Atheists interpret bible verses

How do you know Jesus said these things? Come on, guy, you've been asked this same thing like a hundred times and you're giving nothing.

How do you know there was a civil war in America? Or that Gandhi actually said what he said?  If you weren't there, then you depend on the testimony on others, whether it be written or spoken.

Totally different era, genius. The level and quality of documentation between Ghandi and Jesus could not possibly be more different.

Why am I not surprised that you are unaware of the newsreel footage of Gandhi? And I suppose you've never bothered to read his autobiography. And the American Civil War? You can't possibly be serious. There is a mountain -- a fucking mountain -- of documentary evidence of the war (including *gasp* photographs of the aftermath of various battles).

You're going to compare these things to the Gospel accounts?

How do you know Ulysses didn't fight the Cyclops? How do you know Zeus didn't come to earth as a swan and fuck Leda? How do you know George Washington didn't throw a dollar across the Potomac? 

Because they are outlandish stories. 

Civil war? There are photos for chrisake. Recordings of Gandhi. 

Your Jesus stories are in the realm of Zeus-as-swan fucking, not in the Gandhi realm. That's what you Christers are reduced to:

Swan fuckers.

Not favorably, one would hope.

I'll just wait here for the interview with jebus.   RAmen.

I didn't ask you about those things though. I asked you how you know what Jesus said. Try to keep up.

Well, in the case of the US Civil War, we have tonnes of physical and literary evidence.  We have battle sites that match the descriptions written at the time.  We have photographs of both the principals in the war and of common soldiers.  We have extant letters and diaries written by the people involves, documents of unimpeachable provenance. We have the written and recorded testimony of people who fought the war, planned the battles, and debated the legislation related to the war.  We have the bullets, rifles, cannon, bayonets, and uniforms worn by the soldiers.  We have the fortifications used by both sides.  We have some of the ships used in both battles and naval blockades.  We have such an astounding accumulation of direct evidence that this war took place that it is pure intellectual perversity to deny it.

In the case of Gandhi, we have what he wrote and what people wrote about him while he was alive.  We have his school records, family history, and details of his legal practice in South Africa.  We have letters and newspaper accounts of him written while he was alive.  We have living witnesses (for now) to some of the events of his life, including his assassination. We have him on FILM for fuxxake.

None of the above applies to Jesus.  Nanny nanny boo boo, you lose.
