  If the historical Jesus was simply human, would YOU be a Christian ?

  by EdenOne in

  i've been reading a lot lately about the historical jesus, and the latest archaeological findings and what a comparative, horizontal, reading of the 4 canonic gospels actually do tell us about the historical jesus and his teachings.

  pick your side, but let me ask you this, because that's the core question i have been asking myself lately:.

  if the historical jesus wasn't the son of god, but simply a human prophet with no previous super-human existence, hence, merely the "son of man", with very appealing teachings, but no previous super-human existence, hence, not "son of god" as we commonly believe as jw's, would you still be a christian?

  If the Jesus that is supposed to have existed said the things in the bible then yes, he had some form of mental disorder. I mean Imagine the guy on the corner we see holding signs saying that "the end is coming". We look at the guy like a lunatic and we hope he gets picked up by the police... that is who Jesus was, the guy standing on the corner with a sandwich board saying the end is near.

  However I can garauntee that people would still follow him...

  Is my clinging on to a belief in a Creator doing me any harm?

  by KateWild in

  2. beliefs

  i use the word clinging, as i feel that is what i am doing.

  as far as my knowledge of science, namely chemistry is concerned, i am satisfied there is evidence of a creator.

  i am happy to believe this.

  Kate if I may ask this question... and please do not get mad.

  Why do you care if there is a GOD if the individual obviously does not care about your day to day activities sufferings or that of your family. Not being mean here, I would just really like to hear your reason
