So what if they re-write it again and say that his spirit rose and they had to keep his family a secret . Does it really matter to anyone what the truth is .
No one can prove Jesus existed in the first place . The books of the bible are as suspect as the tomb of Jesus .
No one can prove the bibles accuracy . Its a story folks . You believe it or you do not .
One way or another it can cause no harm .
Well except that dozens of wars have been caused by it . That the old testament God is so weak he resorts to violence and murder like common criminals who beat their wifes and kids today claiming that God gave them the right to handle their family the way they want . The man is the ruler of his house .
Only in the last few years have the marriage vows changed . A hundred years ago women where the servants of men . If the husband died and an un-married brother was about the wife became his according to law in almost all states .
What is the harm in religion it maintains order .

heavily - i don't care approximately Jesus. His bones rotted away alongside time in the past; yet your question lacks good judgment. First, each and every archeaologist of acceptance has stated that the conclusions you're quoting as actuality are incorrect. If Christian archeologists stated they stumbled on Goliath's bones, and different archeaologists got here out against the declare with an analogous rigidity your declare has been denounced with, you would be at here making exciting of the Christians. Secondly, the guy who made those claims has no reason to have faith Mariamne replaced into the spouse of the Jesus interior the tomb and not the spouse of any of the different adult adult males interior the tomb. Thirdly, there's no reason to have faith this mariamne replaced into Mary Magdalene and not Mary the Apple cart chick, or Mary the cleansing female, or any of the different 25% of the female Jewish inhabitants of the 1st century named some version of Mary. ultimately, there have been no bones interior the Jesus oesuary. FOr all you be attentive to this replaced into the Jesus kin tomb, that they had a bone container made for him as a 10th Birthday present day alongside with a Tickle me ELmo, and he by no potential mandatory it. you're drawing somewhat wild conclusions from little or no information. OTOH If there have been bones interior the container, that must be information it replaced into not the Christianity founding Jesus' container. Crucifixion sufferers weren't allowed to recieve burial. The gospal has to describe this away by potential of asserting Joseph of Arimethea in specific asked Pontius Pilot for Jesus' physique, and positioned it in Joseph's very own tomb.

Religion causes a lot of harm, death, and destruction.
Here are a few of the uncountable examples:
-The Salem witch burnings
-The Spanish Inquisition
-The Crusades
-The uncountable cultures that have been destroyed by missionaries in the past couple centuries
-9/11 was perpetrated by religious fanatics
-The Iraqi civil war/ sectarian conflict/ whatever that has killed many iraqis is religious in nature
-One of the charges that Socrates was convicted, and sentenced to death for, was not believe in the greek gods
-The muslims that rioted in response to the Danish cartoons of Muhammad
-The conflict in Ireland between Catholics and Protestants.
The list goes on and on and on and on.

the harm is it's antithetical to long range planning. Christianity states that it doesn't matter how the resources of this planet will be used, as all of us are to either be raptured or killed.

So what's your point. Belief in God is based on individual faith. Without faith there is no belief. Whatever proofs a person may think they have may strengthen their faith nothing more.
