By your definition anyone can claim to be a god and you'd believe it. This is the finest example of faulty logic if I ever saw one.

No, I think your getting angry and uncomfortable, but thats expected. Jesus did many things that re-enforced what He said. Raising the dead, healing Blind people with a touch.
 
Kim:
Someone made a really good movie with this theme but I can't remember the title. It had it all.....archealogical dig discovers tomb and bones......Vatican sends special priest to 'disprove' it all......Palestinian terrorists steal the bones in an attempt to bring down Christendom.... I really enjoyed it! :D

Let's face it - while the film was fictional, one has to wonder what would happen in reality if someone actually discovered the body and disproved it all! :d

Anyone see it and remember what it was called? I believe it was a joint Israeli/American production.

"The Body" Antion Bandaras (sp) The guy who played Zorro. I actually own a copy.

You do realize that if you simply say 'no' it doesn't necessarily mean you're right? We still need some proof and logic to back what you say.

How is your logic right when there's so many holes to it and why wouldn't you try to address them once they're pointed to you?

And I'm quite come, thank you. Drinking the chamomille tea and surfing the net, exploring facts about my next diving spot. :D
 
Kim:
Yes! That's it. He played the priest didn't he..

Yes, he played priest, Girl who was digging under food store? Dives Jeep!!! like a maniac. I may need to watch it tomorrow to refresh memory.

It wasn't that bad of a movie actually.

EDIT: Jeep was CJ7, but don't hold me to it.

But Kim, we can't really win this. A quote from the movie:

Father Lavelle: What will you do, Jesuit, if you discover that it is Christ in that tomb? A man like all of us?
Father Gutierrez: I will turn to God for the answer.


Another round, anyone? :D

That's true I suppose. A fixed opinion or belief will not allow the processing of any new information that contradicts it. It's the way our minds work. Certainty closes the mind.

That's already clear from this thread as illustrated by the different way that science 'believes' things as opposed to religion. One is continually growing and expanding, renewing, etc....the other is stuck in stuff written 2000 years or more ago! :D

Naw ... waste of time and effort.

Actually... if it were proven that Jesus did not rise from the dead then Christianity would be a fraud.

And yet there is plenty of evidence that Jesus did actually rise from the dead... at least it is enough evidence for me to believe that it is true... the recorded testimony of eyewitnesses being being the primary and convincing evidence for me.

The willingness of the principles to die rather than recant their testimony of having seen the resurrected Jesus gives extraordinary weight to their words.

Of particular importance is the conversion of Saul of Tarsus, arch enemy of Christianity. His claim to have actually seen the resurrected Jesus is made all the more believable in that his conversion cost him personally by way of losing all position and prestige in the Jewish religion ...and ultimately costing him his very life.

I wasn't there nor have I seen Jesus. All I can do is weigh the evidence presented to me with an open mind. Having done that I am satisfied that Jesus did indeed rise from the dead... and for me that opened the door for faith... not the other way around.
