If you lived in Jesus' day, how would you of responded?

[Revelation777]

How can you say as a matter of fact that there was no miracles back then? I gave the question as a hypothetical as if there were indeed true miracles how you would of responded to Him.

How can you say that there were miracles back then? The wording of the first post in the thread didn't act like you were treating the miracles as a hypothetical. You acted like they were an assumption. They're not.

You're pretty much asking, "If there was proof of God's existence, would you believe in God's existence?" This isn't a yes or no question. It's a loaded question with only one correct answer. And until there is such proof, either for God's existence or that there were true miracles 2000 years ago, then the question of how to treat that proof isn't even worth discussing.

I didn't ask "If there was proof of God's existence, would you believe in God's existence?" Rather, if there was a Jesus who indeed was performing real miracles how would you respond to that?

If you lived in Victorian England, would you believe Spring-heeled Jack was real?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring-heeled_Jack

Spring-heeled Jack is an entity in English folklore of the Victorian era. The first claimed sighting of Spring-heeled Jack was in 1837.[1] Later sightings were reported all over Great Britain and were especially prevalent in suburban London, the Midlands and Scotland.[2]
There are many theories about the nature and identity of Spring-heeled Jack. This urban legend was very popular in its time, due to the tales of his bizarre appearance and ability to make extraordinary leaps, to the point that he became the topic of several works of fiction.
Spring-heeled Jack was described by people who claimed to have seen him as having a terrifying and frightful appearance, with diabolical physiognomy, clawed hands, and eyes that "resembled red balls of fire". One report claimed that, beneath a black cloak, he wore a helmet and a tight-fitting white garment like an oilskin. Many stories also mention a "Devil-like" aspect. Others said he was tall and thin, with the appearance of a gentleman. Several reports mention that he could breathe out blue and white flames and that he wore sharp metallic claws at his fingertips. At least two people claimed that he was able to speak comprehensible English.

Your Jesus myth is just Spring-heeled Jack with better marketing and more legs.

As far as I know "Spring-healed Jack" didn't turn the world upside down. Doesn't have countless books and songs written about him. Doesn't have millions if not billions of true followers. Doesn't have people who sacrificed their lives because of him. Just my thoughts.
