Dear Christine I must tell say you are sadly mistaken that there is nothing concrete about Yeshua. The fact of the resurrection is the most documented event in human history. Besides the historical record of his condemnation by the Romans, there is also documentation by hostile Jewish sources, and in the Koran. The most compelling is the legal testimony of the Apostles, and early church. Who under the most harsh persecution possible, refused to recant what they saw with their own eyes. Professor Simon Greenleaf of Harvard University, a great mind and the foremost expert on legal evidence wrote that the resurrection is the most documentable event ever recorded. The Apostle Paul references over 500 witnesses to the risen savior after his well known death and resurrection. Do you really call this great man, who changed the world forever, a liar? You can be more sure of Yeshua's death and resurrection than you are of your own name, if you would only bother to look into it. You also seem to deny any type of truth, rather worship the G-d of personal opinion. This is the most intolerant position possible, as it denies the existence of any truth and turns everything into mythology. Logic and evidence we can discuss, but personal opinion is a dead end, and a closed mind. It is true that there is nothing wrong with mythology for what it is, but it is a poor excuse for truth. Many have witnessed to you what they know, not belive. If you reject it that is your choice. I do not appreciate your continued mocking of things you do not understand, and obviously have never investigated yourself. Jhn 21:24 This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true. 25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, that which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen. Do you really intend to call these men liars? Do you really think that the most central event in history, has no basis in fact at all? I cannot believe that the decision to base our calender on the life and death of Yeshua was less of a whim than your vain railings against the G-d that created you. You do violence to some of the greatest, and most loving men and women in history with such a closed minded and broad brushed critique. What do you hope to accomplish. In Yeshua's name - DLL
