Jesus never existed.

[LionheartVIII]

How do I say this inoffensively? If I had to choose to believe you that there is nothing that even alludes Jesus' existence or the larger historical community that says he does...well, sorry, but you can't win unless you've got some interesting new proof that everyone else seemed to miss.

Would you like to show me where this mythical allusion to Jesus is? I have looked and looked, but I have yet to find anything that alludes to him. If you have proof otherwise just post an article and prove me wrong.

Was this rehearsed? Are you a multiple account? I can't believe that two seperate people would have the exact same debating strategy to pick out the smallest typo in a debate and use it as content for their argument

.

This accusation seems a bit insane to me. I think you know that me and Nin' are different people and you are just saying this in an attempt to discredit me. Also if it were Nin' he would have written 30 posts worth off of what you said.

I'm afraid that argument does not work for the otherside as Jesus not existing is not a generally accepted fact and any historian that denies his existence needs a pretty good deal of proof to counter all the evidence that has been collected supporting his existence.

Again this "evidence" that has been collected to support this existance of Jesus Christ actually doesn't exist. That is why I am skeptical to as why so many mindless zombies believe that he exists and that is why I made this thread. Your problem is that you assume way to much. You assume that there is evidence, you also assume that because it is widely accepted by historians that he exists.

I'm gonna have to go with Jintatsu on this one. And who, praytell, are these "quite a few" historians? Because as far as I know, it's pretty much agreed by people that Jesus existed.

As far as you know? As far as you know Jesus's life was very well documented, and there is physical evidence supporting his existance.

Look, you just admitted you don't give a shit about what anyone else says and will ignorantly believe Jesus didn't exist in where this case there actually is proof that the MAN does [as in the actual person].

Sir, you just have proven to me how bad your reading comprehension is. Ok, before I get to mad at your failure to understand the english language, let me ask you this. Can you show me this evidence of his existence? If so show it to me, and your argument will become valid. Otherwise, quite babbling on about how I don't care about other people's assumptions.

So what's the point in continuing this "debate" if all you're going to do is sit there and say the same thing over and over? Seriously dude, this is just getting stupid and there's no debate at all.

Clearly I have to say the same thing over because you won't understand it or research it. You go on and on about how there is proof that Jesus existed, yet you never provide it.

Me: "I have done my research, and I have come to the conclusion that Jesus probably didn't exist because of the lack of proof behind his existance."

You: "NO EVIDENCEZORZ WUT R U TALKIGN ABOUT? THERE IS TONS OF EVIDENCEZORZ ITS PROVED".

Me: "Nah dude no evidence".

You: "STOP REPETINGZORZ YOUR ARGUMENT THERE IS EVIDENCZORZ".

Me: "ok show me your evidence."

Validate your argument by showing me your this proof of Jesus.

Are you serious? We need to find the body of a man that has been dead for 2000 years?

Validate your argument by showing me your this proof of Jesus.

Plenty of real documentation has been brought up in this forum. It isn't up to a bunch of teenagers and twenty-somethings to find you a dead body. This isn't Scooby Doo. We aren't Shaggy and the gang.

Agreed. It's alot more widely accepted that Jesus the man existed, and it'd be lovely to see direct proof that he didn't. Also, I'd like to point out something: what does it MATTER if he didn't? Assuming for a minute that he didn't exist, the very idea of him was enough to start a major religion and effectively change the world (for good or for worse).

I like this. If, by some chance, this figure was invented and most of the primary sources were duped (unlikely), then that throws most of ancient history out the window. If you want to make a case against a Biblical figure, there are plenty that are harder to find. Moses, for example.

The idea to go after Jesus feels like an anti-Christian sentiment. There are much bigger historical mysteries.
