"Strange. There is considerable scientific evidence to support the concept of a TV. There is no scientific evidence supporting Jesus."

The only thing I find strange is how limited some people's minds are, yours for example.

I tried to imagine what it would be like to think like one of you, so I laid down and listened to sounds. I heard my saliva swishing in my mouth. I felt my arms and legs and thought, 'this is a mass of biology.' Born, growing, someday it will be dead worm food. 'I'm doing it' I thought, 'interesting.' I thought about how I could exist this way and then I realised I am self-aware and how observations of such things involves brain power and mindfullness beyond biology, and I was using that dimension of self, I became aware of other and felt a regard for other and it's/their well being. 'Oh know,' I thought... now I am slipping into consciousness, next I will be thinking of purposefulness, then meaningfulness, what next... 'rats.' said I, 'I have failed at my task of thinking like a soul less person. I don't mind failing at such things though.

We have manuscripts written by men long after he was purported to have lived. These manuscripts are similar to other manuscripts written to describe prophets in other religions.

Thats all we have for anyone who lived in antiquity. Or for that matter before photography or tape recording.

The manuscripts look to be stories.

They look to be based on eyewitness testimony.
