Line 50:
Line 50: − Just because a book written almost 2,000 years ago says he was god doesn't make it correct. Do you believe any other religious text on its supernatural claims? No doubt Jesus existed, and no doubt he was a good person, even a first class revolutionary, but he wasn't a deity. The most likely explanation for biblical supernatural events is that they are made up by people who wanted to be associated with Jesus because they admired him, and then these events were written down as true events. Let's put it this way. Someone wrote a comic about Batman 40 years ago. His exploits have now been copied by two movie directors over the last 50 years, adding details, taking characters, exanding story lines from the comic books. There is almost a cult following of Batman. In a few hundred years someone might unearth a text about this Batman character and think he was a real crime fighter. --[[User:stubbstarbuck|User:stubbstarbuck] 16:54, 28 June 2007 (EDT)+ − − :Hah hah. That may be true, but when you consider that the Bible is made up of writings written thousands of years apart, and yet all coincide to point to one Messiah, with no contradictions... You can't argue with anything like that. [[User:DebateKid|DebateKid]] 13:08, 30 June 2007 (EDT) − − :Hmmmm... ...especially since the Apostles conferenced with each other and for a thousand year period in European history (which I shall call "The Dark Ages," any heretical version of the "story" was nixed and its writer burned. What about the council of Nicea? Granted, if the authors of the books of the Bible hadn't shared notes and the Books were '''completely accurately''' preserved you might have a point.[[[User:Cthx]]
