Sigh. I gave it 20 min. We basically got two "arguments" in that time. Crying about asking questions to the faithful in the parking lot rather than academics AS THOUGH THEY MEANT IT AS SERIOUS ANALYSIS, when obviously it was just to show the ignornace of your average follower... and an OUT OF CONTEXT argument from silence. Writing 80,000 words on a specific subject and not mentioning *vast significant swathes* is CHALK AND CHEESE from obtuse random ommission.
Infantile, I was waiting for more.

Just saying "Well, they didn't write Julius Caesar's biography until later!" doesn't explain why nobody writes about Jesus until at least 40 years after he flew off to heaven or whatever. Nobody can deny Caesar existed, Jesus was made up.
Strong argument? ...( 2 months ago by JTX1)
Strong argument? All he did was talk in circles and say that nobody can prove that other Christ-like figures existed, which doesn't answer the question of "The 40 year gap" or even if Jesus was real or not. Hell, even calling it a "40 year gap" is giving Christianity the benefit of the doubt, because even as this guy says the gap may have been much longer. But, just because you can't prove some other Jesus wannabe really existed doesn't somehow prove that Jesus did.

Even if you didn't even answer the question you supposedly devoted 33 minutes to answering. Hell, introducing the actual film and then the Penn and Teller segment greatly hurt your own argument. Penn was able to undo your 33 minutes in like 45 seconds.

And of course these Christians have never heard of mithra and the other gods, because if they had they'd realize that their guy is just one of many similar fictional characters. Knowing of mithra and the other gods would allow them to step back and say "Wait a minute. What makes MY guy more "real" than these other fake guys?"
Why not ask god to ...( 2 months ago by mimogi2004)
Why not ask god to show you the proff?? ask him if he's really there. I know a guy who became a christian after years of telling peopel he dident bealive. simply by asking god to show him that he's real by changeing the weather. He swears, as soon as he askd the sky started to change. There was no sign of rain. I have my own storys of why too but Faith is somthing eather have or you dont want to have. that's what it comes down to friends.

This guy has a lot of nerve accusing people as "lazy" when he is looking for supernatural answers to questions already (most of them) answered by mankind. His laziness is overbearing as he attacks views more educated and researched than his own. While people arguing against this man most certainly have an understanding of the bible, he has no understanding of the opinion he argues against. Why is this?
Laziness.

You are a 'Fundamental Christian' that believes in Christian Ideals that only go as far back as 1517. Anything beyhond that makes you either Roman Catholic OR Eastern Orthodox. And even then Martin Luther would most likely have you burned at the stake for your 'heretical' beliefs.
The 'core' beliefs are only the beliefs of any one particular Christian sect and those beliefs differ GREATLY even amongst 'fundamentalists'! The truth of Christianity is that it's a hodge-podge of contradictions!
