this was facetious (or maybe not?)
sky of mind
Could be, but why do we do as I did and assume the person will have to be a martyr?
Is it because, in spite of the words of peace, violence is at the core of Christianity?

And the point of golf is..? I mean, hitting a little ball with sticks across some man-made landscape till you eventually attempt to knock it (the little ball) into a hole in the ground! Why???

Have you heard the joke?

Four construction workers are sitting in a New York cafe, having breakfast before work. They get on the subject of Jesus.

The Irish immigrant says "Jesus was Irish. Everybody knows that. He never got married. He was always telling stories. He loved green pastures."

The Italian American says "You're crazy. Jesus was Italian. He talked with his hands. He had wine with every meal, and he worked in the building trades."

The black man says "No way. Jesus was a brother. He called everybody "brother." He liked Gospel. And he couldn't get a fair trial."

The Mexican says "Jesus was Mexican. No doubt about it. I mean, his NAME was Jesus!"

A young, orthodox yeshiva student stops at their table, and quietly says "I heard you gentlemen talking, and I'm afraid I have to inform you that Jesus was Jewish."

The men are a bit embarrassed. They were just joking around, and it seems that they offended the yeshiva student. As they're mumbling their apologies, the student grins and says "Yeah. He went into his father's business. He lived at home until he was 30. And he was sure his mother was a virgin, and his mother thought he was God."

The question started several years ago when some Politically Correct nut insisted on the term "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas". Conservatives blame this on us heathen unchristian Libruls.

S'truth. In front of the NH State House is a big, ugly Nativity scene with the world's whitest baby Jesus. The little spud is practically albino.

Wow. That's actually pretty cool. I wonder how much with the official story you have to stick too. I mean, it's under the category of mythology, right? I love religious mythology. Fascinating.

Well, historians have concluded that Christ was a real person, and he did start what is now one of the worlds biggest religious ideologies, whether you believe in his divine nature or not.

So do what I do in educational settings, talk about him the same way you would talk about any other religious founder (Mohamed, Buddha, and so forth)

Ah, yes. The politically correct nuts of the world should definitely be reviled. Life was so much better when we could use terms like "nigger", "kike", and "spic", not to mention "broad".

There is still some question about Christ being a real person or not. As I understand it the general agreement is that Christ very well could have been real.

As to him actually being a Messiah, that's under even more question, though making such a statement would undermine literally half of the planets historical civilization and as such very few scientists, or other relatively sane human beings would be willing to endure such condemnation and virtiol for daring to even suggest.

The thing that is being claimed is that because these things cannot be disproven, then they could just as likely have happened just as that book says it did.

"Messiah" just means "the annointed one." It doesn't proclaim anyone divine.

The problem, Sky, is "which book", because there is a lot of choice..............and most of them can't agree with one another. Plus the most common version was written by a multitude of people several hundreds of years after Jesus shuffled off this mortal coil.

http://www.nobeliefs.com/exist.htm

People still can't agree what it was they saw fly into the Pentagon a few years ago, how can you expect accuracy after a few hundred years ? Let's not even talk about political expediency and personal bias entering into Paul or John's scribbling, quill poised over parchement, trying to remember what had happened a few years back, and assuming that all that wine (there was a lot of water, and a good party trick like that, well, waste not, want not...) hasn't clouded the clarity of the events...... wink.gif
