A Jesus hypothetical
December 15, 2012 at 7:13 pm (This post was last modified: December 15, 2012 at 7:14 pm by Gooders1002.)
Quote:Note: This is HYPOTHETICAL by this definition. This is not factual or has any evidence on it, its a 'What if?'. So if I get any person asking for evidence I will hunt them down and slap them, you have been warned. 

A video got me thinking (link below) and I thought up this hypothetical.
Assuming all the following statement was true and 100% proven with empirical evidence:
That Jesus was homosexual/bisexual
Would, Christians, your view on homosexuality change?

I would like to know your thoughts.
Don't say he is not because we don't know that and there no evidence either ay and is a hypothetical.
Also other theists could you tell me also just swap Jesus for your prophet/savior/figurehead e.t.c of your religion.


video that got me thinking
"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

Let's make it better: what if Jesus was a gay abortion doctor?

It'd bring a whole new meaning to "high and mighty."

A man named Harry McCall wrote an article entitled Jesus The Homosexual: The Evidence from the Gospels, published on the Debunking Christianity blog that argues that Jesus in the gospels engaged in homoerotic acts.

When it comes to the bible, I don't dismiss anything anymore unless I carefully examine arguments for this or that position. Because often I come to accept a position on something or another, which I previously considered lunacy.
