Philosophy 201 Guidelines
Cogito ergo sum
Here in the Philosophy forum we will talk about all the "why" questions. We'll have conversations about the way in which philosophy and theology and religion interact with each other. Metaphysics, ontology, origins, truth? They're all fair game so jump right in and have some fun! But remember...play nice!

Did you know even Hindus believed Jesus was divine and a miracle worker? As do Muslims and Christians. And even those who don't believe he was a miracle worker, believe he existed and convinced people he was a miracle worker. Only morons like you and JimL think he was a myth and never existed.

Originally posted by JimL View PostThe argument is whether or not Jesus is believed by scholars to be god, not whether they believe in god, or believe Jesus to have existed, or performed miracles. I think we call that moving the goal posts when realizing you've lost the game.
Originally posted by JimLMany, I would say most, non-christians or archeologists believe that the Jesus as depicted in the bible is a myth, Sparko. The naive do believe it though.

Other than atheists, most of the world's religions actually do believe Jesus existed and was as described in the bible. Muslims, Christians, Baha'i, Hindi. Buddhists.Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom

Originally posted by One Bad Pig View PostSort of. Muslims think that Judas died in Jesus' place on the cross, and Jesus was just a prophet, not divine. Hindus and Buddhists believe in reincarnation, which is fundamentally incompatible with resurrection.

Hindus believe in many gods and goddesses, all of which are manifestations of one abstract supreme being.
Muslims do not believe that Jesus was divine or the son of God. He was a prophet.
I think the man Jesus probably existed, I’ve never said otherwise.
