    There was a big thing on this on Discovery Channel, they had a bunch of Harvard, Emory, etc Professors all agreeing on these events b/c they have records dating back to pre crucifixion and there is no mention of Jesus.

    So what do you think about that? In that case Jesus was never crucified, which would make the bible incorrect...
    not trying to get into an argument but i can give the christian perspective on this:

    there is historical evidence a man named jesus was crucified, its called the bible. if you can't trust historical documents, written by people, without video or photos then who says george washington was ever president???

    so if i get together with a bunch of my friends and decide that the us constitution isn't something i care to follow does that mean that it is incorrect too??




    just debating on the issue...not taking sides, i could give 2 shits less...i'm alive and thats all that matters...just interesting to see different sides from believers and non-believers alike as well as the cultural diversity in here...kinda cool if you ask me.

    great post, but then again is there a bible as old as the roman records that have been found and dated? i don't think so. jesus was a common name so its not like just one jesus was crucified i'm sure many were, but as dipicted in the bible there are no roman records to back it. like i said they already did the research on this and as i said before there is a possiblilty it isn't in any roman records that have been found. that the romans wanted it erased from histroy basically.

    the bible is built on faith not facts, it was written by man. if we took the bible word for word we would still be in medevil times and incest would be common.

    no it's not based on faith... yeah it was written by men... the men who God chose to write it.... there are to many things that fit with the bible to this day for it not to be true... try reading it... i promise you'll find stuff that points to everything happening in the world right now...

    its not based on faith really? what is it based on??? i have read many parts of the bible... but reading it and trying to based religion on reality is false... its like a sunday morning televangelist healing retards. like i said before what is the copyright of your bible? do you read the king james version of the bible?

    I've read the entire old testament and most of the new testament...skipped the mumbo jumbo like most of the psalms and such...not something i care to base my life on. i'm chuck, not the bible...i'm going to live as chuck and chuck is going to experience all that life has to offer...even if the bible did point to it.

    but its cool man, i respect your beliefs, i just don't share them
