Historian explains why Jesus ''mythers'' aren't taken seriously by most Historians

[robvalue]

I think mythers, HJers and everyone inbetween should all get along and just agree that religion is bullshit. No need for infighting about the exact level of fiction used in the bible

That isn't going to happen.  Once people agree about something, then they tend to talk about it less.  It is disagreements that tend to generate the most active discussions.  You can see that in this thread, in that there is little discussion about whether or not the miracles attributed to Jesus actually happened.  It is the points of disagreement that tend to get the most discussion.


Also, people do not even seem to get it when I am joking, though you clearly understood the joke that was directed at you.  Such a joke therefore can generate responses, where people disagree with what they take the joke to mean.

Of course, people not understanding my jokes will not stop me from telling them.

Sure, I got your joke

I'm all for discussion, I have no problem with that. I just don't understand why this subject causes some people to get steam coming out their ears and resort to name calling.
