I do, for the record. I just don't understand why people refuse to believe that he even walked this earth, claiming that is was a long time ago and things could have gotten misinterpreted. You could say the same thing about any historical figure, about Ferdinand Magellan, or Charlemagne, or Cleopatra and Marc Antony. Originally, all we had to work with was dusty old scrolls, but no one questions whether or not they existed. Some people will say that those who recorded Jesus life and teachings were biased because they were religious, but if you look closely, most written records from that time period had religious elements to them. Why is one more acceptable than the other, is it just personal choice or does it have a proven method behind it?
Whatever you believe, I ask that you be polite and courteous to others. I will respect your opinions if you respect the opinions of others and my own opinions. Keep it civil, or don't bother. Take your insults and cutdowns somewhere else.
