Answer 1

No.
We dont talk about any other "good guys" from 2000yrs ago.
He has dominated this site.

Answer 2

Do yourself a favor and study all 5 major religions, plus a few minor ones like Zoroastrianism & Taoism, and above all, Yoga Samkaya Philosophy. Google for the legends of the young master with all the names available.
Know that "Jesus" is actually "G IS US," and "Gee" is the first sound uttered by the One Body upon observing its reflection in the Second Bardo.
Observe the same master, creating each religion (except Buddhism, created by his agent), introducing a new way of dancing, and a new way of fighting.
Like the others, Christianity was a planned religion, necessary for Man's development.
He is still around; he's always here. His body has a different name, and that he keeps somewhat private, until you are ready to treat him with due respect. His magic is unfailing but his power ebbs and flows like any other tide. The most normal of all people, he is the physical manifestation, the locus of the awareness you yourself have, right in the middle of yourself.
The only rumor about Jesus worth discussing is that he was/is a "nice" guy.

Answer 3

Well, maybe just "a normal guy" at whose birth Angels appeared to shepherds, a Star appeared to wise men in the East, One Who's coming had been foretold by the Prophets of old.

I have no idea what you mean by "a older chris angel", Jesus was the Eternal God who became Incarnate, Who died on Calvary (delivered for our offences) and the third day came alive in His glorious resurrection body (raised for our justification).

As for "real magical powers"? Well, He created the Universe; He is the One Who holds the Universe (and the atoms) together ... "in whom all things consist, hold together, have their being). It certainly is much more than "magical powers" or "slight-of-hand". If you want magic, perhaps you would be more able to find the jins and jeannies in a non-Judeo-Christian religion.

Answer 4

Do you think maybe Jesus was just a story. Even if there were rumors of a great man, someone would have wrote it down. Not waited a few decades after he had died and then started writing about it. The earliest gospel is thought to be written between 70CE and 170CE. It is a story. Many old stories stolen and put together to make the greatest myth of all times. It can't be that hard to pull of something of such enormous scale. Either Islam or Christianity did it, most likely both.

Answer 5

~~ Red Eye,,,,,So you think Chris Angel has real magical powers. He's worse than David Blaine! This is exactly how "rumors spread" and religions are started because somebody said this 'dude' has magical powers.,,, But to answer your question,,, Yes JC was a regular dude who traveled away from his homeland,,,, which are reffered to as "The Missing Years of Jesus" ,,, and spent his young adult life studying with the ascetics of India. Upon returning to his homeland at age 30, he spread his Sacred Knowledge to the Ignorant by explaining to them (us) that he is NOT creating or using Magical Powers,,, but rather WE can do the same as HE if we follow his Instruction ie: Through my KNOWLEDGE,,,, (and NOT through mere 'acceptance' of ME as the ONLY way to heaven),,,is where one finds salvation and Spiritual Awareness.

Answer 6

Jesus was a normal guy, I mean really, do you seriously think the whole immaculate conception thing is true? The child got knocked up, she didn't want to be disgraced so she made up the whole angel thing and believers kept it going when her baby was born. Which by the way was not actually on Dec. 25, did you know that? When people celebrate Christmas they are actually celebrating a pagan tradition that catholicism stole when they forced people to convert. They kept the holiday as a way of compromising

Answer 7

The Bible tells us that Jesus was God manifest in the flesh. He is not a myth,nor something to mock. He was not rumored to be great. He was great. You can believe that or reject it, as God gives us free choice. But, we will each be held accountible for the choices we do make.
Instead of mocking God on these Christian sites, why dont you get a Bible and start studying for yourself. Jesus is coming soon, and if you arent ready to meet Him when He comes , you will be lost. Nothing is worth that. Ger serious and start studying for yourself. what if you are wrong???????? what an awful price to pay for not examing this for yourself with all you have. PPL have time to go to sports activites, and do all kinds of things, but few take time for God, and remember, Jesus died on the cross for all our sins, and ppl like you dont seem to think it was enough. It causes him more grat pain, to hear ppl like you, ppl that mock Him and reject Him. But you wont be laughing on judging day, which will then be too late, and remember, God doesnt condemn someone to hell, He doesnt reject us. PPl either reject God or accept Him, and they write their own path of where they go. Be sure you make the right choice.

Answer 8

Understandable thought, but how many of them throughout history gave their lives for any cause. What has any man to gain by sacrificing his life on a cross. Jesus suffered unimaginable pain to save all humanitys souls from eternall death.. He was beaten starved dehydrated had a large crown of thorns smashed onto his head and then had large nails hammered into his feet and hands. He then suffercated and bled to death very slowly on that cross.. You know he did this to save a very selfish and unkind people as also the just as well . Do you know anybody today that would do that for humanity. I dont think so..

Answer 9

No, it is not likely.....for this one reason and many others. How can a man named, Jesus, fulfill all prophecy before his existence upon Earth? How likely can it be for this man, whom many have prophecied about years before he came to earth, that he would do certain things that no other man could have done. Exactly how do you explain such phenomena like the day going dark at the exact timing of his death(this is recorded in Roman history)?

There are so many factors that play into the existence of Jesus and many things he performed and did that just could not have been coincedence.......the probability is just not so.

Jesus was the Son of God....He is our saviour.

Answer 10

Jesus was great You can try but you cannot take that away from Him. He was no angel. He was not the son of God. God has no family. He was a prophet like some before him and some after him

Answer 11

No. Jesus as defined within the Bible has not anything in ordinary with leprechauns. - Leprechauns are local to Ireland. Jesus was once a local of Palestine. - Leprechauns are approximately six inches tall. Jesus was once most likely of typical top. - Leprechauns have pots of gold. Jesus ostensibly presents non secular treasure. - Leprechauns are forced to polish sneakers. Jesus washed the ft of his disciples. Okay, that's kind of a borderline connection.
