@StevenErtelt I like the part whereby according to the Gospel of Matthew, Mary and Joseph fled to another country, namely Egypt with the infant Jesus to escape King Herod the Great.
@BuenoForMiami@JohnRwasac1 "Elisha was walking along the road, some boys came out of the town and jeered at him. “Get out of here, baldy!” they said. “Get out of here, baldy!"
"He called down a curse on them in the name of the LORD. Then two bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the boys."

@QuantumGuard17 Who would be so stupid to be stunned that Trump called for anyone to be prosecuted, as is many of the ones who left his administration have also been "called to be prosecuted"
Stupidity.

@DeanBenson0chb@samueleyekosi Let's say what you said was true (tongue in cheek), if they are in the bowels of earth having lived and died.
Do you think any of them would not believe should Jesus appear (unlike here on earth)?
Which just leads to they all went to "heaven" good or evil people.
Absurdity
@JWAlex_in_MTL@JohnSmithxwdjq1@Olasejoe I agree that the writing styles are very different, but I also know the writing styles of many of the books of the Bible are all very different, so for instance Paul vs Luke, David/Psalms vs Ezekiel.
I do think a spiritual context and historical both exists in the both. Q&G.
@sj27426@its_d_weekend@UgoCannon I also remembered being in the highchair, but that is irrelevant.
What face did you see, a Middle Eastern man ?
Your mind isn't evidence of God and neither is mine or anyone else's.
@sj27426@its_d_weekend@UgoCannon What exactly were you told? Did you hear anyone mention the name of Jesus?
What events and words did you "know"?
When I was born, I knew I would come across bullshi*tters.
@gypsycaravan53@JustinCarowick@athiestboi At the core of Christianity is evangelism and proselytism. With every convert, there is elation, feeling of satisfaction that makes one feel good about themselves. That is why any Christian that teaches the Bible, strives for this result, any other thought is disingenuous.
@JWAlex_in_MTL@JohnSmithxwdjq1@Olasejoe Well in the Quran, it does say that Jesus was born of a virgin, performed miracles, Messiah to the Jews, sent by God and will return again.
Assuming probably, none of that is true.

@XtianNinja70 That's as stupid as it gets. Socrates (399 BC)
Athens sentenced him to death for allegedly corrupting young people and impiety. He refused to abandon his philosophical principles and drank poison (hemlock).
There literally hundreds of people who have died for other reasons.
