Why dont you believe that?

Question

Jesus was born to a virgin, you believe it, Karna (of mahabaratha) was born to sun god as his mother was looking at the sun and came out through the ear, why dont you believe that?

are you saying mary was surrogate mother

Answer 1

Actually, I don't believe either. Both are preposterous.

Answer 2

To the Jesus comment:
Because while it is possible to give birth even if you didn't do the deed, nowadays, the technology wasn't around back than, and because it's what the Bible says and I believe nothing from that book.

To the Karna comment:
I've never heard of that at all.

Answer 3

1) Because Biblical mythology is superficially realistic. There is a big difference between saying that a virgin conceived and saying that a woman gave birth out of her ear. 2) Religious faith is always a subjective choice, by definition. That's like saying, "If you believe that George Washington chopped down a cherry tree, then why don't you believe that the earth is flat?" Not exactly equivalent, is it?

Answer 4

We know for scientific fact a virgin birth is possible, artificial insemination.No one ever gave birth through a ear.

Answer 5

I don't believe either. I believe the Earth is our Mother and we need to behave better or She is going to throw a fit and put us all in a time out.

Answer 6

Or that Athena was born out of Zeus' head for that matter.

Answer 7

Where there is no evidence, there is no crime. Why should any sane, intelligent person accept something on blind faith for which there is no credible documentation or evidence? Blind faith only leads to long lines for kool-aid in Jonestown.

Answer 8

huh?
