question to christians about jesus
type: item
description: I've always wondered how can so many christians place so much faith in a mystical man that lived 2000 years ago? What if jesus was just the greatest magician ever? I wouldn't think it to be too hard to trick and confuse people back then. People mistaked ordinary things for godly occurences all the time.

Back then? How do you know people mistaked "ordinary things" for "godly occurences"? The whole "Big Bang Theorey" is not an ordinary thing. Nor is the creation of life, on one planet, out of many.

We know because recorded history tells us that the ancients had a "god" for pretty much everything. The sun god, moon god, sea god, thunder god, lightning god...I can go on for days. Pretty much everything "ordinary" were seen as "godly occurences." We as a human race, even now, are discovering new things around us. cnc95fan wrote on Mon, 28 January 2008 10:27 Nor is the creation of life, on one planet, out of many.

description: Goztow wrote on Wed, 30 January 2008 06:07 You also believe that your father is your father without a DNA test, don't you? Same case. I am a Christian, though I must say that this is a bad anology if you're a Christian, too. If you meant it as a "He could very well not exist, because you have no conclusive evidence to prove it", then nevermind it being a bad anology. As for Jesus, it just seems too unlikely that he's a completely made up person. Whether he's the "son of God" and all that is up for debate I suppose, but I do beleive that a pretty much perfect person had once lived amongst us, and was persecuted for it. Even in todays society, perfection is unattainable through human form. Everyone knows this, even though some people wish to beleive that's not true, they still know it. Humanity has a habit of hating people better than them.

My father never told me that. Although it's possible he did when I was a baby in which case I don't remember it. Perhaps God did the same. I beg to differ. Humans have always wanted a purpose in and for their lives. If you think outside of it (like me) for instance, the outlook looks pretty bleak...you die and all that you lived for means nothing: all those clothes, houses, cars, jobs, passions, ambitions, and loved ones mean nothing but sh*t. Humans have over centuries always found a "purpose" for their lives to explain the emptiness they feel. This is why religion was and is present throught history. From the Harappans to the Egyptians to the Mesopotamians and so on...all had religion embedded within their cultures. I have talked to many religious people who say that that ability of humans to think of a "greater being" was "wired" into us by "God." This is a mistaken assumption that ignores history, science, and culture. Just as Jesus and Mohammad are the "big guys" today, there was a time when Horus, Zeus, Athena and all the gods upon gods ever invented were a dominant part of their respective societies. My laughs are saved for those who claim to know which god is "real" because recored history gives a much clear and more honest picture. People must understand that the human mind is weak...it is perhaps a flaw that comes with a highly evolved ability to reason. People seriously should think critically about the issue and look for other sources of reliable information IF they are ever in doubt. Which is why I unconditionally agreed with Muad's statements below. It makes perfect sense, fully logical and compliments recorded human history which everyone is very happy to ignore.

Personally I wish my mind wasn't so science driven so I could believe in the after life and all that. You may criticise their beliefs but it helps them live their lifes... I could not agree more with you on that, my friend. I feel the same exact way. I wish many times that I had not read that many books and I sometimes wish I could be a religious person. Religion creates a supernatural entity that we as humans can put our trust in so we can go on in our life while being one step-ahead of the uncertainties we may face. I can relate to this and give literally hundreds of examples. When I was a Christian and I got on an airplane, a small prayer to my (former) Savior Jesus Christ would alleviate any fears. It took the weight off my chest and gave me strength. I could actually relax! I am sure most religious people say a prayer when getting on an airplane. But the same experience as an Atheist was not so pleasant. When I got on an airplane in 2005, I felt...there is no words to really describe what or how I felt. I felt empty, on-my-own, and was not so confident. I just thought maybe we got a good pilot and the mechanics took care of the airplane. See what I mean? The difference? The incident does not prove "God" exists or not in anyway but it does highlight the weakness of the human mind and the necessity of religion as a means of survival. Eitherway, since my head is so full of Science, there is pretty much no chance of me going back to religion since it is physically/emotionally impossible due to too much knowledge. It feels weird now when I try t…

Another little fact I find interesting...It says in the bible that God creates man in his image, and essentially, programms each human uniquely to serve a purpose in his grand scheme. Which means when a robber kills an old lady for her purse, god made it so, to aid in his grand plan. Then that robber goes to hell fires. He predestines humans to be damned for eternity to blazing painful flames? So loving is he.

description: ok i dont know where this convo has gone to, but to answer the original question... Its not hard to believe in Jesus Christ even though he lived 2000 years ago. The gospels were written around 40-100 A.D, before the destruction of the temple. We know this, the original manuscripts match up with the ones we have today. Also we know that Jesus didn't perform things that people mistook as miracles of God because even the pharisees said he "did things by devils". also extra biblical writing proves that there were many that acnowledged what he had done but just not by God. Josephus wrote about him, Tacitus wrote about him. theres 10,000 manuscripts plus biblical manuscripts that talk about him and match up perfectly with each other. He fulfilled prophecy from the Old testament and thats why we can trust he is the Christ. so no only does history back him up but also secular history too. its not that hard to believe especially since we trust the writings of homer in the odessy even though that was written hundreds of years after! Everything we know about alexander the great was written 500 years after his death! If anything what the bible has to say about Jesus is the most historically accurate we have from anywhere close to that time period. thats why its not hard to believe in him

Made me alugh though As Jesus know what was gonna happen to himself and didn't stop it, you can argue that it was a act of suicide. Have you ever heard of the term, suicide by cop? Quote: Suicide-by-cop is a suicide method in which someone deliberately acts in a threatening way towards a law enforcement officer, with the goal of provoking a lethal response, such as being shot to death. Similar phrases include death by cop, suicide-by-police, and officer- (or police-) assisted suicide http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_by_cop So, as he know what was going to happen and infact welcomed it, this you could say, is the same thing.

description: Sorry, but that is faulty logic. Suicide by cop is NOT simply knowing the police will kill you, and allowing it to happen. This is where you deliberately take actions in which you know the police will respond by killing you. The suicide part comes in because of the ACTION you take, not in "waiting around to let it happen", because there is no waiting, there is a forced response by the individual to the police. With what Jesus did (and anyone else who simply waits around and wait for the inevitable to happen) is not suicide, but rather allowing himself to be sacrificed for a greater cause (whether people believe in the cause or not, this is what it was done for). Socrates did the same thing. He preached against the state, the state captured him and sentenced him to death. He accepted that sentence without attempting to escape (and according to Plato, he was given the chance to escape but chose to stay behind and face his captors). I don't know ANYONE who said that Socrates committed suicide by doing that.
