***That's all you could get out of that post?!?!***

What more did you have to say?

You said...

"Christ is wrong. (...that is assuming he even existed, that he said this, that he meant it to be a historical statement, that the people who heard it accurately passed it on to those who wrote it down, and that it is being interpreted by you in the manner intended.)"

To question whether he existed is the remark of someone who has been propagandized by the Left - or someone who is ignorant of history.

Interesting that you bring up the Muslims, for, excepting your first statement, you are using their arguments almost word for word.

Let me ask you this, have you ever read the Gospels?

So it's wrong to question what the Bible says? Have you ever questioned anything you found in it?

...or someone with an elementary grasp of logic and rhetoric. Your statement implied a string of assumptions, only a few of which I pointed out. Any one of these would eviscerate your conclusion. The burden is on you to consider and prove those assumptions.

Not really. Their argument is that God recited the Koran to Mohammad through the Angel Gabriel, revealing the fact that Jesus was merely a prophet, not God incarnate, and that the Christians blasphemed God by corrupting Jesus' words and life. Their basis for disbelieving Christian doctrine is based on the tenets of Islam, not on a logical and rhetorical analysis of the statement.

Yes. Why?
