-----------------
No. He may not even really have lived. History doesn't know.
Saying this imagined guy "resurrected" is specious, and that
somehow he did so "in all our hearts and minds" is laughable
sophistry! You don't know any such thing, you just WISH for
it to be true, and that's NOT the same as knowing, nor is it
even the same as faith!

Why do you clowns recite mystical crap phrases over and over
to try to get attention?

-----------------
That's just another crap phrase people recite because they might
wish it so, but "love" doesn't conquer ANYTHING, that isn't what
it does, in the first place, and many things can destroy love quite
easily, torture, guns, affairs, minor squabbles, egotism, etc.

There is evidence that YOU believe in some guy History has no solid
record of, and which, like an evil rumor crossing a room, has been
bouncing around for two millenia getting distorted. But nothing more.

First we kill all the amateur lawyers.

I don't think that Jesus meant that you could seperate the two,
he just didn't tell you because he expected you to understand what
he wa saying, your version is just YOUR ignorant wish-fulfillment!!

Of course there is "evidence".
Ask any believer.
His/her answer is evidence ther is "god"
created and residing inside his/her mind. -- L.

-----------------------
Sure they are, they're ambiguous as all hell! For example, if the
greatest commandment is to love your neighbor as you would wish to
be loved, then why not begin to have sex with your neighbor? That
IS what you wish she'd do to you!?!! And how many cheeks do you
turn if someone is beating you to death? It gets totally crazy when
examined, folks, it was intended to confuse slaves out of attacking
their masters, not as a moral code!!
