<The people who make a claim - as you did about Jesus traveling to the "East" and learning how to levitate from swamis - have the burden of finding evidence for their assertion.>

First of all, why would I give a rats ass what YOU think? Further, I'm NOT asserting it... just noting the two things ("miracles" and having gone to the east) correlate... one can make up their own assertions.

Further, it's well known that if you go FAR enought east... these things are not that unusual. That's all. I assume you're aware of that (Taoist masters healing, walking on water, and all that??)... maybe you're more ignorant than I thought.

In any case, I now know you seem to have missed that whole point. :))

Further... the real issue is:

<I'm not getting your references to Jesus "levitate, burn bushes"? >

Guess you're not up on the bible... or teachings of Christianity in general... here, brush up:

newadvent.org

Huh! Just like the Taoists!

“AS for Jesus, the gospels relate various miracles during his lifetime .... otoh it stresses he was born a mortal man, who suffered and died on the cross.

“talking about his ascension?

Talking about the Saints who came to life and wandered about sucking on parched nuts and figs!
