For the record, I reject the premise. No evidence nor objective scientific premise requries the rejection of the Four Gospels, plus other NT allusions, as "firsthand evidence."

For the record, I reject the premise.

I do, too. However, one commonly hears that there are no contemporary non-Christian refrences to Jesus, and some folks consider that to be proof that Jesus was fictional.

IF this story is true, then that line of argument dries up and blows away. Of course, then the topic shifts to whether this actual human, Jesus, was actually God.

I'm not the most religious guy in the world, but I really liked that link to making your very own Jesus.

Liked your Site Dan! Very Funny - Great place to send people when they refuse to listen to fact, logic, reason or historical record.

Interesting story on James' ossuary. Wonder what will happen if indeed it continues to bear witness to the further verification of the Biblical record. For me, I need none :)

I am always touched by the way Jesus is portrayed in the gospel of John. No figure of myth ever had the weakness, which requires compassion (from us) or had the compassion, how he related to those around him, which he showed.

Very good.

Those of us who know Him have all the evidence we will ever need.

I like what you are saying there. Frankly I have never liked any mix of faith and science (creationism, intelligent design...etc). It leads us off the beaten track of FAITH.
