Posted October 20, 2005 What do you think? was he the savoiur of mankind as the bible says or was he scrounger just going around preaching "i'm the son of god heres two loafs of bread pass them around and it will feed everyone" before running away with all the bread and fish for himself.

Posted October 20, 2005 Definantly the second one. Or he was a scrounger who was paid by some high up ancient government type to spread "commandments" other wise known as laws to control people. Because of that idiot I cant murder anybody, not even one person! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 20, 2005 Religious threads don't tend to go down well. People end up in heated discussion and stupid things are said from both sides. I'm a Christian so that's my point of view. I'll wager that most people reading this will have made up their minds and won't say anything. From a Christian's point of view the need of a Saviour is quite logical. God is both merciful and just and we are always going around breaking his commandments. As God is just we have to face the penalty of our actions, but mercy can be extended to us via the Saviour as he has take upon himself our sins and penalties. Like, neato.

Posted October 20, 2005 Did you know that Jesus is equivalent to Joshua? Just different translations of the same root word or something. James and Jacob also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, the same applies to "Jim Davison" and "****". EDIT- My favourite word is censored. This makes me sad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 21, 2005 Jesus was a political aggitator . If, however, he is the saviour and returns to save us , we should tell him right away , "hurry mate , go back to heaven , the bastards will crucify you". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You believe George Clooney and his Nazi memoribilia? Sorry, its a family guy joke. But seriously, why believe a film? It could have streched the truth or made parts up for entertainment reasons. Who the hell would want to sit through 4 hours of bible stuff anyway? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 21, 2005 None of those. He wasn't the son of God, but I doubt he was a scrounger. Maybe he was just delusional? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although most of the bible is stories, i still belive he came down to spread the word. ect ect. *religous babble* But, thers always the thing that he was a crazy person, or a magition? But im not one to guess, i wasnt round @ the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 22, 2005 Neither. He was pretty influential political leader though, sort of an early day socialist who challenged the corrupt nature of the Church at the time. It wasn't until the last Roman Emperor Constantine was forced to dissolve Christian teachings and Paganism into one religion (hence why we have so many pagan symbols in christianity) that Jesus was 'promoted' to a messiah in the new versions of the new testament. Oh, and I am a Christian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 23, 2005 If any religions hatred is spoken, the thread will be locked and the users involved warned. Who the hell would want to sit through 4 hours of bible stuff anyway? Moving on. I'm a christian and thus as the title of my religion suggests I believe tha Jesus was 'christ' as in the son of God and saviour of man. I think if you look at what he did you have to decide if you thought he was insane, evil or good. But he can't just be called 'good' hes either the son of god and telling the truth, or hes not and lying which makes him incredibly evil or just insane.

Posted October 23, 2005 According to religion teachers I've had in the past, one must believe that Jesus was the son of God and is the Saviour to be a Christian. That's the definition I hold to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
