There wasn't one single piece of evidence adduced there. You wanna try again?!

Where are the historical accounts of the "events" of and about "Jesus? WHERE?? WHERE?? WHERE??

Where are the historical and scientific accounts of the "events" from which Jesus is simply an afterlog? The sun stopping? The talking serpent? the talking donkey? the endless genocide? The magical Egyptian magicians turning water into blood? Lazarus rising from the dead!? Noah riding a boat full of animals while the water rose over the mountain tops? <g> Jesus cursing the gentile woman, and stating His people were the Jews? Moses splashing blood on his thumbs and toes and ears in order to please "God" and to purify lepers? And on and on and on from absurdity to cruelty and back again! My, my, my!

Top Ten Signs You're a Fundamentalist Christian

evilbible.com


10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.

9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.

8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.

7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women, children, and trees!

6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.

5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.

4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving."


3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity.

2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.

1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christian.

We can take it one at a time, if you like! There were historians during the reign of Herod and they wrote voluminously. Show me one of them who was aware of the genocide of hundreds of babies to prevent "the baby Jesus" from living?!! Just show me ONE contemporary of "Jesus" who knew about Him!!
