    Christianity will always stand, as much as liberals, white ones specifically, want it to disappear. Just let the left keep going further and further in the direction they are going in. They will lose the black vote eventually if that’s their agenda. Blacks don’t share any common values with white liberals. Blacks aren’t into the LGBTQIDKS and atheist movement the majority of white Dems are.

    Sigh. Brainwashing is a horrible thing. What you call "belief" is, in fact, first hand knowledge. Why you choose to give goatherder books from people who didn't even have that from so many ages ago I know not. But worry not, you'll have many more lifetimes to get it right.

    It's not history if no one there to witness it has any details or evidence. According to that theory Zeus is still an active deity. Making up history is a sport for children and artists.

    You do not know what you are talking about.........narcisstic ramblings. There are witnesses and vivid details, you just detest them as your avatar would indicate.

    Uh, you're 100% wrong. No one who was supposedly around during the resurrection story wrote anything down because they were not literate. Those stories were passed down orally for over 100 years before anyone took notes. That's not history that's called mythology.

    I'm a fan of science. If ANY mythology had a basis in reality I'd be the first along with millions of other science-based people who want to embrace evidence. This is why no one bothers to discuss things with zealots, they cannot be reasoned out of an opinion that required no reason in the first place. Such as magic.

    Most were written down before 70 A.D. That's 27 years at most after the resurrection. Considering the persecution that was going on.....entirely reasonable. There was a far greater outcry in their support than those calling it a falsehood. Greatest outcry against was from those calling for "emperor worship". Jewish tradition had written tradition which was replicated quite accurately, but it also had an accurate "oral tradition" as young Hebrews memorized large sections of the Talmud as a requirement. (that was so just in case zealots for their extinction, as yourself, ever tried to destroy them entirely)
    There are truths in the New Testament that dispel the "myths" of fabrication. One being that in those times of Jewish culture, women had absolutely no credibility as a witness. However, according to the Gospels, it was "women" who first discovered an empty tomb and gave their testimony. A fabrication would have avoided that entirely! I don't point that out to convince you, as you seem to be entirely convinced of "self-worship" but others might want to examine the record for themselves!

    There is no evidence of WHEN those stories were written, only that they were passed on verbally. Since that involved not only complete hearsay but magic events that no 4 people collaborated on it's entirely fictional at best. At this point what you have is nothing more than mythology. I'm not sure why anyone would pick one mythology over another if not for popularity.

    So yes, in light of the fact that magic isn't real now and wasn't real every day up until today it's certainly a strong call to trust in yourself and not magic friends. You are welcome to have as many of those as you like, or none at all.
