Is Christianity based on older myths?

[robvalue]

When there's not even consensus and decent enough evidence to conclude that some generic "guy" jesus existed, how can you possibly pile on top of that all the ridiculous supernatural cut and paste nonsense?

At best, you have accounts of what people at the time of the events believed. And that is being really generous to even say that much. Even then, you've got nothing. Belief does not imply truth. Of course christians believed their own shit, it's kind of how religions work. It's just amazing it is still working.

The bible is a massive book of claims.

The only evidence outside it is a few suspicious references that don't even conclusively show jesus to be a real person at all, yet alone all the insane shit in the bible.

This is all clearly a case of "my religion is special". Go talk to a Muslim and see how you can decide between you which one is the "real" religion. They will protest as much as you, and with just as little actual evidence. This is the problem with unfalsifiable claims and arguments from ignorance. They are all as good as each other.

I also proved conclusively that the devil wrote the bible in another thread. It was barely challenged.
