The Christians claim that He is the son of God and the Messish, the Muslims believe that He is Isa, a Great prophet, the Jews believe that He was not the Messiah and just an ordinary Jewish offender. It is an established fact now that Christ really did lived on earth. Millions of people saw him and many followed and believe in His teachings. He was pointing towards God and actually is the most valid, authentic and integral proof that God really exists. If some would argue that He lied about God, would anybody lie for a certain truth that would cost your own very life? The only way to disprove that God exist is to disprove that Christ exist. If Christ is the most reliable proof that God exist why did he not explain about evolution or at least hinted on the subject as the origin of man?

Your sarcasms will not justify your being, it will only give you two points more. So come on, I am expecting more intelligent answers than meer sneers.
But just the same I thank you for your inputs.

Taranto,
Calling me an idiot doesn't make you better than me. Did you really get the question? No wonder why you used examples like Hitler, Kamikaze and 9/11 terrorists and out of my idiotic thoughts I found out that you were talking about murderous truths. I was talking about spirituality and not murderers, bright boy.

Some mentioned about logic and I agree that its a universally accepted parameter, but let us be reminded that a lot of innocent souls have been incarcerated in the name of logic.

What I am quite concerned about in this category is when people call others idiot based on a question like self proclaimed messiahs who knows everything. When you are ask a question, an intelligent person would readily know that "idiot isn't the answer. I don't care whatever you believe in, you may be athiest or theist because I can never take that away from you. But an idiot like me knows that athiest will always consider theist as idots no matter what they do. If you keep on coming to these category by listening to idiots, then what does that make you, an expert of laws and jurisprudence?

Yashua is living proof that Yhwh exists. He was born of Him, lived a sinless life, bringing all Yhwh's goodness to His creation. He is the perfect embodiment on earth of our creator.
When you are down, He will be there to pick you back up. When you sin (and don't do this), He will be there to reassure your place in Heaven.

To give you the answer about the origin of man, this was explained in the Bible; the book of Genesis. This is the only proof that I need. This book was written before Darwin wrote the Origin of Species. A book that even he had some reservations about.
As for the origin of man, I don't subscribe that we descended from monkeys. Even the fossilized skeletons of 'Early man" were later disproved. The Neanderthal Man was later found to a be a man with arthritis. The skeleton "Lucy" was just a chimp.
I would read the Bible if you want to learn more and concentrate on the Gospel of Matthew. You'll find the answers you're looking for.

I'd like you to take a logic class.
When you are done, I'd like you to take another look at what you just wrote. Then I'd like you to find the logical fallacy in your statement. Then I'd like you to smack yourself (hard) in the forehead and say "What an idiot I was."
Your proof rests upon this statement:
"would anybody lie for a certain truth that would cost your own very life?"
Lots of people have. You want some examples? How about Hitler? How about the kamikazi pilots of WWII. How about the guys who flew into the WTC on 9/11.
Do you realize that if you are right about Jesus, then the terrorists who killed thousands of people must be in heaven at this very moment having sex with 70 virgins.
I have refrained from calling people idiots in this forum. but . . . .

Christ is not proof of anything. You stated, very eloquently in the first half of your question, exactly what christ represents to the vast majority of the populace of the planet. The problem though, is that the entire idea of God is based in the fact that his presence and existence can not be proven. Every religion in the world that worships a single deity, and many that worship multiple deities, rely on the idea of faith. That is, trusting and believing in something for reason other than fact.
This is an important distinction to make, because many people equate the two to being proof of the other, or being mutually non-exclusive. The fact is, if christ existed, then he existed. Actual proof of him having been alive only proves that he was alive. In order for the existence of God to be proven, it would require God to prove his existence to us. But, as stated before, that would kind of nullify the whole idea of faith.
I myself believe in God, and I believe that Christ existed, and that he did great things. I am not a christian though, nor am I muslim or jewish. I simply have faith in God.

First, your commentary is filled with logical inconsistencies... If you're going to establish a belief system, at least be rational about it.
Second, history has many examples of people willing to lie, even at the cost of their life, just for a bit of fame or fortune.
As to your question about evolution, he didn't have to comment. The explanation was already given in Genesis. Get out your Hebrew and study it as a science text, not a religious document. The timeline for evolution is pretty obvious. And the question about only six days of creation vs. billions of years? Einstein proved time is relative to velocity and proximity to mass. We measure time from one velocity and one proximity to mass. A creator would measure it from the sum of all velocities of all objects. Measured from our velocity and proximity, the universe appears billions of years old. When you do the math, taking the sum of all velocities, guess how old the universe as a whole "thinks" it is? Just a bit over six days...

Speaking as a Christian, it is impossible to prove God. That being said, there are many arguments against Jesus. Not that they say he didn't exist, though. You're right, that's an established fact. The problem, as you, yourself, described it, is the question of who Jesus is. If you don't accept him as the Messiah, then you must discount most of the bible as myth, to include the old testament. If you do that, you're practically saying God isn't God. Remember, the bible says that Christ was God on earth. If you don't believe that, then you don't believe God.

Terrorists have been known to blow themselves up. Japanese Kamakazi pilots flew planes into U.S. warships. Many people throughout history have let themselves be killed for their beliefs. That doesn't establish the truth of those beliefs; it merely establishes that they are willing to die for beliefs. Now how is a dead fellow, regardless of how philosophical, any indicator of a God?

Supposing that he was the son of God, how was he going to explain to a bunch of non scholar people the origin of man and evolution...do you think they would have understood?...he wanted to get the message of God and love through to them not to create confusion...sorry about my English.
