See, what's funny about this, is as a Christian you should be viewing the same. You have labeled PEOPLE here as bitter, and such...but that isn't what Jesus taught his followers to do. But, I digress.
I don't disbelieve that Jesus, 'a' man, may have existed at some point in history. I don't believe he was Divine. If he existed, the story in the NT illustrates him as a rejector of religion. He didn't like how the Pharisees 'worshipped' their Deity, and their rules and regulations that caused them to see themselves as elite, and the rest of the population, as peasants.
Many years after he died, the Bible was complied. How do you know that the story of Jesus being divine, and dying for sins, etc wasn't an add on, as to CREATE a religion?
Jesus was against religion, why on earth would he want you to worship him, and follow a religion that worships him? If he was executed at all, it was due to the fact that he went against religion. That's as far as any 'real' story probably goes, as it relates to Jesus. The virgin mary, and saving us from sin...I think, was a manmade invention as to create a religion to control. There is no proof to support that Jesus was who you say he is. Many historians merely believe that he could have existed.
That's what I believe, since we're ont the topic of Jesus.
Preach it Sis! Jesus would have loved you!
I wonder about you, Thunder Cunt.
