Evidence, Miracles and the Existence of Jesus [View all] laconicsax Apr 2012 OP

You should fix "Existance" before the grammar cops brand you a "moran". nt Speck Tater Apr 2012 #1

Thanks. That'll teach me to post without proof-reading. laconicsax Apr 2012 #2

The problem with the evidence is the miracles. zeemike Apr 2012 #3

You're taking the Gospels at face value. laconicsax Apr 2012 #6

And that is true of everything including what happened in this century. zeemike Apr 2012 #10

Got it--questioning the historicity of Jesus is the same as Holocaust denial. laconicsax Apr 2012 #14

I did not say that zeemike Apr 2012 #19

You made the comparison, own up to it. n/t laconicsax Apr 2012 #22

No, let us ignore the miracles. longship Apr 2012 #7

Well I know what I am in for. zeemike Apr 2012 #8

"All the records"??? Nobody claimed that. longship Apr 2012 #11

How much of the Roman records survived time? zeemike Apr 2012 #13

Well, we are talking across each other here longship Apr 2012 #18

But when you get down to the nitty gritty zeemike Apr 2012 #20

Archaeology longship Apr 2012 #21

Really?...you know that? zeemike Apr 2012 #29

Meh. Warren Stupidity Apr 2012 #4

It looks like you skipped the conclusion. laconicsax Apr 2012 #5

I couldn't get past the quote I cited as it is preposterous. Warren Stupidity Apr 2012 #12

Suit yourself. n/t laconicsax Apr 2012 #16

Don't be so sure on that either. zeemike Apr 2012 #17

So Mary was artificially inseminated by a computer from the future? Warren Stupidity Apr 2012 #24

No I am trying to point out to you that what you think is impossible may not be. zeemike Apr 2012 #26

you need to provide evidence for your claims. Warren Stupidity Apr 2012 #30

I am not making any claims zeemike Apr 2012 #31

My claim is that there is no evidence for 'miracles'. If you have seem please provide it. Warren Stupidity Apr 2012 #37

Well the words "may be possible" should have informed you zeemike Apr 2012 #39

Where's the evidence for this assertion? rug Apr 2012 #9

Is it my responsibility to cite sources for someone else's claims now? laconicsax Apr 2012 #15

If you posted it as a true statement, yes. rug Apr 2012 #27

I made no claim; I am under no obligation. laconicsax Apr 2012 #38

It's generally acknowledged. For instance: muriel_volestrangler Apr 2012 #23

"but there aren't many. When one says it, it's notable." Warren Stupidity Apr 2012 #25

The reasons for the majority aren't relevant muriel_volestrangler Apr 2012 #34

"a small but growing cadre" is a far cry from a majority, let alone a vast majority. rug Apr 2012 #28

The "small but growing cadre" are those who say he didn't exist muriel_volestrangler Apr 2012 #32

Edit. I stand corrected. rug Apr 2012 #33

I think you need to re-read it. n/t trotsky Apr 2012 #35

You're right. I misread it. rug Apr 2012 #36
