I once saw David Copperfield in a large concert hall. He blew my fucking mind. At one point he even flew out over the audience. NO ONE had any clue as to how he did it. Guess what, that night I prayed to David Copperfield and he now lives inside my heart. He doesn't say anything to me, but I talk to him all the time and I know he loves me. The best part is when he helps me do stuff. Like, yesterday I couldn't find my wallet all day, but when I finally gave my problems over to David, he showed me my wallet when I sat down on the couch to watch TV... there it was!! Even better - this one time, my brother was having a graduation party and it was going to be outside. So I prayed to David Copperfield that it wouldn't rain ........... AND IT DIDN'T! So yeah, I would totally get on board with Jesus if I saw him doin some sweet miracles. That's how I roll. Now of course I know that that was just a hypothetical question and that jesus is just an ancient myth, but if you'd like to know the love and peace of David Copperfield, I'd love to answer your questions and lead you on your way to REAL happiness.
I'd think he's a cool guy who knows how to partay
I don't got no phonics I don't need to english
But would jesus pass the joint? Puff puff give...

Given the Christian assumption of Jesus as God, performing "real miracles" would be proof to support God's existence.(March 11, 2014 at 11:30 am)Fromper Wrote: How can you say that there were miracles back then? The wording of the first post in the thread didn't act like you were treating the miracles as a hypothetical. You acted like they were an assumption. They're not. This is like asking "If you were there on the Death Star, and Darth Vader choked you without physically touching you, would you believe in The Force?" It's a loaded question with only one correct answer: "Yes, when faced with indisputable proof of the impossible, I would believe the impossible", which is exactly the same as the only correct answer to your question. And it's equally relevant to your question.
That's MISTER Godless Vegetarian Tree Hugging Hippie Liberal to you.

Out of curiosity, you listened to Him speak, you saw him heal, you witnessed the miracles, etc. How would you of reacted? So it's all about the miracles. Interesting. And it's "How would you have".
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

So, I suppose in your religion this would be considered apostate viewing material? Will you get disfellowshiped if you're caught watching it? (March 11, 2014 at 11:56 am)Bad Writer Wrote: Shhhh! You're going to blow this poor fellow's mind! Were I feeling mean, I'd say that it would take a miracle to hit a target so small.
