Roman, Greek, and Egyptian history account for the life and in Roman records the death of a man called Jesus.

Why are so many people angered by Christianity vs. other wrold religions? Why celebrate Christmas - buying gifts, taking off work, etc… if you do not believe in the Son of God? Why all the aggression?

There are people that claim to be Christians that do not live a Gospel focused - love one another to include the less fortunate - as taught by Jesus’ actions. These false witnesses do attempt to stain the faith as do many other fanatics that blown up buildings in the name of their religion.

Shroud or no shroud, does this prove Jesus’ existance? No. The Bible, Koran, tax records from Caesar, and 2000 year old documents do write about the profit Jesus who taught to many crowds of people.

Beard or no beard - I don’t know. I do believe Jesus was not white and either had full facial hair or none - not a stash or goatee.

“We are at about 99.9999999% right now,” I admit, I made that up. In my defense though I was using a literary tool called hyperbole (exaggeration to the lay man). Basically I was saying that the scientific community have already moved past the evolution debate. It isn’t even a debate to them. And yes, it can never be proven completely true, but we can show with enough certainty that it is extremely unlikey that its not true.

It pretty much sounds to me like you are just a tool who is upset that his beliefs are being shat upon by reality. Get a life, and a bio book.

“Michael, I would like to ask what level of scientific education you reached. I’m guessing its no higher than high school chemistry. I, on the other hand, have taken years of college science in biology, human physiology, chemistry, physics, etc. There is proof for evolution, it just isn’t enough to say with 100% certainty that it is fact. We are at about 99.999999% right now. You just can’t back away from the fact that we share 97% of our genes with chimpanzees.”

Look at yourself, ask yourself a question, “Why do I make up shit I don’t really know a fucking thing about?” If you really had that knowledge you so claim to possess you would have some sort of cognitive understanding that there is no way that can be proven. Go read a book named “The Elegant Universe”, and if you get past Ch. 4 then you’ll see just how idiotic you look when you try to make up shit that you think others are too stupid to know the difference about. There are scholars both religious and non-religious that disagree about this very topic, but none of them have ANY kind of rationale that you just spewed from your disgusting assto make you say, “99.9999999% sure” for evolution, take a biology class at the collegiate level and you’ll understand that there is no way to make that calculation, in ANY faccet of the imagination. I highly doubt any of you are scholars, so how about you SHUT THE FUCK UP AND EDUCATE YOURSELVES. Bastards like you are what make people wonder if abortion should be legal or not. Fucking sac of shit.

That every mammal (including dolphins) shares the same wrist bones, though each species has a wrist that is more suited to their respective environments. A dolphin has a broad, thin carpal bone which is used as its front fin. Your carpal bone is small and barely makes up anything in your wrist.

Honestly I get a kick out of all these people who say shit like, “the development of the eye needed 11 specific mutations, that is not statistically plausible.” Yeah it is, because the aminals with that mutation had a distinct advantage over other species without it, so they were more capable of continuing their species.

Personally, I find it more ridiculus that you follow a belief that has NO substantiation (you sort of admit this), rather than a concept that has at least some. With that logic I could tell you that I’m fabio and you would believe that over 479,300 people who tell you that they are pretty sure that I’m not. I guess that settles it, I’m fabio!

You know, if God is real, what is the harm in trying to prove evolution? All of us evolutionists go to hell, and you do your thing. But what if God isn’t real? We found it out and you are left with a wasted life filled with bogus hope. Based on those outcomes I can see why you don’t want evolution to be true. At least I KNOW that my life wasn’t wasted, hell would be more fun anyway.

In reality, I think that religion teaches some good life lessons. But most believers take it farther than I think it was intended. Who cares if Jesus was real, the character of Jesus was a great guy with great morals, regardless of whether he was real or just made up.

I really enjoy reading that BS about “god is all powerful, the laws of physics don’t apply to him.” Well that certainly is testable. And just because they teach something in public schools does not make it fact. They used to think that the world was flat, that the earth was the center of the universe, etc. (all pushed by the Christians). In fact, Ptolemy knew and taught that the Earth was round in 150AD, hundreds of years before Columbus. He even predicted the existence and approximate location of North and South America based on the imbalance of land on the globe. There was a regression of knowledge during the Middle Ages because of the influence of religion. In 1410, Ptolemy’s book on geography made it back to europe and then was one of the first books printed on the Guttenberg press (after the Bible). Columbus read his book which led to the great voyage of 1492. The rest really is history. Throughout the years religion has been a huge force against knowledge, why would they stop now? There is absolutely no doubt in my mind about evolution. Also, to scientists, the word theory means a lot more than just a possible idea. A real theory has much evidence for it, no real evidence against it, is generally accepted as fact in the scientific community, and has just yet to be 100% verified. Theory, to those pushing the “theory of creationism,” only means an idea regardless of how substantiated it is (and the Bible doesn’t count as substantiation).

Most Jewish texts are now irrelevant as Jesus very clearly stated that the old way of things has passed and that he is the new covenant.

“Origin of Species” by Darwin provides very little actual evidence for macroevolution and in fact hardly even mentions it.

If an all powerful God does exist, he created the laws of physics themselves, and therefore is not subject to them. He requires no creator (or “cause”) and can easily create things like matter and energy.

Christianity (or all forms of religion for that matter) is indeed incapable of being proven scientifically. But one would be a fool to say that Evolution has been proven beyond reasonable doubt. One must keep in mind that previous scientific theories are being disproven all the time by new advancements and that Christianity is supposed to be largely faith based anyway.

2000 years ago a man named Jesus claimed to be the Son of God and was crucified until death for his beliefs. That much is historical fact. They teach it in the same public schools that teach evolution.

And to Michael and any other Christians debating on here:
Try to remember that the Bible states that some people are simply incapable of ever understanding God’s divine truth, so trying to convince them is futile.

Yes, I am a Christian. Dont worry though, I’m not on a crusade to try to convert anyone or debunk any opposing theories. I just wanted to inform some misinformed people. You guys can come to the truth on your own or you can believe whatever you want. It really won’t make me lose any sleep.

plus i like that point ‘ so who created god?’ . i think this guys onto something here.

And about the noahs arc stuff… somewhere near where i live (Wiltshire in England) they found remains of a boat that is proven to be 1000’s of years old… is that noahs arc? , i leave that for you to decide…

Also on this noah arc thing it states in the bible that noah the fine chap that he was, went all around the world and finding species that are undiscovered and got 2 of each of the unclean animals (not farm animals) and 8 pars of clean animals (farm animals) and take them back to his boat. Ok how did he know which animals he could eat and which he couldnt?

Also you said that some parts of the bible have been proven and are beleivable… ye the ones that say that the people could walk… thats about the only true thing in the book.

as for jesus walking on water… his mum was probably just exagertating… he was probably really good on ice skates.

Jesus turning water into wine??? that looks good, jesus the alcoholic.. pff wats rong weith water

And on his beard, i would like to think jesus was sporting a hitler style beard, as it would be really ironic.

Second, worldwide flood, no proof. Very large flood on the european/middle eastern continent, there is some evidence. But not enough to forge a boat the size of a small country. Plus, the shear number of animal that would have had to be on there is just plain ridiculous to even speculate as possible. Plus, in order to survive without severe inbreeding issues you would need more than 1 pair of each. Oh my, theres some evidence of evolution there. Inbreeding causes problems. Hell, even the bible says that.
