There's nothing to be worried or scared about....Firearms are more then "Death Dealers", they are tools, a hobby, a way to take out frustration, hone in one hand-eye coordination, steadying you hands/grip, and teach you to respect power. Firearms are great tools and learning to use one can provide you with a advantage if anything happens for survival or defense. Its only dangerous in uninformed hands. Ive owned a 22LR and a 12g since I was 6 years old and I was taught how to tear down and clean it, load it and fire it, I learned that with the power it has it needs to be respected and only used with full intent.
Most people think of guns as "Weapons to kill", they have given my country freedom and the power to unite...
Yes I know all that and I do know how to use a gun.And yes I taught all my kids how to use them as well.

I was making the case that the Jesus who became regonized as a prophet by Islam, the son of God to Christians and the son of Mary to the rest of the world; should be, even by those who do not believe in God, be recognized as having walked the face of the earth. Without that even being accepted this entire topic of discussion is entirely worthless.
You made a great case for that in my opinion,and yes I agree wholeheartedly.
Otherwise we have the whole donut debacle again.
As to Luke, you would certainly know much more of that than I would. I would be interested in learning more. I know he is to have authored Luke and acts. Additionally, ive read where some of the epistles and letters were written by Paul? or Peter?
As I recall Luke,Peter, and Paul co-wrote from Acts to Philemon.It's basically a series of letters between the 3,Except Philemon which is a letter to Paul from Timothy.It gets more convoluted than a road map to Brazil at some points.
I know the rest was all written between 200 and 300 AD and the Gnostic gospels written much later; but, so much controversy with those, that even as a believer I cant take them to seriously.
Yeah I know what you mean.It's like suddenly somebody spiked the wine or something.It's like being a fan of pro-wrestling in a way.

What does quantify mean? I looked it up, as i have a few dozen other words mentionrd in this thread, yet i still dont get the context in which is was used earlier...
Thought i had a solid understanding on the english language, turns out i dont.
Live and learn.

Above is a quantifiable statement.

Actually fishermen back then were wealthy.So were stonemasons which is probably what Christ was and not a carpenter.

EDIT : AS FOR THE WHOLE PROSTITUTE THEORY.
If you mean (Mary Magdalene) sorry but there's tons and tons of proof she was never a prostitute.That I know of back then the only real outcast would have been Luke.
Is there actually one scripture in the bible speaking of Jesus actually doing ANY work?

He gathered lost children, saved souls, ressurrected the dead, made the blind see, made the crippled walk, cured the sick. After that he was fucked over by his homeboy, humiliated, tortured and executed for no good reason... what more do you want?
My understanding is the bible skips through the majority of jesus' life and gave us a cliff notes version of it.

Yes at some point one needs to ask seriously not like havent spent trillions not seriously and even more killend seriously.
care to rewrite that response? I'm to stupid to know what in the hell you are trying to say?

What did that man say to you, to necessitate such a high school level response? Up the page, he was one person that asked, kindly, about having a discussion (one that you all have asked for repeatedly) and leaving the insults out.
So he gets that crap as a thank you.?

The Flavius Josephus writing on Jesus has been thoroughly debunked by biblical scholars. Reputable scholars don't even reference it anymore. It was a forgery.

I would be more impressed if the position argument you're using wasn't from the Freedom From Religion Foundation.
(Consider how this community gets inflamed when some ANTZ group pops out one of their "vaping is worse than smoking" studies. Get what I'm puttin' down?)
Sources with either an unbiased involvement in the research or, better yet, a source inside Biblical scholardom about questioning the validity of Josephus' writings would have more meaningful impact.
Not saying that I am 100% convinced that Josephus is accurate or reliable, nor that anyone should be.

(edited to clarify position; see strikethrough and red text)

You're doing it too.

No one came in here to take you guys on unilaterally. YOU GUYS called me out. So your self satisfied smear is total bullshit.
Does someone take a gigantic shit in your Wheaties every morning, or are you just so fucking miserable that you feel compelled to drag as many people into your misery as you can so you can feel better about yourself?

It was nice and civilized in here for a while, then you show up and, BOOM! Fecal matter flying everywhere...

Some people speculate that Christ went to India...it is said he sent Thomas to India to start a a ministry there...and supposedly it the oldest continual Christian ministry...it is not inconcivable that Christ decided to follow a spiritual path and studied with the great spirtiual traditions of the ancient world the zorisastrians of persia and from there to the yogis of India.or perhaps the mystery schools of eygpt....every year we discover more and more that the ancients traveled much farther than we ever imagined....

after all the Budhha didn't just appear enlightened.....he spent many years studying with the sahddus of India before he sat down underneath the bo tree. and it was common for poor muslims from as far away as India who would spend years traveling to mecca on haj...Christ could have been mendicant monk who traveled to seek knowledge.

Just out of curiosity, why are you always running?
Doesn't seem like the best way to go about getting fucked.
