I know that is your opinion...it all becomes a matter of faith and where one anchors one’s soul...(though some modern thinkers might describe the process as the “kernel set of moral values around which one’s mental construct of reality and one’s own keen sense of one’s “I” centeredness become molded together into a personality matrix that acts and reacts towards other people and events in accordance to those inculcated values.

Nevertheless, what we know of Jesus’ words are written in the Bible we have. His words spoke of a mission to “seek and save that which is lost; even to the point, if only one of his sheep was missing, he would have given his life for that one sheep. He said in the words that are found in this Bible you doubt so much...”I am the Good shepherd...and I lay down my life for my sheep...”

So much for Pharisees and Earthly Kingdoms....

If you want to believe in a bunch of handed down stories from the Middle East that was tweaked by Italians, and then revamped by an English king, go ahead, I mean... it doesn’t really matter. The nice thing about Christians is they don’t fly planes into buildings. I started out simply pointing out to one poster that there were more possible explanations for Jesus’s life than TRUTH or MADNESS. The most likely explanation is that he was a political figure murdered by political enemies whose story then became fodder for various legends. You like those legends? Have at it. It’s better than Islam, at least. Now there’s some crazy.
