(December 1, 2012 at 3:47 am)The truth Wrote: No detective went back in time to refute the five hundred witnesses so this statement is only a theory based on opinions(I get your since of humor). Please atheist show me facts that chrisitanity is false. Its proven that history shows us a empty tomb. Its proven that they never found christ body. Please people make this cite interesting. keep your if's to your self!

Paul didn't just see a vision did you read the story? The men next to him also experienced this visitation. They hurd the voice of Christ. Illusions does not allow three people at the same time to here the same exact vey words. It often effects the eyes not the ears.

Oh my god, he just doesn't get it! You don't have to go back in time to specifically refute ridiculaous claims that are hearsay to begin with! Every time we crush his evidence, he just shifts the burden of proof! /rant

Apparently "goofy remarks" = "arguments I can't refute" to this guy.

I kind of had the feeling that in most cases he has no idea what he is writing about.


This statement:

Confirmed that.

Um, Jesus wouldn't have been a "person in a rat hole" if he existed as a magic being like the gospels say he did. If he really was healing people, stoping rocks in mid air, being raised from the dead (not to mention the resurrection of hundreds of others mentioned in one of the accounts) etc, he would have been front page news.

"Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful" - Edward Gibbon (Offen misattributed to Lucius Annaeus Seneca or Seneca the Younger) (Thanks to apophenia for the correction)
'I am driven by two main philosophies:
Know more about the world than I knew yesterday and lessen the suffering of others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you' - Neil deGrasse Tyson
"Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it." - Mark Twain
