http://www.jesusracing.com.au/page?pageid=a0K90000000ANTqEAO These people are coming to give a talk at the school tomorrow, any suggestions that won't get me fired? I find it hard to imagine Jesus racing a V8 Ute...

Christians make much of Jesus fulfilling bible prophecy which proved that he was the messiah. For example he was born in Bethlehem, rode into Jerusalem on an ass, cleared the money lenders out of the temple and so on. All of these events in his life are used as evidence of Jesus fulfilling...

Is it possible for people to agree there is one God? Can people give up partisanship enough to agree that God is far away somewhere, in a place we can not go, and that God does no come here and that we can not know His name? Would the world be a better place if we could?

Here is a website that offers a comparison of the two historical figures. http://carm.org/religious-movements/islam/comparison-between-jesus-and-muhammad

"The Word"/Reason/Wisdom, not "Jesus" in the usual sense, is The Way to Salvation/God the real lovers of God do not belong to any particular religion, for all the religions have the same fundamental teachings on the nature of God & how one becomes like God in respect to wisdom, love, joy, etc...

A topic spawned from another thread. The person flatlines, doctors work to bring the person back, he recovers with memories of meeting Jesus. Evidence of God's existence?

"Jesus loves all of us, even those that hate him..." This was posted on Facebook by an acquaintance of mine, and I wondered: "Does anybody really 'hate' Jesus?" I'm a skeptic and polyatheist, but I hate Jesus no more than I do any other deity or fictional hero: Thor, Zeus, Krishna, Santa...

So, what is the evidence that a man named Jesus (Joshua), son of Joseph, actually existed? The New Testament was not written by him. The earliest Gospel was written decades after he supposedly died. So what evidence is there that he actually ever existed? He could be just a made up nobody.

I was reading a few alleged descriptions of Jesus by some Roman officials. http://www.thenazareneway.com/likeness_of_our_saviour.htm Most descriptions are a hair away from full blown man crushes. Looks like Jesus was the Nazarene version of Brad Pitt. Why would god make his son the best...

goodpersontest.com See how good you are compared to God's standard. ”(Heb 9:27) And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:” ”(Rev 20:15) And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” ”(Joh 14:6) Jesus saith unto...

Didn't know whether to put this here, or in Social Issues and Current Events. Then I decide it was funny (and slightly tragic also) and I'm not really asking a question just sharing it with you all, so I'm putting it here. Jesus will return by 2050, say 40pc of Americans The English...

After reading Warren's The Purpose Driven Life, I came across this bit on page 43: "One day you will stand before God, and he will do an audit of your life...before you enter eternity." Next paragraph. "First, 'What did you do with my Son, Jesus Christ?' God won't ask you about your religious...

I'm just starting this thread so as not to further sub-hijack another thread where I called R.G. Price's article "Jesus Myth: The Case Against Historical Jesus" a piece of crank scholarship. I'm just going to go through his points, in order. It'll take me a while. If other people chime in, I...

Seems like all the biblical scholars and skeptics are studying this and their approach is from the investigators point of view and from a historical view, from a district attorneys, point of view or a court of law point of view and the man who put this together is a journalist and was a...

Some days I think about it, and think there was probably some guy named Jesus, and he was quite a talker, got a lot of followers and a bunch of disciples together, and they went around preaching and such. One day he was captured and hung up on a cross, as they tended to do with rabble-rousers in...

Just in time for Easter :rolleyes: Is Face of Jesus Christ Revealed? You see, that right there's what we call proceeding from a false premise. Fortunately, at least one person in the video in that article got it right when they said they doubted it was the face of Jesus because the Shroud of...

Someone brought up in another thread the genealogy's of Jesus in the bible being different between Mathew and Luke gospels and I remember reading about this from Rudolf Seiner "According to Steiner, the two boys were only separated in age by 6 or 9 months; they grew up near each other, one in...

His coming as a thief with a new name Rev.3:12, it is written that "I will write on him My New Name". Maybe coming as a thief means, its going to seem like his stole a new body with a new name? with a Walk-in process perhaps or not. Although, what do you think his new name will be? Edit: i...

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/bizarre/2859895/Elton-John-claims-Jesus-was-gay.html JESUS was GAY - according to the gospel of SIR ELTON JOHN. The singer makes his controversial claim about the Lord in a new US interview that will enrage America's bible belt. Elton, 62...

The other day I was talking to someone about their views on December 21st, 2012. He told me that he believes that Jesus will return because of what Jack Van Impe told him on his show the day prior. Apparently, what we've been told about the "Mayan Prophecies" is all a lie because the Government...

:confused: "Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation" I presented the verse above to a supposed Christian that I've known for a while. He responded "not even Jesus knows the date of his return. He is standing at the door waiting to walk through" He never even...

Any time I ask a Christian what this statement means, they "explain" it and then it makes even Less sense than before. Maybe they've memorized what they consider to be an answer. Some will say, "Jesus asked God , "why have you forsaken me?" (when they're supposed to be the same diety), some say...

I responded to this assertion by stating that there is no evidence outside of the Bible to support the resurrection and Kathy replied She also provide alink that she "trusts to be a reliable source of info." . . . . . . . . . . . . I figured that many of the regulars here have already...

For people who have studied the history of Christianity and the Bible, particularly the New Testament, it should be no surprise that most (all?) of the earliest Christians believed that the Second Coming of Christ would occur very soon -- in their very lifetimes, in fact. This is clear in the...

I love the blond Jesus. There's just something so holy-looking about a handsome young man with wavy blond hair, blue eyes and a bathrobe. God: made in the image of man since 10,000 BC.

This is kind of amusing, and I thought people might enjoy it: 2Tx5DBWhDLk

I was discussing religion with a Christian friend and coworker yesterday, and he brought up Jesus. This is usually problematic for me, because while I may be able to argue against the existence of God, I have little knowledge about the New Testament and the life of Jesus of Nazareth, and I told...

In this week’s eSkeptic magazine, Tim Callahan wrote a critique of Zeitgeist part 1 — The Greatest Story Ever Garbled by Tim Callahan (the link is in the article below) Acharya has already responded to Callahan's article - Skeptic Mangles ZEITGEIST (and Religious History)...

Christians are wont to claim there is as much evidence for Jesus Christ as many historical figures, and more than many. In response, I am developing a argument that there is more evidence for the existence of dragons than anything godly, be it Jesus, his grow-back-your-cherry mummy, or the...
