Is it some genetic propensity of extraordinary desire to be something above and beyond? Or just a genetic defect?

BTW I have read the King James version of the Bible Cover to cover, as well as excerpts from other versions that disagree with that version. So PLEASE no "I bet he never even read the Bible quotes! How do you know Jesus was not a MYTH?

Not sure what you mean by Biblical babble. But Christianity is not about people who think they are "better" than others. In fact, Christians are people (or should be) who recognize that they are sinners, and can't fix themselves! So we should be the most humble people on the earth. I will grant you that there are plenty of Christians who don't fit that bill. But that doesn't mean Christianity is wrong...

Anyway, how do I know Jesus is not a myth. There is overwhelming historical evidence of His life. There were hundreds of people who would have gladly rebutted the disciples, had they been able to do so. Many, many people have verified the great evidence for His life, death, and resurrection. I believe in Jesus because He is the only one who has risen from the dead. Well, at first that was why I believed in Him. Now, I interact with Him on a daily basis, and now that He is alive and real because of all the ways He helps me and the changes He has made in my life. Below is a quote from a historian you may find of interest.

I claim to be an historian. My approach to Classics is historical. And I tell you that the evidence for the life, the death, and the resurrection of Christ is better authenticated than most of the facts of ancient history . . .

You refer to the appeal of "Biblical Babble" as evidence of a genetic defect and yet even the most casual glance at History clearly shows that some of the most brilliant minds of the past 2000 years have been devout Christians.

How can you blatently ignore History like this? Why does ignoring the clear evidence of History appeal to you? Do you enjoy making statements that are completely unsupported by the Historical record?

Higher mathematics is 'babble' to me. Because I do not understand it. But that does not mean it is irrelevant. The same with the Bible. because of the false teachings of organised religion, to many people IT IS BABBLE. And where did babble come from? Babylon, or Babel. Genesis ch. 10 & 11.
When the Bible is studied free of their influence, it becomes clear and is like God speaking to us. Example. Where was Jesus before he was SENT to earth for us?. answer..Proverbs 8; 22-31. Look it up..in ANY Bible.

This "babble" is appealing because all that education you have via our nations tax payers is worth just about as much as the paper it's printed on when your dead! After that, you don't have any say in what happens to your soul, it's completely up to the Judge of the universe.
Most people who appreciate this "babble" figure it's best to understand this whole eternal thing now, when you can still make a choice.

I think there were some independent Roman records as to the execution of a Jesus of Nazareth. As far as the mythology of the Bible, well that is a matter for a few million other questions and answers which i do not even want to entertain.

The question is getting old...if you read the Bible then you should know that it is true...how can all these writings be handed down from generation to generation and not be true...most parts were writin hundreds of years apart and still refer to the same things over and over...theres no way that such a giant puzzle could actually fit together like it dose...its amazing how you can jump around the Bible from verse to verse and chapter to chapter and find the same meaning that was writin a thousand years earlier....and then was writin a thousand years later...there arent even books like that today....its real............................................... Ok....this is the answer to your second remark....just because your smart....doesnt mean your wise...

Actually, modern biblical scholarship makes a VERY compelling case for the idea that Jesus was entirely a fabrication... a myth. See "The Jesus Puzzle", for example:

Because the bible is a way for the church to control people. Therefore the church uses the bible to lure weak minded people to them to profit from them. And the weak follow and give their money willingly.

Actually there is record in a Roman report of the time that He existed.

Because this life and everything in it is fading away fast and there is nothing you or anyone but Jesus Christ..can do about it, all Satan and this world have to offer is going to be dust in the wind soon....... and people want to have eternal life and not eternal death Because Death is on its way for us all soon... But with Christ, we will not see death but have everlasting Life....Glory to God forever......Amen
