Religious people refuse to believe that life could just appear, or happen, or whatever. But, they will believe that God was always there, always will be and he made everything. It's like the whole chicken or the egg thing.

Furthermore, if Jesus was the child of rape, then who is to say that Mary was even holy? Maybe the guard was. Man juice to the extreme.

Not that I disagree with the possibility, but just because someone made the news about it, doesn't make it much more justifiable a statement ;)

well... i claim the news to be a higher level of acceptance than someone telling me something.. because no news source likes to get proven wrong.. thats just bad publicity.. so they research on topics, and get actual information.. its not a he said she said thing.. its an actual source that is rarely wrong.. but with this.. since they are so vague about the facts... and also they have so little facts.. it doesn't really state anything more than the topic this thread... but.. yea..

well, if one of friends told me that, i would definately do some research before i posted it because it really can degredate a religion...so i think that providing a link is the least 87x could have done and defiinatley shows that he looked into it first...of course we know 75% of all stuff on the interent is made up crapso we just have to judge for ourselves here...strange though that i didnt see any news on cnn or anything if this was a new breakthrough here

Lots of news companies are so popular because of their austentatious proposals.

I was trying to think of a joke about Fox News' "fair and balanced" thing to put here, but I couldn't.

point noted. XD

I always thought that maybe mary screwed someone else, and because she wouldn't do it with joe and somehow ended up pregnant,she said god was the father so she could get away with cheating.Also the whole three wise men thing,they were shepards right? Well, there were sheep at the barn where she had the love child.The wise men's sheep could've just been looking for mates and led them there. Also all the "incense" and liquid in their pouch could've had something to do with the angel gabriel and the fact that it was proven that they were actually following the north star. How they thought that was an angel,I have no clue...had to be high on something...I know being in church when i was younger, that incense got me very dizzy and high. The bible has alot of false things in it....now don't say I'm starting a flamewar,its just my opinion....

Anticrombie, I saw Life of Brian. It's hilarious, if that answers your question.

Also heyhey, how can you claim to believe in a monotheistic God and deny His omnipotence? The situation presents itself as impossible.

it was posted dec 23 of 2002.... its not going to be on cnn as anything late breaking..

Here's my view on gods, the human psyche is too weak to handle the fact that we actually are in control of our own fate. So now, over these thousands and thousands of years a genetic NEED for a god has developed, this has been proven. Pretty much we've dug ourself a giant pit of nonsense...Here's another controvercial story about Jesus. You know why the church never talks about his childhood????? Because it wasn't pretty. In one tale during Mary and Joesephs travel to Nazareth Jesus went out to play with some of the villages children. Jesus made a bird out of clay, suddenly it came to life and started flying around. The other children started laughing at him, and he killed them all, all 21.

Not to mention Jesus pushing his friend off of a roof, thus killing him. When everyone began to scold Jesus for doing what he did, he brought his friend back to life. Saying "What did I do that was so bad" in a know it all tone.

"A Catholic bishop today criticised a British television documentary that suggests the Virgin Mary may have been raped by a Roman soldier."
I cant be mad at the bishop I mean If i had proof in my hands that said Mary was raped and back then they didnt really have that much info on rape at the time (bc) So how does this guy have the evidence

Really, there is no evidence...yet.

I sware if jewpin turns out to be god i'm gonna be pissed...not suprised at all...but pissed, unless i get to be Jesus...
