What I mean is... To say jesus is mythical isn't making a claim as such, it's just saying HJ has not met its burden of proof. And I don't mean declaring that it definitely is mythical; just that if something isn't demonstrably real, we have no reason to assume it's anything but fiction.
Right, well yeah. You can just pick any random jesus back then and it's "based on" them as much as any other jesus. But if you can't attribute a single word or action to them, in what way is it based on them? That's my problem
I mean, Harry potter may be "based on" a real Harry, but what does that mean? Does it make Harry potter any more real if so?
Sorry for the confusion dystopia, I really appreciate the feedback and upon re reading my blog I can see definite bits I could improve. Sorry I was confused, I can see your concerns now. I hope to improve it soon.
Cheers!
Maybe mythicist is the wrong term for my position. I may be getting confused. I'll think it over! Maybe thats making a separate claim... OK that may be a bad idea then! I'll think about it!
