Jesus wasn't a jerk because he never even existed. Christianity is bad mythology and there are fictional characters that offer much more wisdom and grace than Jesus ever did. And there are plenty that were around long before him as well. It all gets recycled and if you want your morality spoon fed to you, seek elsewhere for it.

You don't think? As if you of all people have a voice to debate with me, you don't even believe in God so you are the last person to know anything about how to deal or know how things get done. Common sense really. If you want to learn about mythology you go to someone who knows about it, same with history, you want to learn about animals you go to someone at a zoo or someone who studies them, you want to learn about a car you go to a car dealer, you want to learn about a house you go to a reality, you want to learn about an illness you go to a doctor.. see a pattern here? You don't post questions about God on a forum thats filled with non-believers, its a joke

course he could research things himself but he'll still have questions

What exactly is it that a preacher specializes in anyways?
What preacher? I never gave names. 'preacher' is a title FYI. he could study medicine, history, accounting who knows.

Can someone prove that jesus is real once and for all?

He says that anything you ask in his name will be granted. Can you grab another believer together ask in jesus's name for me to become a believer? That would be super.

Yes I agree about seeing a specialist about cars, history, medicine, and even religious history. But those things are real. They really exist. I am referring to a theologian. A god specialist. If god, prayer, angels, demons, and miracles can't even be proven to exist then how can one even attempt to be an expert in or even claim that there is a field for one to be an expert in?

It pisses me off when the media or even the government brings in the 'theologian' to give his opinion on morality with a group of real experts. As if he knows better. Its such bullshit. They even bring them in on matters of science! They deserve no more respect, in fact less respect, than those of us who live in reality and make decisions based on rationale thought and empathy.

People try to figure out all these ways to disapprove Jesus. They work so dilegent to find some small contradiction (what do you expect, its a book written by man) then the write up some paper, and hope that people will reconginze them as a rebel. This shit is getting old.

Mens Rea knows just as well as anyone that Sherdog is full on non-believers.

This leads me to believe Mens is just trying to get his niche in the crowd. *yawn*

I will tell you why I dont believe Jesus is the son of God, and I dont need to read the Bible to tell you why. Jesus was man, therefore he cant be God. I used my natural instincts and thoughts to come up with that. Didn't take anything that thought provoking, just my God given instincts.

He never said it'd be granted in a timely manner. Maybe not even in your lifetime.

Remember-- he never said "when"

My faith in your thesis, Mens Rea, is waivering

You have used the Lords name in the highest vain and you've earned admission to the land of the fallen angels. Where is it you choose to reside in Eden or swimming in the Lake of Fire and brimstone? You have bismirched your saviour and bit the hand that feeds you.
