He gets up after being dead three days, and starts walking around like nothing ever happened? Then rose into the sky, right?
Earlier he had said he would send a sacred ghost to keep them company until he gets back, okay? (He had also said "Except ye drink my blood and eat my flesh...")
A week later they convene a big meeting, and the sacred ghost shows up, only it's Jesus' uncle wearing a sheet.
He serves wine and muffins, and before long they are speaking in a language they do not even understand...
Question: Is this the scenario? The origins of Christianity?
One more question: Is Christianity creepy?
Or is it a lot of fun? If you enjoy creepy things can it be a lot of fun?

THANKS, BANDYCAT, I FORGOT TO MENTION ALL THE DEAD PEOPLE THAT CAME TO LIFE AND STARTED WALKING THE STREETS WHEN JESUS WAS BURIED.

Also all the dead people who walked the streets after Jesus died. The best horror story of the 1st Century.
And that stuff about drinking blood & eating flesh. I think that's called cannibalism. And the Christians can't wait to get their share. Yum Yum.
Creepy is a nice way to say disgusting.

Jesus did not become a god when he ascended into Heaven, he already was God. Other than that you are pretty close to the scenario...but, Christianity began when Christ was resurrected from the dead, when he defeated death. And then as promised, he appeared to his disciples, and as predicted the Pentecost occurred. I don't think anyone wearing a sheet appeared at the Pentecost, unless it was a toga or something. But instead it was like tongues of fire that came down upon them. Christianity is not creepy...some Christians can be creepy, some Buddhists can be creepy too, some atheists can be creepy too....

Sounds like Christianity is starting to get to ya! Lots of silly uneducated comments comming from you today uh? You seem to enjoy verbally knocking around what appears to not make any sense to you, but in reality, your words only show you are really beginning to question this religion called Christianity - almost as if someone who is curious, yet doesn't have enough knowledge to comment in an adult manner.....but rather, comments with silly negative remarks.
If you also read about other religions of the world (or even bothered to study the Bible and history of religions, you would see just how immature your comments really are.
They don't offend me - I just wonder how old you are.
I know it's hard for a person with who cares to understand a person who doesn't whether you agree with them or not. But you are pretty easy to understand. Regardless what religion (if any) you are, why not educate yourself on the entire picture of that religion instead of picking out parts and making them look silly. That's insulting to anyone. And I think you're a better person than what you just portrayed.

Yes, creepy, isn't it. Read The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins, now number 8 on the NY Times best seller list. You are obviously bright enough to follow the arguments.

Jesus did no longer exchange right into a god. He grew to become into already area of the holy trinity. For the Eucharist area approximately eating flesh, it grew to become into metaphorical. He gave his disciples bread and wine in memory of him so as that god might understand that guy did understand jesus grew to become into his son. And he did no longer pass away his lifeless physique, he ascended into heaven physique and soul and on the third day he got here back in his divine form. You of course did no longer study the bible, and in case you probably did you in all risk did no longer comprehend any of it.

No, Jesus coming was foretold by the prophets hundreds of years before he arrived. I don't consider Christianity to be anything but peaceful and a good guide for living life.

You speak of earthly things and say you cannot understand them, how then will you understand heavenly things?
You need an interpreter. You need the Holy Spirit. Without Him you will never understand spiritual things, because they are spiritually discerned. Do you really want to understand or are you just playing around? God knows your heart.
God loves you and so do I.

I think you need a much better understanding of Jesus the Christ. I suggest you read the Bible and other books related to Jesus. Seek and ye shall find.
