Do you have a name, Thames sider? It would be a little easier to communicate that way. Christianity is Jewish in origin, as was Jesus. Jesus is a historical figure that is corroborated by secular, and extra biblical literature as well as the eyewitness testimony given in the Bible. the founders of all those other religions are now dead This is not really a biblical argument, are you saying they're not? Jesus rose from the dead and thereby validated all the claims He made. As I alluded to, Jesus' resurrection is an historical fact, granted, it is a disputed fact. The Apostles were pretty much all executed violently, for their claim that Jesus rose from the dead. People don't usually die for what they know to be a lie, there must be some explanation as to why this occurred. The one that is most obvious is that He really did rise from the dead. The Apostles could have avoided all the fuss if they only denied the resurrection, or even if the said he rose Spiritually but they refused to. Why? Pip pip Greg
