+Driftwood is really Jesus! WORSHIP THE ALL MIGHTY DRIFTWOOD!
-The name '''Jesus''' is simply the name "Joshua" translated first into Greek, then English. In Christian discourse, the name '''Jesus''' almost always refers specifically to '''Jesus of Nazareth,''' believed by Christian followers to be God's dad, who came to earth as a human c 2 AD.  However, God has recently revealed on His blog that [http://www.blogofthegods.com/about/god-of-the-old-testament/ Jesus is actually His nephew], not His son. <ref>http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%201:18-25;&version=31;</ref>  The life of Jesus is recorded in the Bible in the [[Gospel]]s of [[Matthew]], [[Mark]], [[Luke]], and [[John]]. According to the Gospels, Jesus died on the cross for our sins, and three days later he rose from the dead.
-The first time John saw Jesus, he said, "Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world!"

-==Other people in the Bible named "Jesus"==
-The author of ''Ecclesiastius,'' a book which Catholics include in the Douay Bible, but Protestants place in the Apocrypha, is known as ''Jesus of Sira.''
-==The Historical Jesus==
-Many atheists claim that there is no evidence of Jesus outside the Bible,{{fact}} but few scholars take this seriously.{{fact}}  Historical evidence for Jesus is comparable to that of many historical personalities such as Caesar, Alexander the Great, Attila the Hun, and Socrates, and many others.  Historical context indicates that as a 'rabbi' in judea, Jesus would have been married.  An explaination for his lack of a wife may be that he was a confirmed bachelor, and had twelve men to fufill his needs.  For example, Tacitus, the Roman historian, wrote about Jesus in 115 A.D. <ref>http://www.digisys.net/users/ddalton/evidence_of_jesus_outside_the_bible.htm</ref>, and Josephus, a Jewish historian who did not believe in Jesus' divinity, wrote about Him. <ref>http://www.christian-thinktank.com/jesusref.html</ref>. But that is considered among atheists as hoaxes created by christians.{{fact}}
