Chris you can't prove that the Jesus written about in scripture really existed. As a matter of fact there is proof positive in the scripture itself that it is entirely contrived. explain this: "Blessed are those that have seen and believed more blessed are those that have not seen and still believed" That statement anticipates a time when the faithful would be trembling for a lack of Christ. It is a pacifier and contrived and would have never have been written if there had been a real biblical Christ.

Dear Mr Land, The choice to judge rather than to know is the cause of the loss of peace. You have no idea of the tremendous release and deep peace that comes from meeting yourself and your brothers totally without judgement. Judgement always imprisons because it separates segments of reality by the unstable scales of desire. You who would judge reality cannot see it, for whenever judgement enters reality has slipped away. No one who loves can judge, and what he sees is free of condemnation. You do not know this yet- that comparison must be an ego device, for love makes none. Specialness always makes comparisons. Your specialness is established by a lack you think you see in another. Your specialness is maintained by searching for, and keeping in clear and constant sight, all lacks in others your belief in your specialness can perceive. Learn this, and learn it well, for it is here that delay of your happiness is shortened by a span of time you cannot realize. Mr Land, you never hate your brother for his sins, but only for your own. And so, when you have forgiven yourself, and when you have remembered who you are, you will finally bless everyone and everything you see. In the interest of your specialness, your ego can elect to put this off. In the whole scheme of things, this will be but temporary. However, as your delay continues, your experience of pain and isolation will seem like an eternity, and it is within this delay where hell actually exists. Best wishes, Charliss PS....I have dropped you a clue as to the location of heaven...See if you can find it.

You figure it out, Chris. You keep up your blasphemy against the conception of God by making God out to be morally inferior to the worse human that ever lived. If there is a God, She will be extremeely displeased with you for not using your brain. In the following are 2 lists, one of Jesus' genealogy according to Matthew 1:1 - 17 and the other of Jesus' genealogy according to Luke 3:23 - 38. I tried to match Matthew's genealogy as closely as possible to Luke's genealogy. The names that corresponded I placed together and numbered them. There are only 17 names that are the same out of 41 listed by Matthew. Remember both genealogies are for Joseph. The guess by some that one must be for Joseph and the other one must be for Mary is no where supported in Bible verses. users.uniserve.com

the administrators of SI who smile and look the other way You and Coke Can found each other but it doesn't seem to bring either of you much happiness. I guess that comes later with Jesus, huh? For me I had a wonderful, pagan day. What a life! What exactly are the SI administrators ignoring? I presume you have been generally intolerant of any opinion expressed here and sought to shut down the thread. No one seeks to shut you down, but you seek to shut down others. Your hell will be that your karma will come back to you many times. You'll reap what you sow. And for that I'm truly sorry for you. You really have no idea how limited you are do you?
