1. No, I do not believe these claims. As you have mentioned, those claims (and mine) are based on faith. It's my choice in what I put my faith into.

really?

well...

The problem is that we live in a day and age where everyone wants hardcore proof before believing anything. It's good to be cautious, but this is one of the things you simply have to apply faith.

Hebrews 11:1

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.


I can't really add to Razor's post, but I'll say this: religion is one of the few things that doesn't follow [scientific] logic. If you firmly will not believe something unless there's proof and logic to back it up, you're a hopeless case.

Actually, the people wanting proof are those desperately looking for a reason not to believe something they don't want to believe because they want am easier path.

your words, not mine. when the Emperor Hirohito or Kim Jong-Il make similar claims to divinity that Jesus made (if he even did), you "simply have to apply faith", and you're a "hopeless case" if you happen to think they're full of shit. it's not their fault for making such ludicrous claims... it's yours for not believing them.

2. Muslims have a similar, yet different set of beliefs. I'm not familiar with their entire set, though. I might do some research later to familiarize myself with it.

you haven't read the qur'an and the hadith? how negligent! they claim to be revelations from the same god you worship, and they came several centuries after the time of Jesus, so hadn't you better check on Yahweh's more recent instructions to you?
