    I dunnu, that Jesus was/is worshipped perhaps

    John 5;23 that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father, who sent him.

    Yes it seems that both the father and son have a territorial claim to be honored because they share the same insecurities about being irrelevant in time.

    Tater T= there are literally thousands of ancient copies of manuscripts OT copies, but you are correct that there are no originals.

    The reason could be that most traditions and stories ALL started orally before they could be written.

    Yep I really wish all the believers on here would go and actually do some proper research into the bible, maybe then we'd have more athiests on here which would be a damn good thing.

    Read these books:

    ... in Santa Claus, the tooth fairy, unicorns, the Loch Ness monster, yeti, extraterrestrial aliens, ESP, ghosts, and Elvis alive and well in Mudflap, Oklahoma.

    All of which are at least as, if not more than, plausible as believing the Bible is the true word of God.
