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? Because what I said was simple common sense. And if you had intellectual integrity you'd care about that. Further, I'm NOT asserting it... just noting the two things ("miracles" and having gone to the east) correlate... You DID make an assertion - a quite specific one for which there's no evidence whatsoever except that you don't like the idea of Jesus as Christianity presents him and like New-Agey pseudo-Buddhist-Taoist-Hindu things better: I said ""JEsus went to the EAST for thirteen years and came back enlightened and able to do all sorts of things that Eastern mystics have been reported to do for millenia... dissapear, bi-locate, communicate non-verbally, burn paper with "Qi", move objects with their minds, etc etc."" 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??) Could be. Since its you saying it, I think you just made it up. Prove me wrong by posting several example of Taoist masters healing people and/or walking on water. Since you say its not unusual, this shouldn't be a problem for you. Or is this another assertion based on your personsl fantasy? Guess you're not up on the bible... or teachings of Christianity in general... here, brush up: newadvent.org Huh! Just like the Taoists! I'm sorry, there's nothing at that site that says Jesus was a Taoist or other Eastern mystic.
