Jesus Never Existed at All |
This is an article written by Don Havis that appears to be well researched. I found this on East Bay Atheists and I was surprised when I read it. Like most people who don't believe in Jesus I had thought that there was at least "some guy" in the past that at least existed. (Being raised Jewish and not buying Judaism I was hardly buying the "God had to kill his son for your sins" story.) I suppose that it comes from the same trust that the human race can't be that stupid, that surely this isn't pure fiction. It appears I was wrong.
Jesus joins the ranks of pure fiction with the likes of Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, the Boogie Man, God, Apollo, Zeus, Yoda, Osiris, Spock, Vishnu, Noah, Aphrodite, Hermes, the Virgin Mary, Eros, Iris, Moses, and Spiderman. Billions of people believing in nothing.
I find this fascinating, I hope you all will as well whether you be an Atheist or a Christian. Truth should stand up to scrutiny and it is by doubting that we maintain trustworthiness.
