The Last Templar
February 16, 2009 at 9:49 am
Did anyone see this? I thought it was OK for what it was, I obviously don't believe in any of the religious BS but I enjoy movies about that kind of stuff, they are interesting. One funny thing is while we were watching it (in case you dont know what it is... basically two people are searching for this long lost scroll that claims jesus was just a man which has been guarded by the catholic church) my aunt goes "well for that scroll to be true they'd have to discard the miracles by jesus that were seen and documented by many many people"... yeah, ok! many many people... haha. Which proves my point that if such a scroll existed nobody would believe it anyway!!

Can she offer even one example of documentation outside of the bible?
No... because it doesn't exist :p

Does she just believe in Jesus' miracles? i.e. he was the only one capable of performing them?
A man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?

lol, I don't even try to argue with her because you just can't. Plus I live in her house so I don't feel like its worth it.
I have no idea if she believes that, bozo, but I would assume so.

I don't want to be responsible for making you homeless BUT isn't it just possible you can ask whether she believes miracles have actually happened or are still liable to happen long after JC's demise?

Hehe, she said that she does believe miracles have happened (ie performed by jesus) and do happen even after "jc's" demise. I did not refer to him as JC however Next time!!!

So as not to get you thrown out, tell her bozo was asking quite howand why the non-jc, " later " miracles occur.
