Quote:Quite easily if your Christ was a spiritual concept and never had a physical presence which is what the Gnostics, in common with many of the mystery religions of the time, appeared to believe.This cave proved a man called 'The Christ' existed in 33 A.D.
Quote:It changes atheism in no way at all especially, since you dummies can't seem to understand thi simple idea, as atheism is not a philosophy.This discovery puts atheism at risk of total failure. Atheists have claimed over the last several hundred years that Jesus Christ was a mythical super-hero invented by the Gospel records many decades after his death. Now we are finding caves where Jesus did have followers in 33 a.d. Long before any Gospel account.
But now archaealogists are discovering caves where Jesus Christ did in fact have followers long before the Gospels.
This cave was discovered in Jordan, by a Jordanian archaealogist, which means he is more than likely a Muslim/Islamic believer.
Why would a Muslim claim Jesus' followers fled from Jerusalem into Jordan soon after his death?
I don't know why skeptics have such a hard time swallowing their pride, and openly admitting Jesus Christ existed in the first century, and he was a well respected, and well known Jewish Rabbi that claimed to have the powers of God in him.
People, it's a proven fact that a man called, 'the Christ' existed in the first century. This is not a mythical story invented by a bunch of "delusional" men with nothing better to do than make up stories about 'super-heroes."

Dun dun dunnnn indeed :p (These persecution complexes are rampant)An anti-Christian archaealogist is someone who can claim "Jesus existed," but they don't believe the divinity part of the story.
Jesus existed, my friend.
You must face the facts sooner or later..
