    did jesus exist?

    First of all, you will learn form the experts that the gospels are not gospels, they are historical records of actual events. Once this is understood you will soon know the truth about an historical Jesus simply by believing everything you read. The experts are the ones that claim Jesus is known...

    did jesus exist?

    You have read MORE than enough. Makes you much more difficult (and fun) to argue with. You two really should get a room so that we don't have to watch this.

    did jesus exist?

    He's not drawing his conclusion from that argument alone, he's made several other points that add up leading more and more people to question the existence of this Jesus character. You're making the straw man argument that he is, and coming from you it is of no surprise.

    did jesus exist?

    No one here has, it would be a stupid argument because no one single argument like that would lead to such a conclusion. Only you could come up with a straw man like that because that is your MO.

    Iran restricts "Western" social sciences

    Outlawing evolution from being taught in schools takes place in the US, just as crazy except more so considering the US was once a leader in scientific advancement.

    Pre-Easter and Post-Easter Jesus

    These are distinctly different, and always have been. Interestingly enough, the post-Easter Christ came first, the epistle writers were obsessed with a risen Christ, and much later the pre-Easter Jesus came about once the gospels were written. Differentiating the two show us how early...

    Is a Christian's salvation dependent on what Paul said?

    I'm not one to ask about what any one should be doing because I'm not religious, but we don't have anything written by Jesus or anything by anyone that met Jesus. What we do have are epistles and we have stories written by unknown authors many years after the fact if in fact there are any facts.

    Is a Christian's salvation dependent on what Paul said?

    It's Paul that says Jesus died for our sins. 1 Corinthians 15:3. To answer the first post, I would say yes, that a Christian's salvation, if there is such a thing, is dependent on Paul.

    Is a Christian's salvation dependent on what Paul said?

    Paul did claim to have revelations, visions of a risen Christ along with other apostles 1Corinthians 15:3-8, but Paul didn't write of his so called experience on the road to Damascus, that probably never happened. Acts doesn't appear to be reliable history. A man doesn't become blinded by a...

    There was a time in Europe when there was one religion, we refer to it as the Dark Ages.
