesus was supposedly born. Original records from his time would be much scarcer than records from the supposed time of Jesus. Plus, there were a number of historians who lived during the time of Jesus, and none of them mention him. There are also no mentions of him in any document, record or writing. And then there's the fact that Alexander the Great is not claimed to be the embodiment of a deity, nor is it claimed that he performed impossible feats such as walking on water or rising up from the dead. So there is little reason to doubt his existence. Unlike your godboy...

My point in this thread is to draw your attention to the fact that you're a complete idiot if you doubt that Jesus was a real person, or doubt any of the other "indisputable" facts.

My guess is that there probably was a guy named Jesus who was an itinerant preacher that gained a small following. After his death stories about him became wildly exaggerated and a religion based on these tales took root. Then the religion really took hold when Constantine declared Christianity to be the state religion of the Roman Empire. Without Constantine, your religion would probably be a fringe cult today.

So what makes you believe the fantastical tales associated with "Jesus" are true?
