World's Oldest Christian Church discovered in Jordan!!

RE: World's Oldest Christian Church discovered in Jordan!!
One thing that maybe not have anything about to do about this.

But that Jesus of Nazareth, or Jesus Christ if you want, may have existed. But as many historican believes where he probably some kind of rebelic leader. he was prboably a activist. He was according what I read on wikipedia: The historical Jesus was a Galilean Jew living in a time of messianic and apocalyptic expectations. You can read more at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_Jesus.

Theres alot things there that intresting, such as the may have been more popular people named Jesus during that time. That he also was a follower of religious activist John The Baptist and followed his learnings.

Anyway thats intresting but the most intresting that immidetly prove that existense of the Jesus in bible is wrong, taht he wasnt buried by his followers then came to life and so on is this:

After crucifixion, bodies would have normally been exhibited for some time as a warning to the myriad other antagonists in Jerusalem, and eventually left in a shallow mass grave, exposed to wild dogs and other scavengers.[citation needed] Crossan, based on his unique position that the Gospel of Peter contains the oldest primary source about Jesus, argued that the burial accounts become progressively extravagant and thus found it historically unlikely that an enemy would release a corpse, contend that Jesus' followers did not have the means to know what happened to Jesus' body.

Jesus the histrocial person may have existed. But he was more of an icon and a symbol for the rebellion in israel during that time against the roman empires occuopation. But probably wherent to much importent during that time, he cant been to much of a trouble for the roman empire. If he was he would been mentioned in Roman writing and in Jewish writing. Romans always wrote down everything that was importent, they wrote about the rebellion in israel. Both the wins, losses and embaresment. They also wrote down the importent persons names at that time that where concidering dangerous or someone theyve heared much of. If he was such a importent person that he is potrayed in the bible then he certinly would be mentioned somehwhere in roman writing, but he havent.

He probably havent done any miracles and magic tricks. If so where he either good at doing easy medical treamtents, or placebo that later have been exagerated. Or like it says in the wikipedia article that stories about him doing miracles may also come from other older myths that he later been said been doing.

THe image of him was probably a mixture of myths, tales and legends. There have never existed a Jesus described in the bible. The character that he is based on have probably existed. But he were certinly a human and certinly just a religious activist which image have been exagerted during the elapse of time.

I mean there is also a myth about Levis that he never died that he still lives, even though there are evidence sayin that he died- even pictures. It have only been like 30 years since his death imagine what the story will be hundreds years of now?
