The fact is that there is no CONTEMPORARY evidence that jesus ever existed. Given that he went around Galilee preaching to 5,000+, performing miracles, preaching at the local temples and upsetting the userer's tables, that's a bit odd, especially as we had all those Romans writing things down.

The first non-christard reference that occurs was by Josephus in 94/95 AD (60 - 61 after jesus popped his cloggs). The two passages that refer to jesus were little more than a sentence one of which has been shown to be a definite insert by early christards. Looks like they lied even back then. There's question marks over the second also. In addition, Josephus lived less that 30 minutes walk from where jesus lived and yet never mentions it. Josephus' references are secondary pieces of evidence questionable at best. What was Josephus' source? Who knows, he doesn't say.

The next reference doesn't occur until 106 AD in Tacitus. That's 87 years after jesus popped his cloggs. This source is thought to be genuine and not a christard insert. However, at best, this is a tertiary source. What was Tacitus source? Who knows, he doesn't say either. Again, this source amounts to a sentence or two.

So, the 3 sources amount to less than a paragraph between them, one of which even scholars dismiss as being a christard insert and non of which are contemporary with jesus.

This IS the evidence for the existence of jesus - apart from the babble.

Best Argument for Atheism - In your view.

by LAWHFol in

if crisis of conscience is one of the top watchtower doctrine killers, what is the coc of theism?.

i'd like to read a book, or other material that does the best job logically arguing for atheism.. i've not read any darwin, however it is my assumption that his focus is primarily on evolution, is this correct?

if you were to recommend one book or a few pieces of reading material, which do the best job of defending atheism, what would they be?.

Continuing in devils advocate mode...the thing that gives me pause in the can/cant prove God does exist argument, is that atheists are no happier than everyone else.

Over the centuries, christards have murdered between 100 and 200 million souls. That doesn't include those souls that they raped, pillaged, tortured and enslaved.

christinsanity is the most murderous cult the world has ever seen. Not bad for a cult that insists that it is about peace and love.

Other religtards have murdered countless millions too.

I don't know about you but I'm happier not being a religtard than being one and condoning its history.

Now Even JW Men Are Going To Die At The Big A

by OneFingerSalute in

so this weekend there was a part about not following jesus at a distance.

the speaker made a big point of stating that any baptized jw male who was not either appointed ms/elder, or at the very least "reaching out" actively, was in fact following jesus at a distance.

he said that the only way to live through the big a was to follow jesus closely.

My point is, a single book will not do it.

Some of us don't need a book at all. We just 'know' that there is no god. The idea is just so preposterous.

For some, 1,000 books will not be enough. They want to believe in god and that's the end of it.

The bulk of the people are somewhere in the middle. Some people need a range of books to be convinced. Some just need the right book.

Which ever camp you are in people, ffs, get on, read, accept that god doesn't exist. and lets get this farcical episode in Man's history out of the way so that we can move on.

In the years to come, future Man is going to look back on this part of Man's history and say, "They believed in what? A sky wizard that knew all, heard all and saw all! WHY?"

It's embarrassing.

Proof - of what?

by Doltologist in

a few weeks ago, these two jovies turned up on my doorstep.

being in a good mood that particular day, i told them that if they could prove that god existed, i'd become a jovie - and i meant every word.. they gave me two documents which they asked me read and told me that they'd be back in a week.

the first was called "was life created?

Clearly there are no assumed mechanisms in my argument.

Clearly there are assumed mechanism(s) in your argument. You quote a probability. That probability is based on the creation of a protein and given that the protein is assembled in some way, shape or form, a mechanism must be involved, even if it is randomness.

Anyone can Google and cut and paste without understanding. Obviously you are one such person.

If your stats are correct, then life cannot have evolved.

If life didn't evolve, then, the sky wizard did it.

It is obvious that the sky wizard doesn't exist.

Therefore, the stats quoted by you are incorrect and a mechanism exists where the stas are totally different and allow for the evolution of life within the known time frames.

The God Delusion. I read it in 2006, and it provided a good primer for at least helping me understand what atheism really is.

Atheism isn't a belief system. It is simply and merely a response to an assertion that god exists.

The problem with that is common sense is a heuristic, or rule of thumb. It varies from person to person relative to what part of the world they live in, their upbringing, etc. No sense is truly "common".

I would have thought that a sky wizard that knows all, see all and hears all was outside of the realms of common sense, wouldn't you?
