How can anyone possibly think that Jesus can exist if God didn't? That totally doesn't work, Jesus came from God. Clearly many atheists have not read the bible - because if they had they would beable to establish that I am right and they aren't!!!

Ok, among others, Buddha existed, without being proof that the Indian Gods or the Infinite did, Mohammed existed, without evidence that Allah as he outlines it exists, Rabbis and Jews exist, and we don´t know if their Yahweh exists...............
Jesus may have existed as a prophet, as the jews have always said. That he was the son of God and ascended to heaven?,,,,you just go too far
Jesus may have existed and some of that stuff in that Bible may be his message.
Sun worshippers can point to their God and tell you when he'll come back. Every morning, there's a God you can trust. There's your life-giver
"Jesus came from God"
And where dod God come from? And don't say 'He is eternal'. Just as we had mothers & fathers (and Jesus, according to your Buybull, came from Mary, after God dumped his Holy Load in said underage briffit, don't forget that), he had to have similar creators. Ah, but if he did , then that'd fuck up your entire religion wouldn't it, if he had beings superior to him who were his creators.
And you wonder why we're Atheists?
@ #1010020:
All the Buddha said was that stuff existed, and some of it caused suffering. The supernatural stuff got added later.
Much like whatever teachings whoever the historical Jesus may have been were horribly mangled by three centuries of fanon before being codified into the bible.
Firstly, whether Jesus ever existed at all is a hotly debated question. Secondly, even if a man called Jesus did exist and say some of the stuff in the Bible (and spiritual gurus were a growth industry in Judea at the time so that's possible), it still wouldn't prove his divinity.
Which god do you mean?
- The one who turned water into wine? That was originally Dionysus.
- The one who healed the sick and raised the dead? That was originally Asclepius
- The one who came back from the dead? That was originally Osiris.
- The one who was known as "The Way, The Truth and The Light?" That was originally Mithra.
So to answer your question, the reason the religious image of Jesus exists is because his image was drawn from a variety of pagan gods. So how could that exist if the pagan gods did not exist?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
