"Sort of the same exaggeration as one finds in the bible ,
in the Gospels , of the "multitudes" always conveniently showing up and following Jesus around huh? All the borrowed miracles and myths inserted to give it more weight , and the sad sad ending ."

These were eyewitness historical accounts by men who saw and heard Jesus! These men were willing to die rather than change their stories. Wouldn't a lying scoundrel had repented before the final execution?

The historical accuracy of the Bible is very important, but the final efficacy of the Gospel rests in the reality of the living Christ today and the active Holy Spirit given by faith in Christ. So, the final test of the validity of the Christian Gospels comes though faith in Christ and the Holy Spirit that comes to dwell in the Christians.

If you sincerely read the historical accounts with and open heart and mind, a mind desiring the truth of the matter, you will find it. If you have an insincere mind, you will remain in darkness!

Goodnight! I enjoyed discussing this subject with you. Perhaps I will have another opportunity to dialog tomorrow.

"They held their heads with laughs of pain
They learned from men who'd just refrain
From glancing at a mirror's face
Seven screaming diz-busters who lurked by a rose
Had iron for a bloodstream and ice behind their eyes

On each and all those holy nights
Where dusters dust becomes the sale and lucifer, the light

They're long so long this time of year
When stars be crossed by twirling fear
You don't suppose I'd prove surprised
Seven screaming diz-busters should go the route and die
Without the warmth they learn to crave
With hardened smiles and evil signs

On each and all those holy nights
Where dusters dust becomes the sale and lucifer, the light

Bury me near the secret cove so they'll not know the way
Bury me there, behind the rose so they'll not rile my grave
I'll not reveal whose name still loose (?)
Well their laugh of pain...And their harder smiles...
And their rigid arms...And their evil signs...
Longer days and the longer nights
And their longer, and longer still

On each and all those holy nights
Where dusters dust becomes the sale and lucifer, the light"
