You might also consider the historical fact that all of history is now idexed and measured from the birth of Jesus Christ.

Obviously, there was something very special about Jesus if even secular historians uniformly use his birth as the reference point of all of history.

Can any reasonable person realy believe there was nothing special about such a person? It's not like he was the the first person to be crucified.

If the resurrection of Christ is not true, why would his disciples hide in fear after his crucifiction and then speak boldly and then suffer horrible deaths. Would anyone do that for a lie? No reasonable man could possibly think so; especially when it was all of them.

Highball, I see you have not addressed my post #782.

Clearly, you have no way to explain away why virtually the entire world uses the birth of Jesus as the reference point of all of history.
