Jesus Christ - Son of God or a Madman

"Jesus IS the Son of God, or he WAS a madman."

So said CS Lewis, a reasonable Brit.

I am a product of the Bible Belt. I am not reasonable. I am sick of guys in backward collars making a living saying Christ was a social philosopher they can sell at the Country Club.

Screw philosophy.

At the verry least Jesus Christ was a "mere" man who DEMANDED the unimaginable agony of the cross.

Or He IS the Son of God.

The well-paid backwards collar type tries to make a reasonable compromise of Him.

Tomorrow I celebrate the birth of Jesus, who did not compromise.

>The Jesus myth hypothesis is the hypothesis that Jesus did not exist as a historical person and that the Jesus of the New Testament was created by early Christians based on earlier mythology.

>Among biblical historians and scholars, the hypothesis receives little discussion, for example Robert Van Voorst has written that "the theory of Jesus' nonexistence is now effectively dead as a scholarly question."


If you're so sure of yourself, why don't you go try and convince some historians or archeologists?  Someone who's opinion matters.

I don't have the time, and I don't really care enough to have this conversation.
